Leather Tote Bag

Vegetable tanned calf leather is the honest choice: tanned with tree bark instead of chemicals, it starts firm and matte and breaks in to a glossy, hand rubbed patina that is unique to how you carry it. This is genuine top grade hide, handcrafted by Scully, a leather house since 1906. The tote is built big, for a laptop, a folder, a water bottle and the rest, with a magnetic snap at the top and one open pocket front and inside.

The interior is left unlined, which is a flex: it means the leather is good enough on both sides to show. Carry it to work, to the market, onto a plane. In five years it will be the best looking thing you own.
