Product details
Everything about this product
Hand Woven
Real Raffia, Woven by Hand
Made from real raffia, a plant fiber worked by hand rather than pressed by machine, so the texture shifts slightly from bag to bag. The weave pulls tight across the base and sides where the tote carries weight, and stays open across the body so air moves through. The natural fiber softens with use and ages without a coating that peels or dye that bleeds in heat.
Nine Styles
Pick the Woven Style You Like
One tote, nine woven looks to choose from. Pick plain natural for an easy carry, a floral or textured embroidered weave for more detail, a striped or checkered panel for contrast, or a version with braided raffia, a soft cord or a leather strap. Each style is woven by hand, so the surface carries small natural variations that machine-made bags do not.
Carries a Lot
Roomy, Light and Holds Shape
Empty, the tote weighs next to nothing, and loaded with a towel or a market haul the structured weave holds its form instead of slumping. Inside there is room for a water bottle, wallet, phone and sunglasses with space to spare. The shoulder-length handles sit flat and leave your hands free, so it reaches from the beach to the market to dinner by the water.
Why this product
Why this raffia tote earns a spot on your shoulder
- 1
Woven by hand, not by machine
Real raffia worked by hand gives each tote a slightly different texture, so the bag you carry is one of a kind rather than stamped out by machine.
- 2
A weave that supports and breathes
The fiber pulls tight at the base where the weight sits and stays open across the body, so the tote holds its load yet lets air move through it.
- 3
Nine styles, one you will love
Plain natural, floral or textured embroidery, striped and checkered panels, braided raffia, soft cord or a leather strap, so the look fits your taste.
- 4
Ages without falling apart
The natural fiber softens with use instead of peeling or fading, with no synthetic coating to flake and no dye to bleed in summer heat.
How it works
How to choose and carry yours
- 1
Pick your woven style
Choose from nine looks, from plain natural to floral, striped, braided or a leather shoulder strap, whichever suits the way you like to carry it.
- 2
Load it up for the day
Drop in a towel, a water bottle, your wallet, phone and sunglasses, and the structured weave holds its shape instead of slumping under the weight.
- 3
Carry it on your shoulder
The shoulder-length handles rest flat and leave your hands free, so the tote moves from beach to market to dinner without changing how you carry it.
- 4
Keep it looking natural
Spot clean with a damp cloth or follow the care label, and let the raffia soften with use rather than soaking the natural fiber.
Benefits
Roomy, light and woven to last
-
Carries a lot, looks light
Roomy enough for a towel and a market haul, yet it never reads as packed or bulky on the shoulder.
-
Holds its shape full or empty
The reinforced base and tight side weave keep the tote standing instead of folding in on itself.
-
Hands free all day
Shoulder-length handles sit flat and stay put, so you can keep the bag on while you carry the rest.
-
A style for your taste
Nine woven looks mean you pick natural, floral, striped, braided or leather strap to match how you dress.
-
One bag, many seasons
The natural fiber softens and ages well, so the same tote returns year after year rather than wearing out.
