The 1733 Simple Tote might be simple but it's anything but basic. Packcloth nylon provides a great balance of strength, lightness, and structure meaning this tote is ready for anything. Snaps on the handles keep it on your shoulder and the contents contained.

Keep your smaller things separate from your larger things. The Simple Tote’s collaborative design features a tethered, Poly-cotton Herringbone Twill zip pouch within, designed and woven by Chicago’s The Weaving Mill. The genesis of the 1733 and TWM collaboration was about reducing waste; all 1733 bags made with TWM fabric are off cuts of larger production runs that would otherwise end up in a landfill.
