Tote bag

Tote bag

A tote bag is a large handheld bag or purse that is used to carry things, such as books, beach wear, or everyday items. A tote bag is normally made of treated canvas, nylon or heavy pebbled leather. Some totes come with a zipper compartment that divides the bag into sections.

Many major fashion brands sell tote bags. A few of them are Abercrombie & Fitch, Burberry, Gucci, Hollister, Louis Vuitton and Prada. The price range of these bags varies from very cheap to extremely expensive depending on the brand. The cheapest totes are normally brandless or are counterfeited versions of originals.
