Kipling ART Medium Tote - Purple

This tote is generally crafted from durable and lightweight polyester, a signature material for many Kipling bags, known for its resilience and ease of care.

While the main compartment is spacious, its soft structure is best suited for smaller laptops or tablets. A 13-inch laptop might fit, but always check your device's dimensions against the bag's internal space for optimal fit, especially when the corners are zipped up.

Simply clip the strap's metal clasps onto the D-rings located on each side of the tote. To adjust the length, slide the buckle along the strap until you reach your desired fit for shoulder or crossbody wear.

For best results, wipe the tote's exterior with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing, bleaching, or using harsh cleaning agents.
