The Boat Tote, a Summertime Favorite, Is Now a Street Style Essential

This season at the spring 2024 menswear shows, one bag made its rounds on the arms of best-dressed men: the classic L.L.Bean boat tote. Coming in at just under $45, this tote is beloved by many for its accessibility and practicality—it was made to lug all your dry-land essentials onto, well, a boat, so it will certainly fit in your everyday items too. The best part about it, though, is that it can be personalized; wear yours with a classic monogram embroidery or experiment with funny words or even pins and patches. Scroll through for the best boat totes in street style here.
