The bag you'll reach for every day
A good tote goes everywhere with you: to work, to the sabzi market, to college, on a weekend trip. It holds your lunch, your water bottle and everything you picked up on the way home.
At Coral Slub, we believe India was never beige, and neither is your everyday bag. Our totes bring the same prints and colours we love in our home linen to something you carry every day. They're practical enough for daily errands and pretty enough to finish your outfit.
100% cotton, full of colour
Every Coral Slub tote is made in 100% cotton. It's strong enough for daily use, light to carry and easy to wash. And unlike plastic or synthetic bags, a cotton tote is reusable for years.
Choose from a wide range of prints:
- Block prints with traditional Indian motifs, earthy and timeless.
- Botanical and floral prints for a fresh, cheerful everyday look.
- Ikat-inspired prints with soft, blurred patterns.
- Playful prints, including animal motifs, for something a little different.
Our range comes in two collections. The Everyday Collection is made for daily errands and work. The Signature Collection has our most distinctive prints, for when you want your bag to stand out.
One tote, many uses
A tote bag is a versatile everyday essential that suits a variety of needs. Carry your tiffin, water bottle, diary and daily essentials to the office, or use it for grocery shopping as a reusable alternative to plastic bags. It is also perfect for college, offering space for books and notebooks while adding a touch of personality to your outfit. For travel and weekend outings, a tote bag keeps snacks, a shawl and your phone within easy reach. You can even take it to the beach or poolside, as it is lightweight and easy to wash after use.
Choosing the right tote
Our totes come in two sizes to suit different needs. The 16-inch tote is ideal for everyday essentials such as your wallet, phone, keys, water bottle and a book. The 18 x 18-inch tote offers more space for groceries, office files or a change of clothes. Before choosing a size, consider what you usually carry and select one that fits your essentials comfortably. Check the product page for exact dimensions and details about the handles and pockets before making your purchase.
A gift that gets used
A printed cotton tote is one of the easiest gifts to get right. It suits every age, needs no size guessing and gets used every day. Give one for:
- Birthdays and thank-yous, for friends, teachers and colleagues.
- Festive gifting at Diwali and Raksha Bandhan, alone or paired with a cushion cover or table runner.
- Weddings, as return gifts or bridesmaid gifts.
- Corporate gifting, as a practical, sustainable alternative to the usual hamper.
Caring for your tote
Cotton totes are easy to keep fresh:
- Empty the bag and shake out any crumbs or sand.
- Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Wash printed totes on their own the first time.
- Don't wring it hard; press the water out gently.
- Dry in the shade to keep the print bright, and reshape while damp.
- Iron on the reverse side if needed.
For small marks, spot clean with a damp cloth and a drop of mild detergent instead of washing the whole bag. Always check the care instructions on the product page.
