Read MoreFor any leather tote bag you're considering, make sure it is made with full grain leather. It's important because if the leather doesn't have the grain on it, it will fall apart at a young age. Every leather hide naturally comes with grain as the top layer. Those are the tightly woven fibers that naturally protect the cow. But hides are naturally thick too, so tanneries usually split them in half, the top from the bottom. Now they have two hides they can sell. One expensive hide with all of the strong grain and one cheap low quality hide that looks nice but isn't. That leather is great for decorative leather parts, but not for leather tote bags that get stress and wear. This is the main difference between cheap totes and expensive ones. The quality of the leather.
---I designed this tote to be simple and no fuss, yet totally versatile. It's the perfect everyday carry bag and allows you to toss your daily necessities inside and go. The tote is also lightweight and somewhat unstructured or floppy.

---I designed this tote because I wanted something that was simplistic and no fuss, yet versatile. This bag is just that. It is a great everyday leather tote bag for the person who wants to be able to throw anything in their bag and go. It can really carry a lot. I also wanted something that was lightweight and somewhat unstructured or floppy.&&How do I wear it? It's such a versatile bag, I carry it for all sorts of purposes including an everyday purse when I'm running here and there from home to office to store (most days). The style is really simple and goes with any outfit, casual or dressed up. I love that it keeps everything together effortlessly and is so easy to get things in and out quickly. I throw my leather clutch purse in here or the Koroha bag alone with my keys, laptop and sometimes iPad. There's a lot of room in this tote! I also like that I can fold it up and fit it in my luggage to use when traveling.
This bag is very soft and light weight. I own the tobacco color and it goes with everything that I wear. I love it because I can put as little or as much as I want to in it. I took it to my honeymoon and I wore it as a beach bag. Very high quality leather and well worth the buy.

I love this bag!!! Wow, it is so beautiful. I picked the tobacco color and mine is darker than the picture, I really love the color! I have expensive bags, but they don't even come close to what you are getting with this bag. Finally, a bag that fits everything!

I ordered this bag on a whim, since my previous large nylon tote that was my every day carry started wearing out. I wasn't sure that I'd like it, but had heard so many good things about Love 41 that I figured it was worth a try. This bag was on back order (which shows how awesome it is), and I received it a few days ago. Wow. The leather is soft, buttery, and thick, and yet the bag is light and great for someone who is on the move. The tobacco color is so versatile, it'll be easy to transition between seasons and goes with everything. The construction is solid, so I had no problem stuffing it with my laptop, two binders, books, and all my other gear (I'm a doctoral student and work full time). I thought I'd be bothered by no internal pockets, but I rarely used them anyway in my other nylon tote so it hasn't been an issue whatsoever. It is definitely a big bag, but as a tall woman it suits me perfectly. This has definitely become my new everyday carry, and thanks to the great craftsmanship, I know it'll be up for the challenge.

I couldn't help myself. I have 1 in every color. Each one is so beautiful in it's own way. This tote is just a nice, big open hole for toting around a whole lotta stuff everyday. If I had to choose just one though, I would probably go with the what Love 41 calls "black". What I received was more like a matte dark graphite and I love that one the most. It seems to be a bit more rigid than the others and it's just beautiful. But they all are!! The Tobacco definately has the most personality with visible blemishes, scars, and overall color variation, and is the softest and most pliable of the 4. Dark Coffee Brown and Chestnut have a bit more sheen and probably won't show scuffs and scratches as much, but are lovely just the same, and very classy looking. They will all get more and more delishus with time. You can't go wrong with any one of them, better yet, get them all like I did! :)

Love the size, the color, the straps (so comfortable), everything about it. I know its floppy leather will get scratches and age beautifully, so happy with this purchase. It's also my first tote and totally enjoy using it.
