There’s an indefinable yet still very distinct sense of class to a handheld tote bag. We’ve tried a few ourselves over the years… However, they’re always a bit offset by the need for shoulder-hung practicality. With the M/S Raise we’re trying to build bridges and allow for both options. Combining elongated bridle leather handles for the shoulder-hung option with a short and firmly stitched-on cross handle for the handheld option is the real signature of the M/S Raise. Built tall and slim, with double leather borders on front and back to support its stand, this tote bag will accompany you equally well whether you’re heading for weekday business or Sunday markets.

Organisation can be kept neat and tight inside with the fully closable laptop/magazine compartment to the back and a zipped pocket with two slide-down pockets below to the front. A small brass D-ring and our signature sailor hook attached to the top of the inside border provide a casual but handy closure mechanism.
