Chester Wallace Waxed Tote


Pretty awesome tote bag for you today, in the way of this fold-over wax cotton shopper by Chester Wallace. The bag itself comes in a heavy duty, water repellent waxed cotton and is handmade in their factory in Portland, Oregon. What really attracted me to this style apart from the design was the range of colourways they have available, they specialist in this style so you know it's going to be a good'en. 

It's a pretty roomy number, measuring at 46cm x 37cm, with loads of space for your files and laptop. The nylon strap is long enough to go around you and not just over your shoulder so it's perfect for commuters and cyclists. Along with the Amsterdamn Shoe Co. Market tote this style is the best one around at the moment for me. Very reasonably priced at £120, well worth it for the design process.

Which colour do you reckon you would go for?

They're currently available at Flatspot. Visit Chester Wallace for more details.

    Hmmm the practical side of me says the Grey with red strap as I see it working better with outfits. Although then the other side of me is screaming 'THE BLUE ONE, THE BLUE ONE!' The colour really vibrant which is why I really like it.

    I'd call the deer Dopey because he looks a bit saft! Him and Snazzy Dino are good friends, off to play basket ball later bless'em!

  4. I really like that grey suede one. I've been looking for something for my laptop, when I need to carry it around on my bike. I've been using an old beat up backup for too long.

    Waxed canvas is one of my favorite... i guess: fabrics? - for bags. although seeing it brings back bad memories of when my favorite waxed canvas bag from j crew was stolen /:

    these are incredible. they're shape is so new. my fave is the electric blue for sure.
