Know before you buy
The Neelum Tote should be hand washed only. For minor spots, use a damp cloth or a soft brush with cold water; avoid using harsh detergents or machine washing, as these can strip the protective wax coating.
The waxed canvas is structured and durable, providing a sturdy shape that stands up on its own. While it has a substantial feel compared to thin cotton totes, it remains flexible enough to fold down for storage when not in use.
The Neelum Tote features a spacious, open-concept interior design intended for maximum capacity. It does not include dedicated internal pockets, so it is best paired with a small pouch if you need to organize keys or a phone.
As you use the bag, the wax finish will naturally scuff and crease, creating unique marks and a weathered look. This patina is a hallmark of high-quality waxed canvas and adds character to the bag over time without compromising its structural integrity.
Yes, the straps are made from durable, thick cotton webbing designed to handle the weight of a full grocery haul. They are securely attached with metal hardware to ensure they can withstand regular, heavy-duty use.
