I have an abundance of bags—and not even designer ones. From backpacks and work totes to trendy summer purses, I always have options. Take it from me, then, that you can get some of the very best Amazon tote bags. That’s right—no trip to the mall necessary.

Totes truly run the gamut. What other style has the same range? I use totes to bring home groceries, attend office meetings, and even travel. Amazon offers everything from bulk options (which make great gifts for teachers), to personalized styles, and even luxury designers like Altuzarra and MCM. The number of reasons you could be browsing is endless, so I won’t try to guess. Here, keep reading for the 20 best tote bags on Amazon.

This Cargo Tote

Harp and Ra Utility Tote with 2 Front Pockets

Utility Tote with 2 Front Pockets

All things cargo are in style at the moment. First it was pants, then shoes, and now, bags. I love when utility becomes trendy.

Customer review: “I love that it’s heavy-duty, a great neutral color in washable fabric, with thoughtful details like a key ring tab at the top so your keys don’t get eaten, two front pockets, a zip pocket in the interior and a big open pocket opposite that. The size is gratifyingly large, but its soft structure means you can put fit it in place a more structured tote wouldn’t fit. It holds everything quite nicely.”
