If 'tote bag' makes you think of flimsy cotton things with indie bookshop branding, then this one from legendary Seattle brand Filson is absolutely not that. Design-wise it's got much more in common with those natty little airline bags that folk used to take on business trips in the 60s. What makes it really special is the heavy-duty Tin Cloth waxed cotton fabric, originally developed for workwear in the logging camps of the Pacific Northwest over 120 years ago. It'll take a lifetime of use and abuse, and come out the other side looking even better than it did to start with. The handles are made in sturdy cotton webbing and are long enough to loop over your shoulder, whilst the fully lined interior features convenient stash pockets on the front and side. With 25-litre capacity and a slim design that works equally well for work commutes or weekend travel, this is what happens when America's most uncompromising heritage brand applies over a century of durability expertise to everyday carry.
