Day Tote
$19.00 – $22.00The Day Tote is the perfect sized bag for all of your needs whether it’s for groceries, the beach, the gym or work. We were inspired by the ‘everyday tote – the workhorse of the bag department. We wanted to elevate this concept and create something more beautiful and functional than the standard tote.
The design features of the Day Tote include a roomy interior with side panels, a base panel, a total of four handy pockets including a laptop pocket for devices or books. Decorative piping not only adds a pop of colour but helps the bag retain its structure and the dual handles look stylish as well as making the bag comfortable and user friendly.
Dimensions: 40cm x 28cm x 18cm
