I am looking to purchase one of the xtra-large canvas totes to double as a carry on/beach bag for an upcoming cruise. I've heard great things about both. I'm having a hard time deciding which to go with. Here's my dilema
Lands' End:
Pros: has multiple pockets inside, a wider range of color choices
Cons: most of the reviews indicate they wish the straps were longer so when full and carrying it on your shoulder, it would be more comfortable.
LLBean:
Pros: has the option of ordering longer straps
Cons: no pockets inside, not a wide range of color options
Do any of you own either of these? What are your thoughts? I'm leaning toward the LLBean because being able to carry it on my shoulder is kinda important to me. However, Lands End has better color choices and I'm not sure if I will miss the inside pockets. Decisions, decisions.
Re: Not really "Fashion/Beauty" but Lands' End or LLBean Canvas Totes
Lands End has an a long strap option.
Large open top
Large open top colored canvas on sale for $31.99 and 3% ebates
Personally, I would end up using a bag more that was comfortable to carry around but may not have enough pockets (LLB) verses having enough pockets but not comfortable to carry (LE). Like a PP said, you can use things such as coin purses to keep things separate.
