6876 Tote bag with unique construction including outside pocket.
This style has been made in Scotland using Hainsworth Fabric from the company archive.
The quality is a British Army wool Barathea; comprising of a worsted weave which is a process differing to a highly woollen produced fabric.
Barathea is versatile, with elegant drape and exceptional handle. Due to its coarse texture, the fabric has natural recovery abilities and quickly returns back to its natural shape.
