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

We bought the extra large with the zip too. It is huge but so perfect for carrying all the stuff for our two dogs for weekend trips.

Go-To Beach bag. Great construction and timeless look. Will have for years.

first time I ordered my tote with zipper and its better that I thought, well made and extremely large top when open

Cannot say enough great things about my Boat and Tote. It's easily become my favorite bag for a number of reasons- it's durable, holds everything I could possibly need, is easy to "tote" around, and I love adding the embroidery to add a cheeky phrase. Mine says "Not Chill" and it gets lots of good laughs and reactions.

I have the small to use as a purse. Medium to use in the car to store things. Also use both medium and large for knitting projects. Just a great tote and lasts forever.

Quality of these totes is impeccable. I wound up getting one of every size. Great for travel or days on the beach or camping

Bag seems durable and well made. Bought it for my sister as a gift to replace the very worn out one she has had for over 30 years! Hoping this one is just as sturdy!

Great tote bag!! We use it all the time for road trips, around town, etc.

Obsessed! The perfect size and great quality! I can already tell this is going to be with me for many adventures

Loved this purchase! The bag is well made, holds an impressive amount of items, and the color is gorgeous! It shipped a week before they predicted, too.

Great purchase ! For toss and go - get your zip top ! If you intend on wearing bag over- your - shoulder then long handles. I did spring for embroidery- it was perfect! I used it for the first time for a trip and it fit my big iPad Pro, knitting, book, lunch kit and water bottle , with room to Spare . I also got the small ,zip top, with long handles to toss my purse in, and both bags fit under the seat in front of me in the plane . Excellent quality and construction .

I got this blue , medium , zip top, with Long Handles for my 14 year old son to use to carry his iPad Pro , and Quest. It arrived in time for our trip to Boston, and he used it for his airport bag. Perfect bag ! Fit his lunch kit, iPad in it's case, assorted odds and ends, water bottle, and journal - with room to spare . It slid perfectly under the seat in front of him on the plane. I did get embroidery , it came out perfect ! First time to use recommended color thread and it matches perfectly !

You can't go wrong with a Boat and Tote ! If you are like me and toss things when you are in a rush - get the zip top. If you intend on wearing it over your shoulder , get the long handles . I use a teeny tiny purse for everyday use and bought this small bag for the airport . I had plenty of room to toss my purse in, car keys and extras like my battery pack , charging cables , ect. It is the perfect size, plus my leather purse is protected when you have to put this under the seat in front of you on the plane.

My favorite gift to customize and give, always a hit, top quality, I've had mine for about 30 years.

Amazing quality! Absolutely worth every penny. And it looks fantastic too!

Really good quality and nice embroidery. The zipper was a little tricky the first time, but works fine now.

I absolutely love my bag! I ordered size large with extra long handles. It's perfect. Great quality!

Wonderful structure and quality. Light blue monogram turned out perfect!

Such a great bag. I use it as a weekender bag for weekend trips and overnights at my bf's. It's so versatile and takes me back to my childhood days. I got my initials on it and it just completes the bag.

Amazing Quality! Absolutely love it! I am considering getting another one in a smaller size to use as an everyday bag!

I have bought several of these over the years for myself and as gifts. These are great, made well and perfect colors.

Outstanding quality, use it to care blankets/gloves for high school football games

Our nanny loved this as a gift! Very durable and looks so nice!

Can't go wrong with this tote, a great gift that the recipient loved.

Inspired by @ironicboatandtote, such a good purchase!
