Twenty-two inches wide and 13 inches deep, this canvas tote takes a load rather than a handful: groceries, beach blankets, a hobby project, an armful of laundry. A vinyl lining inside resists water, and four exterior pockets keep smaller things from sinking to the bottom of the bag.
Four roomy pockets ride on the outside, each closing with Velcro so keys, sunscreen, or scissors stay put on the walk to the car. Nothing has to be dug out from beneath the main load, which is the usual failure of a single-compartment bag pressed into service for errands.
The canvas body is lined with water-resistant vinyl, a combination that handles damp towels, a leaking carton, or a wet swimsuit without soaking through to whatever the tote is set on. Wiping the interior out is straightforward, so the same bag moves from beach duty to laundry duty.
Two handles allow either a shoulder carry or a two-handed lift once the 11 by 22 by 13 inch interior is full. That width takes a folded blanket flat or a week of towels, and the Sea Shell print keeps a working bag from looking like equipment when it sits by the door.
Six magnetic pieces, four hinges and two handles, that give a plain steel garage door a carriage-door look.
