Real customers, carrying theirs.

The Besançon · tote bag
The Besançon is a tote in vegan leather, made in black, white and brown. It is open at the top and built to be loaded fast.
After 32 years at the table by the sea, the totes are the bags I draw fastest, because there is nothing to hide. I am not restocking after the last one leaves.

The fabric feels so high-end! I’ve used it every day, and it looks just as good as the first time I took it out.

It arrived much sooner than I expected, and it looks even better in person. The tote holds everything I need for a workday and still looks smart at the office.

A letter from Maris
Thirty-two years ago my grandmother put a knife in my hand and showed me how to cut leather without fighting it. I was eighteen, and we worked at a table by the sea.
Now I am stopping, while my hands still know what they are doing. What is left from my bench is in the Closing Sale. No restocks. When a piece is gone, it is gone.
If this one is meant to be yours, I would like you to carry it.
Maris
Because the atelier is closing. I am retiring after thirty-two years, and I would rather this bag goes home with someone than waits on a shelf.
