Transforming heritage into modern luxury

North & Knox reimagines the iconic LL Bean Boat & Tote with elevated hardware, refined finishes, and unmatched craftsmanship. This edition begins with a rare 1970's Classic Red tote, reworked into a one-of-a-kind statement piece.

The Details

  • Authentic Large LL Bean Boat & Tote in Classic Red

  • Finished bag size approx. 13" H × 16" W × 5.5" D (sizes may vary slightly depending on original bag and usable fabric)

  • Fully reworked with premium gold-finish hardware and reinforced detailing

  • Includes custom dust bag

  • Preorder item – estimated ship time: approx. 2–3 weeks

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.
