Product Information

The Woven Polyester Beach Tote from Chic Atelier is built for the days when a zip is more trouble than it is worth. The top is open, the shape is a wide bucket, and everything goes in and comes out in one movement - a towel, a book, sun cream and a bottle of water, without negotiating a closure with sandy hands.

The weave is the point. Polyester woven in an open basket texture gives the bag structure without weight, lets sand fall through rather than collecting in the seams, and dries quickly if it gets splashed. It is a far more practical material at the coast than straw, which stains and frays.

It comes in two colors, a natural light brown and a black, both unprinted, so the texture carries the whole design. Hand wash it and do not dry clean; a rinse and a spell in the shade is usually all it needs after a week away. Beyond the beach it works as a market bag or a light shopper. The open top means it is not the bag for valuables in a crowd - keep a phone and a wallet in a zipped pouch inside. It folds down small enough to pack flat in a suitcase.

No Zip, No Problem

This bag is built for the days when a zip is more trouble than it is worth. The top is open and everything goes in and comes out in one movement. A towel, a book, sun cream and a bottle of water, without negotiating a closure with sandy hands. That is the entire design brief and it is the right one for a beach.

Everything In One Movement

The shape is a wide bucket rather than a flat tote, so things drop in rather than having to be arranged. You can see what is inside at a glance. Wet swimwear and a towel go in without soaking anything else against a flat side. It is a shape built around real use.

Not Only For The Beach

Woven polyester shakes sand straight out and dries quickly, which cotton and straw do not. That also makes it a very good market and picnic bag. It holds its shape empty and folds down when you need it to. Chic Atelier made it for summer rather than for a single afternoon.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it close at the top?

No, and that is deliberate. An open top means everything goes in and out in one movement, even with sandy hands.

How much does it hold?

A towel, a book, sun cream and a bottle of water with room to spare, because the wide bucket shape drops things straight in.

Does sand get stuck in the weave?

Woven polyester shakes out cleanly and dries fast, which is exactly why it beats straw or cotton at the beach.

Can I use it away from the beach?

It makes an excellent market and picnic bag for the same reasons: open top, big capacity and easy to clean.

How do I clean it?

Shake it out, wipe the weave with a damp cloth and let it air dry. It needs very little looking after.
