Leather- For any leather tote bag or travel bag you're thinking about buying, check to see it is made with full grain leather. This is so important because if the leather doesn't have the grain on it, it will look dumpy or fall apart with persistant use. Every leather hide come with the top layer all grain. Those are the tough and resistant tightly woven fibers that naturally protect the cow. But the hide is thick, so the tannery usually splits it in half, the top from the bottom. So now they have two hides to sell. One expensive hide with all of the strong long lasting grain on it and one cheap low quality hide that looks nice but isn't. If you wonder why one leather tote or travel bag lasts longer and is more expensive than another, it is for this main reason.&&Lining- We line it with a plush face down pigskin so it has that luxurious suede look. But it's not just good looking, it's actually stronger than the cowskin. It's so impressive. &&Zippers- Of all of the zippers that we could have chosen in the world to put on this leather tote bag, we chose a special yet expensive zipper from Spain. You may find yourself sitting there zipping and unzipping it over and over again. It is strangely satisfyingly smooth.&&Expanding Fabric- A tightly woven waxed canvas from Scotland. It's from an old mill in Scotland that we found that perhaps makes the highest quality and most tightly woven waxed canvas in the world. It is in a tartan pattern that will set this leather travel bag off when exposed.

Every time I use this zippered leather tote, I get asked about it. The Crossbody style, over the shoulder or by the handles, it allow me to carry it with ease. This leather tote bag will not disappoint!&&As always, the purchase of this zippered leather tote bag helps love others in need through education, food, shelter & job training.
This is my first bag purchase from my love 41 list. I debated long and hard about purchasing this tote so I finally purchased it for myself a few months ago. This tote is very spacious and holds a lot more than I expected. Having the choice of handles and crossbody strap is very handy. I have only been able to use it twice but each time it held everything I needed it to. I am planning traveling soon and it with my new minimal tote bag will look very nice together. The fact that it is expandable only adds to its value. The only down side is that if you use the cross body strap you might want to get a strap cushion for your shoulder. Yes it is a bit more than most totes on market but you will not be disappointed when you gift yourself with a beautiful leather tote with more space.

This expandable tote is the perfect tote for any excursion or around town. The leather is a creamy brown and the option for crossbody is never-ending. Very well thought out as expected, and does not disappoint.

Ive owned the zipper leather tote (in Carmel Brown) for over 2 years now and have used it exclusively as a diaper bag. It holds a lot and with daily use, its starting to age beautifully. I use Chamberlains Leather Milk on it once in a while and boy, when I do, the bag looks like a million bucks.

This is a gorgeous bag and I love that it expands. I think the combination of leather and plaid is so pretty. It holds SO much, but not too heavy. One of my favorite bags!

I LOVE this tote. It is my #1 favorite bag from Love 41 (I have several of the others). This bag is beautiful! The leather is soft and supple, and the ability to expand the bag is so convenient. I used this as an overnight bag for a week-long road trip from Florida to Washington to New York. All the clothes I needed for six days fit perfectly in this tote! And as I wore outfits and transferred them to my dirty-clothes nylon bag, I zippered up the tote to make it small again. I also love the strap—no floppy tail end sticking out or falling out. I wish all my L41 bags had this continuous loop strap. The zippered tote rocks! Just buy it. Stop deliberating. You will fall in love with this exquisite tote. It is stylish and practical. My only regret is that I dont have any children who would inherit it! But my BFF is in for a treat if I die first. ;-)
