Details

The Besançon is for quick loading and no fuss. It carries open and upright, so you can toss things in and go.

The tote shape is simple, with a plain exterior in vegan leather. It is open at the top, and there is nothing on the outside to distract from the color.

  • Open top: It carries upright and loads quickly.
  • Tote shape: A simple, roomy outline.
  • Plain exterior: There is nothing to hide, so the color does the talking.
  • Vegan leather: It stays easy to wipe down.
  • Three colors: Black, white and brown.

Material & details

  • Tote shape
  • Vegan leather
  • Colors: Black, White, Brown

Made for

Market runs, office days, beach trips, shopping and quick errands.

What fits

A wallet, phone, keys, a book and a water bottle.

Why vegan leather?

Vegan leather is made without animal hide and carries lighter than it looks. A damp cloth cleans it, and the color stays put.

Care

  • Clean spills right away with a damp cloth.
  • Avoid long hours in strong sun.
  • Keep it in a cloth bag when it is not in use.

I am not restocking after the last one leaves.

Shipping, returns & warranty

Every order is processed within 48 hours and shipped with tracking. Free shipping arrives in 5 to 7 business days, or in 3 to 5 with express at checkout.

You have 30 days from delivery to send it back. In the EU and the UK you also have a 14-day right of withdrawal, without giving a reason.

If the stitching, a zip, a clasp, a strap or the leather fails with normal use in the first year, we replace the bag. How the warranty works.

Maris Besançon tote bag

The Besançon · tote bag

An open tote you can throw a day into

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.

Maris atelier

A letter from Maris

People told me a bag is either beautiful or useful.

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

Before you choose

Why is it so much cheaper?

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.

Will it come back?

No. There is no second run. When this colour sells out, it does not return.

Is the gift really free?

Yes. It is added to your cart automatically with this bag, at no cost. There is no code to type.

How does the extra discount work?

Take two bags from the Closing Sale and you get an extra 15% off, three an extra 20%, four or more an extra 25%. It is applied at checkout.

When will it arrive?

Every order is processed within 48 hours and shipped with tracking. Free shipping arrives in 5 to 7 business days, or in 3 to 5 with express at checkout.

Can I return it?

Yes. You have 30 days from delivery to send it back. In the EU and the UK you also have a 14-day right of withdrawal, without giving a reason.
