Arlene Quilted Tartan Tote Bag: Choose this for everyday carrying when you want a Barbour tote with a signature tartan look: it is made of diamond-quilted, padded polyester in a dark green and navy plaid with thin red accents, sized about 17 by 16.5 inches and roughly 1 inch deep, with short padded shoulder-and-grab handles, a magnetic snap closure, and an interior zip pocket with a key ring clip. Its very slim depth makes it a flat-style tote rather than a roomy one, which matters if you carry bulky items.[1,2,3,4]Red Writing Tote: Choose this if you want a large, casual everyday tote in rugged 100% cotton canvas, with Barbour's heritage-style red print on a natural cream body, two long canvas shoulder straps, and a snap-button top with an inner slit pocket. It measures 19 inches (48 cm) long by 13.75 inches (35 cm) high by 5 inches (12.5 cm) deep and comes in one size. Note that the bag is unlined and closes with snaps rather than a zip, so contents aren't fully enclosed.[5,6,7]Heritage Leather And Waxed-Cotton Briefcase: Choose this if you want a Barbour-style briefcase in waxed cotton with genuine leather trim, offered in Mossy Green or Navy/Midnight Blue in one size. Its zipped main compartment, inner mesh laptop pocket, grab handles, and adjustable, removable crossbody strap with leather shoulder pad suit daily commuting with notebooks and a laptop — one long-term user reports a 15-inch laptop fits with no problems after about three years of daily use. Note its shallow profile (about 2.75 inches deep) and roughly 17 by 11.75 inch footprint, and consider Barbour's official repair service for bags if long-term upkeep matters.[8,9,10,11]
