BASE TOTE XL—BLACK
The Base Tote XL by This is a(n) is the largest and most substantial model in the Base Tote series, combining an impressive scale with practical functionality.
Inspired by U.S. military Helmet Bags and Coal Bags, the design features a large front pocket derived from the Helmet Bag and the durable short-handle construction of a Coal Bag.
The XL is designed as a 2-way tote, featuring short handles and a fixed shoulder strap. Carry it by hand to emphasize its bold, classic silhouette, or wear it over the shoulder or crossbody when carrying heavier loads or moving actively.
With its exceptionally generous capacity and oversized proportions, the XL offers the functionality of a large utility bag while also having a distinctive presence within a space. It works for everyday use, travel, outdoor activities, and even as a practical bag for the home.
Made from durable canvas, the bag develops more character and softness with use, gradually taking on a texture and presence unique to its owner.
Please note: The shoulder strap is permanently attached and cannot be removed.
