Reversible Tote
Our Reversible Tote is the smallest tote in the ALOHA lineup, but don’t let its simplicity fool you, if you're looking for a bag you can take just about anywhere, this is it! The ultra-lightweight Reversible Tote is perfect for everyday use or for those days you don't want to carry a purse or backpack. Use it to run quick errands like grocery shopping, hitting the farmer’s market, or a trip to an amusement park.
The Reversible Tote features two sturdy straps, a zipper-free top, and an inner zip pocket that allows for easy access to items you want to take in and out like keys, wallets, or phones. Bonus? It’s reversible so it’s like having two bags in one!
Let’s not forget the travelers out there. Its packability factor makes this a must-have bag for travel thanks to its compact size. The Reversible Tote is small enough to fold up and pack into your suitcase or carry-on, and big enough to fit sightseeing essentials like a refillable water bottle, a light jacket or sweater, an external battery charger, and a camera.
How I use my Reversible Tote:
“I recently traveled internationally and upon arrival, found out that the airline lost all of our checked bags. Thankfully, I had packed my Reversible Tote into my small carry-on so even though the purse I had packed for the trip never arrived, I was able to use it as a backup for the entire trip. I wore it day and night for three weeks as we traveled around Greece and France so it literally pulled triple duty as a beach bag, a nighttime handbag, and a sightseeing bag. It was SO great to have the two different designs to choose from too. When I wanted to switch things up all I had to do was reverse it and voilá, an instant style refresh! I also discovered that this tote easily fits a baguette, a parcel of beautifully wrapped cheeses from a fromagerie, and a nice bottle of French red wine, so if you find yourself in Paris, take note!”

How I use my Day Tripper Tote:
"Used this on a recent trip to Hawaii & it was used every way possible. Airport carry-on bag, groceries on the island, beach bag and even use it to take my food to work. Love the expandable top with the zipper. Held two beach towels, SPF, our water bottles and other pouches with clothes, keys phones and wallets. Literally everything we could need for the day."
