Tote-ally Ready: Your Ultimate Beach Bag Guide For Men

6 May 2024

After examining the ideal women’s carry-alls for seaside getaways, we just couldn’t leave the gents behind. Whether you are exploring untamed shores or lounging at chic beach clubs, there has to be a spacious holiday buddy that fits everything you need. Dive into our curated guide for men and end the era of overstuffed pockets!

Humble canvas tote

It can’t get easier than that: simple but roomy, durable, and lightweight, this guy is ready to face everything you are up to. From snacks and sunscreen to beach blankets, towels, and umbrellas, a decent canvas tote will effortlessly accommodate it all and match any outfit as a bonus point.

Pick the one that works best for your lifestyle. Models with open tops and double-length handles fit more and are comfortable to carry in different ways, which you will definitely appreciate on a hot summer day. The ones with zippers and additional pockets help keep your stuff organised and secured.

Style tip: give it a personal touch! Check out brands that offer embroidery service or just grab some iron-on patches.

Classy leather-trimmed tote

Same idea and function, but a bit more sophisticated. Want to elevate your style game? Complicate and add details!

Adventurous duffle

A duffle bag, also known as a weekender, is a reliable companion for short trips and activities. Designed to allocate a few sets of clothes, it can serve you at the beach as well, holding all that you can possibly think of, including small sports equipment.

Even though its long cylindrical shape, short handles, and long, often padded adjustable strap accommodate a load evenly for a comfortable carry, don’t put extra weight on your shoulders with fully leather models — go for breathy fabric materials instead.

Relaxed raffia basket

Not a single bag can give you as much of a tropical, laid-back vibe as a woven raffia basket, so why limit yourself? Choose structured geometrical oversized styles, and be assured that you will stand out.

Easy-going backpack

Used to be light-handed? Just squeeze your must-haves into a backpack and keep your hands free for fun! Step away from boring sporty models and broaden your horizons: play with shapes, materials, and details. For the beach try a sack backpack in earthy colors: the ties on the top will leave some room for your towel to stick out while storing other belongings safely underneath.

Show-off bag

Want to make a statement? Forget about quiet luxury and let your beach bag scream with colours, patterns, and craftsmanship. Grass-green tote made from leather that pretends to be a tropical plant leaf? That is the level of eccentricity you are aiming for.
