ALOHA CollectionReversible Tote - Splash-Proof Beach & Travel Tote, Easy to Clean (17" x 13")

I love all of my Aloha bags and pouches. They are great any time of year. This one is reversible. Great for carrying stuff to/from the gym/pool/beach, etc. Waterproof pockets and pouches keep wet things away from your other stuff or keep you wallet and phone safe from wet stuff. This is the second bag I've purchased, my first was a little bigger to use for the beach. They're great for travel as well because the material they are made from folds flat and is incredibly lightweight, but so durable.

I love, love, love Aloha Collection bags & already have several in different styles. This smaller sized, open tote is a style I didn't have so I was quite excited to get this one. It's reversible so depending on your outfit or mood, you can choose the print that best fits. This tote is a little smaller than the zippered-top totes that I usually use, & it has an open style (doesn't zip shut) which works out really well for toting around my son's swim lesson items. I can easily toss everything he needs into this bag (towel, sunscreen, goggles, extra clothes, water bottle, snack, my wallet, keys). This bag is easy to keep clean because it can be rinsed down or even better, washed in the washing machine & then hang dry. The bag is very well made, durable & stylish. I highly recommend an Aloha Collection bag for everyone & everything!

I love the company's give back mentality and the aesthetic of the bag is undeniable.I love that the bag is reversible although I agree that the dark / black side looks nicer because the material really IS creased and the bag look better with the dark side out.I love how compressible the bag is ... it really is a good bag to put into your luggage so that you have it to carry around at your destination or grocery shop without having to buy shopping bags.And I love how easy care it is.But all this could be said of a cotton tote or other poly-something tote.It's water resistant and that's nice too. But all bags / totes have a lifespan if you use them regularly and I'm sure this one will be no different. It will wear out at the bottom at some point, time will tell how long, so I entirely agree with other reviewers that at $52 for a tote the size of a grocery bag, this bag is pricey. Way too pricey for what it is.

I’m a little bit obsessed with Aloha Collection and I love everything they make so this review is going to sound a little different from the others as I speak to some of their concerns.-I totally understand where people are coming from with the price. Aloha Collection is a premium brand based in the US and should not be compared to the cheaper foreign markets that tend to shine on Amazon thanks to their insanely low price points (bc cheap labor, intellectual property theft, and lower quality materials!) All bags and prints are designed in-house; not only are you paying for a bag but you’re also paying for an American artist’s work designing the pattern and bag construction. Plus 5% of their sales go to “Hawaiian-based conservation organizations” so you’re also paying a premium to support a good cause. A lot of people choose Aloha Collection because it is a brand that gives back. The price might not be worth it to you but there are plenty of consumers who are happy to pay that price.-Aloha Collection uses a splash proof material that has been created by the brand founders. The wrinkling is intentional. No other company can replicate it exactly because it is proprietary. And it works! The brand has every right to charge a premium for a material that is unique to their product. Keep that in mind the next time you’re carrying your Aloha Collection bag and enjoying the confidence that your valuables are staying nice and dry.I love this beach bag in large part because I love the Aloha Collection brand. I love their mission and that they give back to conserving beautiful Hawaii. I love supporting women-owned businesses. When you order this bag you are doing so much more than purchasing an item. You’re doing a little bit of good in the world.

This is a lovely bag, very stylish print, nice stitching and colors, too. Bright, but also a bit subdued so you have a fun colorful design without it being shockingly so.

This is a nice, medium sized beach tote. It's not big enough to be a full beach bag for a day at the beach, but it's perfect for carrying smaller items that you want to be easily accessible or protected by water, which you would put in the zipper pouch. It looks upscale casual and is made of a high-end water-resistant material that is super easy to wash and keep clean. Take note of the dimensions because it is smaller than I was expecting (even though I did pay attention to the dimensions listed). The price is a bit on the pricey side, but it's something I support considering this is a small company and is one that donates 10% of their profits to Maui relief efforts.This review is for the ALOHA Collection Reversible Tote - Splash-Proof Beach & Travel Tote, Easy to Clean (17" x 13")

I really appreciate the designer who decided to make this up out of material that is truly water resistant/water proof! I finally have a sand and water proof bag to use for everything wet from seashells to sandy towels to wet clothes when we go to the beach. This reversible, attractive, and practical bag is very well made with a securely attached pair of handles and allows me to shove everything we need for the trips to and from the beach without getting sand and water all over everything I'm trying to keep clean and dry! I LOVE the fact that it is so easy to clean and that it has enough room for whatever I need to carry. It can (and likely will) be used for a general carry bag when I go to the pool at the Y or to the gym making it the perfect bag for all activities. Just sling the straps over your shoulder and set off on your next great beach or pool adventure! ;-)
