Our capacious and sturdy tote, big and strong enough to cope with the most grandly proportioned of books. Cedric Price: Works, Rogue, SMLXL… if we stock it, this handsome, high volume bag can carry it!
Made from sustainably sourced, heavyweight cotton right here in the workshop of our neighbours Social Studio, this tote is a keeper—not least because if you bring it back to the shop to carry your purchases, you’ll get 5% off!*
A locally made, durable tote that you’ll actually use, again and again.
