Product Type: Tote Bags

Unlined and unbound, this tote is leather and nothing else: no fabric inside, no binding on the edges, just the hide cut and stitched into a bag. Kiko Leather calls this the Raw Edge Tote and lists it as top-grain cowhide with a marbled mocha finish outside and a deep chestnut underside inside. It is 14.5 inches wide, 13 tall and 5.25 deep, with one open compartment and two flat handles.

  • Nothing inside but leather. No lining to tear, sag or collect crumbs at the seams.
  • Raw cut edges. The edges are left as cut, so the tote looks clean, flat and modern.
  • Tall and square. It stands upright on the floor beside your desk.
  • Marbled mocha finish. Kiko Leather's words for a dark brown surface with lighter clouding that hides wear.

Why Choose an Unlined Leather Tote

An unlined leather tote weighs less than a lined one and is easier to keep clean, because the inside is the same leather as the outside. With no fabric lining to wear thin, the interior lasts as long as the exterior. You also see the leather's underside, soft and brushed, which is part of the appeal. The trade-off is that a leaking pen or a damp umbrella marks the inside directly, so carry those in a pouch.

The top stays open, which suits a quick life of grabbing and going: market runs, the office, a weekend away.

What Is Top Grain Leather

Top grain leather comes from the hide's top layer, with its surface lightly sanded or buffed and then finished, which gives it an even look and a smooth feel. It keeps the strength of that dense top layer, so it holds its shape well in a bag carried every day. Kiko Leather lists this tote as top-grain cowhide, and the marbled finish adds color depth on top of that surface.

Raw Edge Tote Everyday Questions

Which laptops fit inside? A 13 inch laptop, about 12 inches wide, slides in with room to spare inside the 14.5 inch width. A 16 inch laptop is too wide.

Do raw edges fray? Leather does not fray like fabric. The cut edges may soften and darken slightly with handling, which suits the marbled finish.

Is an open top safe enough for travel? For a car or a quiet commute, yes. On a crowded train, keep a wallet in a zip pouch inside.

How do I care for the marbled finish? Dust the surface with a dry, lint-free cloth, and use a small amount of leather conditioner a few times a year. Test on the base first, since conditioner can deepen the color.
