Market Leather Tote with Exterior Carry Straps

Founded in 2009 by maker duo Blaine and Mackenzie, The Local Branch grew from a creative partnership into a small-batch leather and apparel brand. Its storefront is in Skaneateles, New York, with its own leather and canvas goods crafted in Upstate New York. The founders wanted to support themselves through meaningful work with their hands. Their approach centers on American manufacturing, considered purchases, durable construction and goods that can be cared for and repaired.

Carry daily essentials and market finds in an open-top leather tote. Two exterior accent straps can also hold a rolled layer or another suitably sized item.

Compare the listed measurements with the essentials you carry most often. Think about which belongings you reach for throughout the day, the type of closure you prefer, and how you like to carry the bag.
