We designed the East West Travel Tote as a more luxe version of our classic East West tote. It has the same set of practical proportions — an East West tote is wider than it is tall, with plenty of space for getting your essentials in and out of it — but also got several exciting additions. First, we equipped the bag with an exterior pocket, which helps you keep the things you reach for most close at hand. Second, we added a snap closure to secure your things and give you some peace of mind — practical whether you're traveling by foot, by plane, by car, or by train. (Probably by ship, too: We just haven't personally taken one on a sailing adventure yet! We're adding "Go sailing" to our bucket list now.) Third, we decided to finish the East West Travel Tote with a turned top edge, which gets stitched meticulously for both beauty and durability. The result is a bag that's ready for any adventure you want to take it on, whether you're walking to a friend's house down the block or packing for a journey across the world.
