Product Insights
Simons' Crocheted Straw Tote Bag is a structured, tear-resistant paper-straw tote that is 10-15% lighter than natural raffia, offering comfortable all-day carry and a self-standing shape with a 5.5-inch gusset for expanded capacity and stability. Its zip top and woven lining secure small items, providing an 18-liter capacity similar to a backpack. This vegan-friendly, low-allergen alternative to raffia is not water-resistant and must be spot-cleaned, making it ideal for dry, sunny days.
Verified claims
- Sturdiness
- Structured and tear-resistant, with a 10-15% weight savings over raffia.
- Care
- Best for sunny days; spot clean paper straw with a barely damp cloth and wipe faux leather with a mild soap solution, avoiding soaking or machine washing.
- Allergens
- Low-allergen, vegan-friendly alternative to natural raffia.
- Carry comfort
- 10-15% lighter than raffia, comfortable all-day carry.
- Structure
- Paper straw bag stands upright for easy loading.
- Tear resistance
- Handles groceries and beach gear without tearing.
- Lightness
- About 10-15% lighter than natural raffia.
- Hand feel
- Smooth texture and firm shape that stays upright.
- Water resistance
- Not water-resistant; best for dry, sunny days.
- Low-allergen
- Lower mold-spore retention and smoother texture than natural raffia.
- Gusset depth
- 5.5-inch gusset roughly doubles capacity and prevents collapse when partially empty.
- Volume & fit
- Interior measures about 18 liters, similar to a standard school backpack.
- Security
- Woven lining and zip top keep small items like keys or a phone from falling out, even when the bag is tipped.
- Capacity
- Zip closure enforces organized packing with about 18 liters capacity.
- Positioning
- Zip top makes this tote more structured than typical open crochet bags.
- Material
- Paper straw is lightweight and tear-resistant but not waterproof.
- Self-standing
- Stiff paper straw and 5.5-inch gusset keep the bag upright even when partially full.
- Spot cleaning
- Spot clean only; moisture can damage the paper straw, so avoid soaking or machine washing.
- Use cases
- The bag is wide enough to take a rolled beach towel or an A4 binder lengthwise and tall enough for a one-liter water bottle or folded dress, so it suits beach days and everyday errands.
- Interior organization
- One buyer likes the bag overall but wishes it had more interior pockets.

| Crocheted Straw Tote Bag: Choose this if you want a roomy, summery tote with breathable crochet character: it is made of crocheted openwork paper straw with faux-leather grab handles, a zip top, and a woven polyester lining with an inside patch pocket. Measuring 16.5 inches long by 12.25 inches high by 5.5 inches wide, it comes in one size and two colors (Off White and Light Brown). Note that the open weave shows the light lining beneath, so its look depends on that see-through crochet effect.[1,2] | Contrast Trim Braided Straw Xl Tote Bag: Choose this if you want an extra-large braided straw tote for carrying a lot — it measures about 16.5 inches long, 13 inches high, and 7 inches wide, with grab or shoulder handles and a removable polyester lining inside a soft paper straw shell. Its dense braided body in dark brown is framed by lighter tan contrast trim along the edges, handles, and top opening, and it comes in Chocolate/Espresso and Light Brown colorways, each in one size. Note that it is an open-top tote with no visible closure, so it may not suit situations where you need to secure the contents.[3,4,5] | Contrast-Handle Braided Raffia Hobo Bag: Choose this if you want a lightweight, natural-fiber shoulder bag for casual, fashion-forward outfits: it is made of braided raffia with a soft teardrop silhouette, a large U-shaped top opening secured by a magnetic snap, and one short contrasting braided shoulder handle. It measures about 15.75 inches long by 10.25 inches high and comes in one size. Note that the interior shows the same open weave with no separate fabric lining, and some customers report the prickly raffia can irritate bare arms on hot days; the thin contrasting handle also divides opinion, with some finding it chic and others returning the bag over it.[6,7,8] |
