The word “tote bag” refers to a canvas bag that people carry on one shoulder/arm/hand. They usually have two straps and do not have zippers. Even though they typically don’t have zippers, they are surprisingly effective at holding items and keeping them inside. The bag is surprisingly secure from drops and thefts because the straps are short and the top is held close to the armpit. Finding the right size for the canvas bag can be quite challenging. The decision takes a lot of thought and should not be rushed.

First off, you must think about what you intend to put into your tote bag. How big are the items that you want to carry? You would rather not get a canvas tote that is too small to fit the things that you want to take. It is better to get a tote that is too big than too small. However, a tote bag that is too large may be difficult to carry around. If you put small items in a big tote bag, they may move around and get damaged. They may move around a lot, be challenging to keep track of, and fall out of the bag.

To find the right canvas tote size, measure the tote and the items you want to put in it. For instance, if you don’t know how big an 8 by 12 tote is, you should acquire a ruler and a large piece of paper. Draw a rectangle that is eight by 12 on the paper. The rectangle that you draw will be the size of the tote bag. Do the same thing for your personal belongings. Measure them and see how big they are. It is also worth it to figure out the dimension for how wide a tote bag will extend when filled with items. If you already know this dimension, you can use the data and the other aspects to construct, out of paper or fabric, how big a tote bag with a given size would look while being filled to its fullest.

If you are near stores that sell tote bags, go there and measure the dimensions of those bags so that you can get an idea of what different sizes of canvas totes look like in person. Furthermore, test these totes out by putting your belongings in them and observing how much stuff will fit. Testing tote bags in person like this will help if you choose to buy them wholesale from a supplier that is not near you.

Looking at reviews online is another excellent way to determine the size of a tote bag that you want. Read people’s reviews to see what different totes will be able to fit and how they will fit items.
