How to Choose a Tote Bag
A tote should balance capacity with how comfortably it carries when full.
Size and depth determine what the bag can hold, while handle drop determines whether it is primarily carried by hand, fits comfortably over the shoulder, or works over a coat.
Softer totes offer more flexibility and can conform to the body, while structured totes hold their shape and may feel more polished but less forgiving.
Weight, closure, interior organization and base structure also make a noticeable difference in everyday use.
