Brown leather tote bag

 

A simple brown leather bag to fit almost any occasion and any outfit. Big enough to carry your essentials and always room for a little extra. Also small enough to not call it a shopper. I make sure these bags are double stitched where it matters so they last a long time.

Where does the name ‘tote bag’ come from according to Wikipedia:

The term tote or tate, meaning “to carry”, can be traced back to the 17th century but was not used to describe bags until 1900. However, the tote bag craze in the United States began in the 1940s with the release of L.L. Bean’s Boat Bag in 1944. Because they were easier than carrying luggage, most people opted for using tote bags. During the 1950s, tote bags began to enter into the main culture. Women primarily utilized them as practical handheld bags because they didn’t require much care. It wasn’t until the 1960s when the tote bag embraced personal style. Bonnie Cashin released her own line of tote bags called Cashin Carry Tote Bags which combined style and functionality. In the 1990s, Kate Spade ultimately transformed how American culture embraced tote bags when she began carrying them as fashion bags. Today, fashion lovers and consumers can find tote bags in a variety of decorations and themes.
