Caring for your bag
This bag is made to withstand machine washing. However, we recommend to wash it by hand in order to avoid unnecessary abrasion of the fabric fibres and reach a more delicate result. We recommend spot cleaning the bag for as long as you can before completely washing it, in order to maintain its sturdiness.
Spot cleaning instructions:
- Marks:
- Depending on the type of mark, you may be able to get rid of it by rubbing a white eraser.
- For tougher marks, damp a cloth with a solution of water and mild detergent and rub area in circular motion.
- Oily stains: Apply 3% hydrogen peroxide (commonly found in pharmacies). Rub stained area in circular motion using dry cloth. Start with a small amount and increase as needed until desired result is achieved.
Hand washing instructions:
- Fill up a sink or basin with a solution of water and mild detergent.
- Push bag into the solution gently using your two hands, making sure water reaches all surfaces of the bag.
- Brush areas with accentuated dirt or marks.
- Do not bleach.
- Drying:
- Use a towel to pat dry the bag. Remove any spots of water accumulation and flatten wrinkled spots.
- Hang the bag by its handles in a well-ventilated area and let it air dry completely.
Machine washing instructions:
- Machine wash cold, delicate cycle. You may need to run the bag through two or even three cycles in the first time you wash the bag, as canvas is water repellent when new.
- Do not bleach.
- Drying: Hang the bag by its handles in a well-ventilated area and let it air dry completely.
- If needed, iron on medium heat setting.
- As this bag is mainly made of unprocessed 100% cotton canvas, expect 10% to 15% shrinkage of the undyed parts.

Customer Reviews
I love my Amiga Tote. Talk about ‘attention to detail. This is an exceptional buy. Honest, good hearted folk. Highly recommend.
I wanted a bag with lots of pockets for my knitting supplies, so I ordered the Amiga with extra pockets inside and out. I’m very happy with it. It’s good-looking, well-made, and durable — and all those pockets help me keep my knitting notions organized.
We walked by the shop and saw the colourful bags in the window. Oh my what a find! ,I loved the well made sturdy canvas with multiple pockets. The artist in me was thrilled that I could design aspects of it and choose my own colours. Excellent tote!
This tote was exactly what I was looking for. The pockets are the perfect size. I put in things in the pockets like water bottles, pens, snacks, etc. The bag was expertly made exactly as I requested. The colors came out just as described on the website. Communication with customer service was phenomenal!! I highly recommend this bag and this company!
The bag is durable, spacious, and beautiful!
I initially purchased this incredibly, well- constructed bag to support a Canadian company in this challenging economy thinking that I really didn't need another shopping bag. It has turned out to be the best choice that could have made. I use it for trips to the farmer's market but it is so pretty and indestructible and it can be used for so many purposes - holding my knitting, grocery shopping, beach bag... I definitely need another one or two.
I love how sturdy and roomy my Amiga tote is. I use it for my laptop and books for work as well as my knitting projects. The pockets and loops keep me and my projects organized, and that's a great thing! 10/10 highly recommend!
Excellent product, solid, well made from good fabric. I wanted both the external back pockets (sewn flat) and the luggage handle and was not sure it would work well - but it does!
The first time I saw these bags (served up in an ad on instagram) I was skeptical. I thought "this is probably just another well branded product with good photos that I'll receive and find out it's terrible"
GOODNESS WAS I WRONG.
First, the price is unmatched. It's so affordable for a completely custom-to-you product. I kept adding customizations and felt like the price stayed in a nice range.
Second, the QUALITY. This tote is built so so well and the material isn't some lame/flimsy canvas. It's the ridged, structured, solid canvas you always want in a bag. You can set it on the ground by itself and it'll continue standing. Lovely.
I was always looking for the perfect "utility tote". A tote that I could use on the daily and allows me to carry personal items (lip balm, lotion, small scissors, hand sanitizer, water bottle etc.), my "tools" of choice (laptop, iPad, chargers, battery bank, umbrella, notebooks etc), and still have room for other things as my day evolves, im with my daughter, we purchase something, etc.
This really is an incredible tote bag. I'm confident that I'll put it through the wringer and report back that it's holding up just fine, and feels better over time.
A couple upgrades I would love to see:
• The ability to have an All Black version. The canvas color is great, but It would be awesome to have a full black version that could help hide dirt, etc.
• I would love either a full waxed canvas version, or simply to opt to have the bottom of the tote be waxed canvas. Something that would stay a bit more stable over time and gain a cool look with age.
Aujourd'hui, ai justement, pour la 1ère fois, utilisé mon sac et ooooh combien il a répondu à mes besoins...
Les poches internes et externes ont comblé mes attentes!
Mais, surtout, il est beau, très...
Il a même suscité de l'intérêt!
Merci pour ce bel objet utilitaire xxx
