Tote Bags
Tote bags earn their place by being the easiest thing in the house to pick up on the way out. Ours open wide at the top, so a laptop, a jumper and the shopping all go in without a fight.

Everyday Tote Bags and Shoulder Bags
A tote gets used without being thought about, which is close to the best thing you can say about any bag. It holds a laptop and a lunch on a weekday, then does the market on a Saturday morning. Our Women's Bags & Backpacks page holds the rest of the range. A tote has no frame to spread the load, so we keep the cut simple and the handles wide enough to sit on a shoulder.
Carrying a Tote Through the Week
A tote does not belong to a season, which is why it stays in use when the coats change over. A tote in black or natural brown goes with a coat in winter and a shirt in summer without any thought. Nothing here needs looking after beyond the occasional wipe, which suits a bag that lives in the boot of a car. A tote also travels well, going into a suitcase flat and coming out ready to carry a day of shopping. The men's side of the same shapes sits under Men's Bags & Backpacks.
