The 'Local' Graphic Tote is a cotton canvas shoulder tote with one word printed large in a soft retro serif across natural cream canvas. It measures 15.4" W x 14.2" H x 4.7" D with a 10.6" strap drop, stays open at the top, holds two slip pockets inside, and packs down flat when you are not using it.

The whole design is one word

Nothing else on it. That is why it sits as easily with a linen shirt on a Saturday morning as with a work jacket on a Tuesday. The lettering comes in green or navy, both printed on the same natural cotton.

Where the work went

Handles are the first thing to go on a cheap tote. Here the cotton webbing runs down the panel and is cross-stitched at each join, which is why the bag keeps its shape once it is loaded. The body is 100% cotton with no lining at all — less weight to carry, and it collapses small enough to live in a suitcase pocket until you need it.

The details

• Open top. Nothing to unfasten — reach in with one hand while the other holds your coffee.
• Two inside pockets. One sized for a phone or thin paperback, one small enough that cards and keys stay findable.
• Shoulder or hand. The 10.6" drop clears a coat without dragging.
• Unisex. Green or navy on the same natural cotton — nothing about it is gendered.
• Washable, reusable. Wash it, dry it, keep using it.

Care

Cool hand wash, mild soap, hang dry. No washer, no dryer. Imported.
