Lands' End Canvas Tote Review!

Two months ago, I took the plunge and finally ordered my very own Lands' End Canvas Tote! I had never had one before, so I was a little overwhelmed as to what color, size and style to order. I was also nervous about the quality of the bags in general. Now that I've had time to try mine out, take it on vacation and really evaluate the quality of the bag, I wanted to share my thoughts with you!

*I was not paid in any way for this review
The bag that I ordered was the exact same as the one shown above. More specifically, it was the Large Natural Open Top Canvas Tote in "Shock Blue". It can be found here.

You may have seen my post in May about some fab deals I had found. This Lands' End tote was one of them! I was able to go online, order it, add my monogram, have it shipped and use a 30% off coupon, all in about 15 minutes! I got everything for just over $35.00 total. I was so excited!
It arrived on my doorstep in just a few days, ready for my next trip or excursion! When my family headed off to Hilton Head a few weeks later, this was the first bag I grabbed! It held a ton of stuff and functioned perfectly as a beach bag for the whole day! The large tote gave me enough room to put bottles of water, extra clothes, towels, books, etc. Everything I needed for the beach fit in this bag!
The only down side...it can get a bit heavy, so you may want to enlist someone to help you out when it's full!

When the website says large, they're not kidding, this is a big bag! Take a look at the size difference beside of my large Longchamp bag.

This is also what most people mentioned in their review of the tote on the Lands' End site. It's hard to tell from the computer just how big the bag is!

I would describe the L.E Tote as more of a weekender bag. The inside features five pockets of varying sizes, one button closure on the largest pocket and one lobster claw clip for your keys.

There's also one large pocket on the bag's front, which works perfectly for quick access!

Overall, I have thoroughly enjoyed having my new L.E Tote. Its great quality material and beautiful turquoise color really turn heads at the beach, plus you can't beat that price! I would definitely buy this bag again (in another color of course), and it's the perfect gift for friends! Who doesn't love a great monogrammed tote for $35.00!

Are you a fan of the Lands' End Tote?

  4. Thank you for your posts on these totes! They have helped me decide to order one, and which size. Much more helpful than the images on their site, especially since they never show the interior pockets, which make this bag awesome!
