The Original Market Tote
The Original Market Tote
Durable, stylish, and made with a zero-waste ethos. Use this tote on the go for your everyday carry needs: running errands, browsing the farmer's market, or picking up a library book.
The fabric is an incredible 32oz selvedge canvas used for industrial applications and bags that require the utmost in durability. It's also called a No. 2 Duck (the fewer the ducks, the thicker the fabric) or a 2/0 "Naught" canvas. It's got a lot of structure and feels like it could stop a broadsword.
The straps are hand-riveted using classic copper rivets, and the hand-embossed outer leather pocket is a handy spot for a phone or notebook. The leather is Wickett & Craig USA veg-tanned English bridle leather. The leather will soften over time, but remain incredibly strong.
