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.
Love this tote! I use it for travel, work, day trips, etc! It holds a ton. It's even great for guys too. My husband will borrow it for weekend trips. Everyone always asks where it's from because it really stands out but yet is so simple in design. Love it!

Excellent for toting things to work. It just seems to me the depth is a bit disproportionate to the width; another inch deeper would help it accommodate more. Its super light weight and strong, and it fits nicely over the shoulder. I bought black, knowing it would come brownish/grey, and Mink oiled it to a beautiful black.

I received my Simple Tote yesterday and was so pleased to find it pack with "love." The extra time and effort spoke volumes about quality. This is my first dark coffee brown (usually go for chestnut) and am so pleased. Just the right amount of character in the leather and of course smells amazing, just as fabulous as my saddles. I have carried the med. square satchel as my daily for almost 2 years and my simple tote is the perfect add on for paperwork, lunch, and whatever extra my family needs. I love this bag!

I have bought many items from Saddleback over the years. My favorite item being their big leather wallet but! Let me tell you, this bag is everything I needed. It's my gym bag some days. It's my purse. It's my school bag, filled with textbooks and notebooks and even my 16" laptop. It's my go to place for all my daily needs and I have no doubt this tote will accompany me for years of adventures, homework sessions and trips around the world with our pups and kids. It fits beautifully on my shoulders and I swear it couldn't be a more versitile size. Even when it's LOADED it is still very comfortable to carry and it will still stand up on its own. I'm a woman who misplaces nothing...except for her keys, which is why I've hooked a S-biner clip for them, this bag doesn't have pockets- which I prefer but that means keys can fall under all the work. The clip helps. I'm in love with everything this tote has been and will be for my busy life. And the chestnut color is to die for
