Description
A large tote bag for everything you carry in a day
This tote bag is big, soft and simple: one wide compartment, an open top and two long handles that sit on the shoulder. The supplier lists it as large, about 41 cm wide.
The material is PU leather, which is faux leather. An earlier title on this page said leather; that was wrong and we have corrected it. There are four colours: black, coffee brown, brown and beige.

The piece: a soft shopper in faux leather
Our supplier describes a classic tote bag in PU leather, size large, imported without a country named, and gives one measurement. The rest we take from the photos.
The bag flares open at the top and has a seam down the centre of the front. The handles are thin and rolled, and they pass through loops instead of being stitched flat onto the bag. The surface is matt with a crinkled, slightly worn-in look. A small logo is pressed into the front near the base; it is too small to read in the pictures.
Who it's for
For you if your bag has to take a laptop sleeve, a lunch box, a cardigan and still close under your arm. A soft tote this wide swallows a lot.
The top is open in every photo and no zip is visible. If you want your things zipped away on public transport, take that into account.

Materials and build: PU, stated plainly
The supplier's spec says PU leather. That is a faux leather made of a fabric base with a polyurethane coating; it is lighter than hide and wipes clean with a damp cloth.
We have no information on the lining, on inside pockets or on a base panel, and the photos do not show the inside clearly enough to describe it.
Size and dimensions: about 41 cm wide
The supplier gives one figure: 40.9 cm, listed as length. On a tote that is the width. Height, depth and the drop of the handles are not in the data.
From the photos the handles are long enough to carry the bag on the shoulder over a coat, with the top of the bag sitting under the arm. Take that as an impression from the pictures.
Dimensions (cm)
| Size | Width |
|---|---|
| One size | 40.9 |

Styling: the bag that goes with a trench
The photos pair the black and the coffee brown with a beige trench coat, and the brown and beige with black. Those are the obvious matches and they work.
The cognac brown has the warmer tone and looks good with blue jeans. The beige is the lightest and will show marks soonest, so it suits you if you are careful with your bags.
Occasions
Use it for work, for study, for a day of shopping or as the bag that takes your gym kit along with everything else. As a weekend bag it will hold a change of clothes, though without a zip you would not want to turn it upside down.
Care: no instructions from the supplier
The supplier gives no care instructions. Faux leather is usually wiped with a soft damp cloth and kept away from heat. Treat that as general practice for the material, not as advice from the maker.
The wow detail: handles through loops
The handles are not sewn onto the bag in the usual way. Each one runs through a small loop on the panel, which leaves a neat oval where it enters. It is a quiet detail that makes a plain shopper look designed.
