Product Insights
Le 31's supple faux-leather tote at 69 CAD offers a minimalist, dual-carry design with a concealed magnetic snap and a pebbled texture that reduces shoulder strain, but its thin straps cause hand fatigue when carrying heavy loads, the interior width prevents most 15-inch laptops from fitting, there is no padded sleeve, the magnetic closure may release if overstuffed, and the polyurethane faux leather can peel with heavy use, making it an affordable entry-level tote that sacrifices laptop protection, organization, and long-term durability for a clean, uncluttered appearance.
Verified claims
- Laptop fit
- Interior width of 13 prevents most 15-inch laptops from fitting horizontally.
- Laptop protection
- The bag has no padded laptop sleeve; a laptop sits loose inside against the lining.
- Carrying comfort
- Sustained hand-carrying can strain the fingers and forearm after about 15 minutes; switching to shoulder carry extends comfortable carry time.
- Shoulder comfort
- Pebbled texture grips clothing; 7-inch depth reduces shoulder strain.
- Dual carry
- Handles switch between grab and shoulder carry to relieve hand discomfort.
- Appearance
- Concealed magnetic snap leaves tote front uncluttered for a minimalist look.
- Operation
- Magnetic closure opens and closes with a fast, quiet, one-handed snap.
- Closure
- Magnetic closure has reduced holding force due to leather gap and may release if overstuffed.
- Faux leather longevity
- Polyurethane faux leather resists light scratches but may peel with heavy use.
- Price tier
- At $69, Le 31's most affordable men's bag, below $99 and $175.
- Design features
- The magnetic snap is concealed and the exterior is free of zippers and visible snaps; the bag has one interior zip pocket.
- Usability
- The tote provides comfortable carry with dual-carry options, but it has limited interior organization and most 15-inch laptops won't fit horizontally.
- Pockets
- The interior has one small zip pocket and no additional organizer pockets.
- Depth
- At 7 deep, contents are readily visible and reachable without digging.
- Scratch resistance
- There are no official scratch- or peel-resistance details for this tote; polyurethane faux leather generally resists light scratching but can peel with heavy use over time.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Supple Faux-Leather Tote: Choose this if you want a versatile everyday tote from Le 31 (a Simons exclusive designed in Canada) in pebbled faux leather with a polyurethane shell and textile lining. It offers a roomy main compartment measuring 13 inches high by 13 inches long by 7 inches deep, closed with a magnetic snap and featuring an interior zip pocket, and can be carried by grab handle or shoulder straps in Black or Brown, one size. Note that its top is secured only by the magnetic snap rather than a full zipper, which may matter if you prefer a more secure closure.[1] | Zipped Pocket Faux-Leather Tote Imported From Seoul: Choose this if you want a men's tote from Le 31, designed in Canada and made in Korea, with secure zipped storage: a zip-closed main compartment plus zip pockets on the front and back, sized about 14 by 11 by 4 inches (35.5 by 28 by 10 cm) in one size. It suits shoppers who prefer vegan-friendly 100% polyurethane faux leather with a supple feel, a black finish, a squared flat base, and a wide adjustable webbing strap that can be carried crossbody or by hand. Note that the soft faux-leather body has a slouchy, folded top rim rather than a rigid structure, so it keeps a relaxed shape when carried.[3,4] | Large Faded Canvas Tote Imported From Seoul: Choose this if you want a large everyday carryall: it measures 17 by 23 by 5 inches, is made of durable 100% cotton canvas with a worn, faded finish, and stands upright on its wide flat base. It suits shoppers who prefer a minimalist open-top tote with two long shoulder straps, a front patch pocket, and an interior zip pocket for small items, in Grey, Ivory/Cream Beige, or Green, all in one size. Note that the main compartment has no closure, and the top rim shows slight puckering where the straps attach.[5,6,7,8] |
