Marc Jacobs The Medium Tote Bag (Beige Multi)

What are the exact dimensions and weight of this tote bag?

The bag measures 34 x 15 x 27 cm (length x width x height) and weighs 400g. These dimensions make it a true medium-sized tote that's large enough for daily essentials like a laptop, documents and personal items, yet compact enough to carry comfortably. The lightweight construction at 400g means you won't experience shoulder strain during extended wear.

Can the shoulder strap be removed completely?

Yes, the shoulder strap is adjustable and removable, giving you complete flexibility in how you carry the bag. You can use it as a traditional handheld tote with just the top handles, or attach the shoulder strap for hands-free carrying. The strap adjustment allows you to customise the drop length to suit your height and preferred carrying style.

What type of closure does this bag have and how secure is it?

The bag features a top zip closure that runs across the full opening of the bag. This provides excellent security for your belongings, preventing items from falling out accidentally. The zip closure is more secure than open-top totes whilst still allowing easy access to your items. The quality zipper operates smoothly and is designed to withstand regular daily use.

What material is used for the construction and lining?

The exterior is crafted from woven jacquard fabric in a beige multi colourway, whilst the interior features faille lining. Jacquard is a durable woven material that creates intricate patterns and maintains its structure over time. The faille lining is a ribbed fabric that's easy to clean and helps maintain the bag's shape whilst providing a smooth interior surface.

Is this bag suitable for laptop or tablet storage?

With dimensions of 34 x 15 x 27 cm, this bag can accommodate most laptops up to 13-14 inches and tablets comfortably. The structured design and zip closure provide protection for electronic devices. However, for optimal laptop protection, you may want to use a padded laptop sleeve inside the bag, as the faille lining provides style rather than cushioning.

How do I clean and maintain this jacquard tote bag?

The woven jacquard exterior should be spot cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap when needed. Avoid soaking the fabric or using harsh chemicals that could damage the weave or colours. The faille lining can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Store the bag in the included dust bag when not in use to prevent dust accumulation and protect from scratches.

What's included in the box with this Marc Jacobs tote?

You'll receive the tote bag itself, the adjustable shoulder strap and a protective dust bag for storage. The dust bag is essential for maintaining the bag's condition when not in use and is particularly important for preserving the jacquard fabric. All hardware and straps come pre-attached and ready to use straight from the box.

Is this part of a specific Marc Jacobs collection?

Yes, this tote is part of Marc Jacobs' THE™ collection, which represents the brand's iconic silhouettes and timeless designs. The THE™ collection focuses on classic shapes and premium materials that transcend seasonal trends. This collection emphasises craftsmanship and versatility, making pieces suitable for long-term use rather than just following current fashion cycles.
