14 The New Tote

The New Tote Leading trend forecaster WGSN can’t get enough of this bag category, stating: “From #businesscasual to #vibrantvacation, the tote bag is key for adding newness and conveying long term value.”

And neither can we! They provide the perfect balance of traditional details and novelty updates, catering to multiple markets. Sustainability continues to be a major focus as natural materials like hemp, jute, and reused cotton are trending. In addition, eco-friendly fabrics like recycled plastic and upcycled leather make the tote feel new and modern.

From a fashion perspective, the Men’s tote is a contemporary choice for 2022. Wear it with a crossbody strap for a casual on-thego style, under the shoulder for a handsfree option, by the handles for a traditional look, or on your back as an updated hybrid backpack.

From medium to super-sized scale, the tote bag can handle it all.

Consumers are eager to revisit past canceled trips and check off some of those bucket-list moments. Whether it’s a 10-day excursion or just a quick getaway, travel is sure to happen this year.

Luggage sales are also on an uptick, and some trends to watch include: eco-friendly materials like recycled cotton and polyester, all-terrain wheels to handle any landscape, leather details for a more polished look, and customization options for a more unique and personal touch.
