You're not the type of girl who's gonna carry a backpack around all day, but your itsy bitsy purse just isn't flipping your skirt. The Gravis Kaz Tote Bag has tons of room for everything you need. Carry it in-hand or messenger style. Remove the shoulder strap if it's in the way. This 18-liter purse can fit a change of clothes, a romance novel (for comic value only, of course), and your small essentials. It can also fit 18 one-liter bottles of water. Four exterior accessory pockets let you reach keys or eye drops quickly. *Available for US shipment only.
Bottom Line: Save your handbag for the nightlife. The Gravis Kaz Tote is ready for crazy busy days.
This bag is huge. I can carry everything I need for work as well as a change of clothes to go out afterward. The body of the bag (at least in the khaki color) is a weird kind of texture, like a straw beach bag almost--I was expecting the kind of hemp that's indistinguishable from cotton, but I don't dislike it. I just don't know how it's going to wear. The bottom of the bag and the strap are solid, though. The only complaint I have is that even with some internal divisions, small things get lost in this enormous, cavernous bag.
I got this bag, the Gravis Kaz "purse", in an abstract gray print (no longer available, but the bag is the same as the one being offered here, so my comments apply).
The construction is very good. It seems of good quality all around: seams, zipper, etc. It's big, but not ridiculously so. (Some comments suggested shopping bag size. No; it's the size of a big, but not silly big purse).
The style is really unisex. There's nothing particularly feminine about it.
At the price, highly recommended.
