Patagonia Women's Barista Tote

Wonderful tote!
October 26, 2011

The Patagonia tote was exactly what I was looking for. It provides enough room to carry a lot of stuff and, at the same time, does not feel bulky when there isn't much in the bag. I got rid of four tote bags and replaced them with one Patagonia tote.

Wonderful bag but no zippered top!

I ordered this bag mainly because the purple color caught my eyes. It's perfect for my small laptop and has enough pockets for cell phone, sunglasses and three penholders. It also has an in- and outside holder for water bottle. It seems to be durable. The only con is that the top doesn't close/zip and the zippered mesh pocket is too small for my wallet so it is not very secure. They really should redesign this bag and make a closure for the top. If you get in a downpour things inside will get wet. I can only give it 4 stars for that.

Check the laptop sleeve dimensions!

I bought this bag for work purposes, primarily. Not necessarily for toting around a laptop, but for bringing my stuff/lunch to and from work. For these purposes, this bag is *awesome*. Not sure where the "...will fit a laptop 17" or smaller..." information from, as, if you actually check the laptop sleeve dimensions (which I should've), they're only 9.5x14x2...which leads me to believe that it'd fit a 14" or smaller laptop...(incidentally, my previous 14" laptop fit perfectly inside...) Other than that, it's an awesome bag; a little rigid since it's padded, but nice because it doesn't just flop over!

Lovely bag!

Love the bag. Only disadvantage to the bag is that it doesn't have a large enough hole for holding water bottles. Otherwise, great bag. Sturdy to use and seems like it will last forever.
