J. Crew Uptown Tote

J. Crew Uptown tote

EUC J. Crew Uptown Tote in red with blush piping.  This is one for the original Uptown Totes and is made with the pebbled Borge Garvari leather.  I did use this pretty frequently for a few months so there is some wear  - there's a small discoloration on one side (likely from rubbing against something) and some of the piping is worn on the bottom of the bag from setting it down etc.  Neither of these are noticeable when wearing the bag and it honestly looks great!  I'm happy to provide detailed photos to anyone that is seriously interested.  The construction of these classic J. Crew bags is really superb!

From the J. Crew website:

A beautiful bag with the indescribably rich feel of full-grain leather tumbled by Borge Garveri exclusively for J.Crew. (By the way, it's pronounced "Borg-ee," with a rolled R.) The flawless hides are carefully dyed on each side and finished by hand with contrast detail at the edges. Leather handles. Side snap closures. Custom hardware with antiqued-brass finish. Sumptuous suede contrast-color interior. Back-wall zip pocket. Metal feet. Unlined. Part of the J.Crew Collection. Import. 7" handle drop. 10"H x 20 1/4"W at top, 12"W at base x 6"D.

From the Fall 2008 collection
