Women's Totes


What is a “tote” bag?

A tote bag is a large, and often unfastened, two-handled shoulder bag that’s used to carry a wide variety of items, especially while shopping or traveling. These bags are used by men and women to “tote” around anything from beach towels, to a change of clothes, to groceries.

Why buy a tote that’s vegan?

In addition to staying true to your principles, you're essentially voting with your dollars, which is actually a form of animal activism!

Here’s how it works; by purchasing vegan accessories, you’re telling manufacturers and designers that there’s a market for animal-friendly products, and that people will buy them. Revenue coming in from these products will help support the product line, so more of them can be made.

This also works two ways; more vegan products leaving the shelf, means less animal-derived products being bought. This tells companies that the market for them is shrinking, and the market for cruelty-free products is growing.

What materials are used?

The lining for vegan totes is often made of an animal-friendly textile, such as cotton, nylon or a variety of others. The exteriors can be made out of several vegan materials. These materials often include (but not limited to):

Please Note: Many companies use recycled plastic to make vegan/faux leather
