Tibi and L.L. Bean collaborated on a re-imaged version of the iconic L.L. Bean Boat and Tote. Should you splurge on it? Read my full review of the belted tote bag after testing it for a month to see if it’s worth the money.
The L.L. Bean Boat and Tote was first introduced in 1944 as the Bean Ice Carrier, a simple bag designed to help people transport ice blocks to their home freezers. It was a workhorse, made from strong and durable canvas with no distinct design features aside from two handles and a flat bottom.
I love the look of the bag and the neutral tones make it so easy to style, but I didn’t reach for it as much as I thought I would because it doesn’t have interior or exterior pockets. I have way too much stuff — and I’m too unorganized — to carry a pocketless tote as my everyday work bag. I was looking forward to getting a ton of wear out of the detachable belt, but unfortunately, it was too big for me.
