Lands’ End Crossgrain Canvas Tote is the ultimate beach bag
One of the best parts of summer is spending an entire day at the beach or the pool. It’s the perfect getaway, because you are compelled to unplug and relax. But while a day on the water means leaving it all behind, you still need to haul a LOT of stuff with you, particularly if you have kids.
That’s where Lands’ End comes in.
The Lands’ End Crossgrain Canvas Tote is perhaps the ideal beach bag. It’s huge, for starters, big enough for four towels, six pairs of goggles, two snorkels, and enough diving toys for an army of kids, among other things. It has great pockets — three small ones inside that are just the right size for sunscreen and tissues and your wallet, and one on the outside that will keep your cell phone away from the wet stuff. The inside also has one long side pocket with a strap, for things you want to keep separate from the rest of the jumble, like your magazine or book. And it has the all-important key hook, because who wants to dig through a bag this size looking for the car keys at the end of the day?
Not me, I’ll tell you what.
The Crossgrain Tote is made of sturdy canvas that stands up on its own and dries easily. It comes in four gender-neutral color combinations, which means that your husband won’t have any excuse not to take it — and the kids — to the pool on his own. And the straps are the perfect length for hand or shoulder toting.
The Crossgrain Tote retails for $39.50 and can be monogrammed for an extra $5.00.
