The North & Knox Difference

Every Birk & Tote is handcrafted one at a time. No two pieces are alike, making yours as individual as the story behind it.

The Character of Vintage

Each Birk & Tote begins with an authentic, pre-loved LL Bean Boat & Tote. This isn't a compromise - it's intentional. The used canvas brings a softness and lived-in character that new fabric simply cannot replicate. Every tote is hand-washed and carefully scrubbed as part of the transformation process, creating a supple, broken-in feel from day one. Subtle variations in canvas, stitching, or wear are part of its heritage, adding individuality and soul that cannot be manufactured.
