Looking for tote bag for flights/work etc

Hi

Looking to get a new tote for use when flying and when I need to take a lot to work. I fancied a le pliage but they're pretty ££ for a nylon bag and also fakes are everywhere. Budget about £100. Would prefer a dark colour that won't mark easy as my bags are prone to being thrown around a lot

Thanks

I have found a few in Oasis. I only need mine for a big "mum" bag so not sure of the quality.

Kipling? V light and cheaper than Le Pliage.

Longchamp do a heavier quality tote called Planetes, I have two and find them amazing quality and much less ubiquitous than the pliage

Thanks. I like the look of the other longchamp. Have actually been looking at Kipling too. Also found a lovely knomo one last night but over budget.

The Hobbs Darcy is a lovely bag.

Hobbs bags are lovely.

Leather totes are so heavy though. I have one and rarely use it because once it's full, I can't carry it!

My Kipling one weighs practically nothing.

I have a couple of mulberry totes that I don't use for that reason Remus. They're too heavy once you've added a laptop and bottle of water etc

Despite not really expecting to, i LOVE my Longchamp Planetes tote. It is so light, deceptively spacious, quite sleek looking and very practical. I would highly recommend. Maybe also take a look at the Sarah Morris collection for Longchamp which is on their website - great colours and not as ubiquitous as the ones with brown leather handles.

Urban Outfitters have some good tote bags. I have two from here and use them for work travel and home and they are really good.
