The Trustees Tote
The Trustees Tote has arrived and just in time for the holidays! Our 100% heavyweight cotton tote is made in Massachusetts by our friends at Steele Canvas Basket Company, a family owned and operated business. This bag has shoulder length handles, a wax canvas bottom, and the Trustees logo, hand stenciled onto each bag. It measures 15x15x6 and is the perfect size for all your garden, beach, and outdoor adventures!
We partnered with Steele Canvas Basket Company, a family owned and operated manufacturer. The company has been in operation since 1921 and started in Cambridge before moving to Chelsea and now to its current factory in Wilmington, MA. They are known for their rugged, high-quality bags, baskets, and trucks.
