Red may mean ‘danger’ in many walks of life, but when I look at this Bilykirk No. 540 Standard Issue West Tote bag, the only danger I can think of is eating too much at the picnic.
Seriously, this new ‘Nantucket’ red colorway of Billykirk’s quintessential large tote is only evoking images of great days out, enjoying the summer sun and eating food in a beautiful locale. But it’s not only a summer bag. The fact that this Tote is made from 10 oz. waxed cotton canvas, with mil-spec nylon webbing on the interior, handles, taping, and shoulder strap, means that this bad boy will carry through the more challenging seasons.
Made in New Jersey, the full-grain leather base of this large 2-way tote bag means you can dump it on the floor outside Satriales or on the subway, and all you’ll be mopping up is patina. The bag also features an external pocket at the front, an internal organizer pocket with a Billykirk leather patch, and a branded Billykirk label on the front to finish things off.
Available for $250 from Billykirk.
