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.
Awesome! Ive had this bag for almost 3 years! In Tobacco. It has gone everywhere with me. Beach bag, pool bag, carry-on, diaperbag. Its had baby vomit and wine spilled on it. And yet looks amazing! Love it!!

I looooove this tote! I photograph bags full time for a living, so I have seen a lot of them... and this is the one I carry more than any other. The first time I used it, I took it on a trip to Big Sur for a week, and got tons of compliments on it - everyone from other visitors to the staff at the Henry Miller Library and Nepenthe gift shop. It's super versatile. It was great as a beach bag, but I also take it to the office just about every day. It fits my 15" Macbook plus daily essentials easily (chargers, water bottle, makeup bags, etc) easily. The ultra-simple design doesn't allow pockets, but I solved the problem by adding the Koroha bag as my organizer / break-away purse if I'm ever out all day with the bigger tote, and then want to leave that in the trunk and just take a smaller bag into a restaurant with me. Perfect combo!

I own the tote in chestnut and absolutely love it and use it everyday for anything I need to take with me and for shopping of course! I looked at other brands but chose the Love41. It is great quality and I love my purchase.

The Love 41 Simple Tote is a great every day tote. If youre looking for a long-lasting, beautiful yet functional tote this is for you. I own it in two colors, tobacco and black (which presents as a dark dusty gray). Both colors are absolutely stunning. Ive inserted a Tote Savvy insert into the bag (refer to my photo) so I can wear it as a diaper bag. With this insert (also made by a small independent company) you can organize all your mom essentials including multiple diapers, a bottle, wipes, bibs, or other essentials without making the bag topple over…. The insert also gives the bag a bit more structure. You will not find this kind of thick, strong leather on a department store tote, especially not for this price with a 41 year warranty. Ahh, and the smell of the leather is absolutely divine. Definitely get yourself this bag if youre on the fence. You will not be disappointed…

I've been looking at this tote for a while and finally purchased it for my wife. I have never seen her so excited about a gift. Amazing looking and sturdy tote. Highly recommend it. Now all my daughters want one.
