Retro Large First Layer Leather Tote

Description
This tote is made from first-layer cowhide leather, selected for its thickness, grain integrity, and resistance to early surface breakdown. The leather shows natural tonal variation, not artificial uniformity, which means each panel ages individually instead of peeling or cracking as a single sheet.
The body is fully structured, built from flat-cut leather panels joined through reinforced vertical seams. This construction prevents the bag from collapsing inward when empty and keeps the base aligned under load.
Dual shoulder handles are attached through metal rivet reinforcement, distributing weight across the leather instead of concentrating stress at stitch points. A detachable long strap adds carry flexibility without compromising structure.
The top edge remains straight even after repeated use, indicating proper leather density and controlled edge finishing. This is a work-focused tote designed to hold shape under daily load.

Story
This bag was designed around capacity without distortion.
Most large totes fail because they rely on soft leather to feel comfortable. That softness causes sagging, corner collapse, and uneven stretching within months. This bag avoids that by using first-layer cowhide with enough body to resist gravity.
The vertical center seam is not decorative. It stabilizes the front panel and prevents horizontal warping when the bag is filled. The side panels are cut slightly inward to maintain balance when carried on one shoulder.
The leather finish is intentionally restrained. It allows surface marks to appear gradually, not instantly. Over time, the bag develops depth instead of damage.
This is a tote for repetition—daily carry, consistent load, long-term use.
