Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Zip Top Boat and Tote Large

Exactly what I was looking for! This tote was the perfect size and color. It's very high quality and super cute

I'm in love with my new medium size (long handles) boat and tote bag in the mauve (purple) color. The size is perfect to use as a workbag or a daily tote bag if you have kiddo items to carry daily (diapers/wipes/etc). There is a ton of space, especially if you use the extra room at the top when zippering. It is pictured with the LLBean personal organizer toiletry kit, a Nalgene 32oz. water bottle, a folder, and Vera Bradley mini cosmetic bag. I added a carabiner clip to the inside tag to add a space to hang/hide my pepper spray, & to hang my keys. I have an extra large boat and tote bag from about 14 years ago, which has been through four children, and on every vacation (even drug through sand on the beach), and is still in tiptop working condition (see last photo). These bags will truly last forever! Cannot wait to order more :-)

My wife has a 20 year old medium version of the Boat and Tote that is finally starting to wear through. I wanted to get this replacement for her birthday as a nice surprise. The store near us didn't have the long-strap option, so they quickly put me on the phone to get it shipped to my home. This bag is just a flawless as the previous version, shipping was quick and convenient, and I look forward to seeing my wife use it for another 2 decades.

Love the tote. Well made and will be great for traveling. I have several Bean totes and know they are very durable.

Great size and super durable! Love it! Super cute for everyday or traveling!

This is a great tote. It ended up being a little bigger than I anticipated but it will work for me.

Love this bag and it's perfect for every day wear. The customer service alone will get me to repurchase from them.

Obsessed with this tote. It is so convenient. I love the longer straps and love the zip top option. It adds a little more color on the inside. Super spacious and I get compliments galore over this bag

The iconic classic. So durable and great looking. Have several and they are the best!

The personalized tote with zipper appears to be sturdy and well made. The embroidery is stitched securely and looks handsome in a coordinating color.

I love each and every tote I order! I use my zip one for my purse with 2 zip pouches purchased also to keep purse organized. Purchased multiple sizes and different colors. I love the choices and monogram choices and colors for threads. Highly recommended for any type use!!

I bought this small bag to carry my dogs things when we go out and it's the perfect size. I also love the zipper closing to be sure nothing falls out.

Gorgeous bag. Love that you can embroider your name.

Solid and sturdy. I can see this lasting a lifetime. I'm sorry I didn't get it sooner!

Love this bag. Stands up on its own. I got the M bad with the long straps. It fits a good amount of stuff

Love the boat bag! Great, strong material, stylish, nice monogram. Quick delivery.

My absolute favorite purchase of 2024 so far. Wonderful quality, can't wait to use this for years to come! And it so pretty!

It fits everything I need it to fit and the handle being long is fantastic.

This bag is wonderful! The quality is unbeatable. The customer service was amazing, my bag was delivered with a small slash due to shipping and they shipped me a new one the same day! The embroidery was perfect and the bag itself is very sturdy and the colors are beautiful. Also the zipper is the best quality zipper I've ever seen!

Love it. Took it on vacation and it was literally my airport bag, beach bag, everyday bag!

We use this bag for everything. From school/daycare to skiing. The large is perfect for our needs and the zipper keeps the chaos contained.

This is my new favorite bag!! I absolutely love the quality of the materials. The bag stands up on its own and is sturdy against things it bumps into. I have a medium with long straps and its perfect for day to day. I work from home and I can fit my work laptop, my crossbody bag, a binder, an owala bottle, and any other small items. This bag was so worth the purchase!

Bottom line you need this bag. I purchased the medium and XL tote and they don't disappoint. The quality of these bags are top notch not to mention the sturdiness/durability. I have a feeling these bags are going to last a long time.

Beautiful work. I've ordered 4 for gifts and they were all excellent!

My favorite overnight and travel bag. Durable and fits so much stuff!
