Product Insights
Faux leather shell is 100% polyurethane (PU), with a 100% polyester lining. Height 25 cm (9.75"), width 43 cm (17"), depth 13.5 cm (5.25"). Magnetic snap-button closure; no zip-top, so the mouth sits open by design. Wipe clean with a soft cloth; damp cloth for marks, then air dry. Avoid alcohol, solvents, and stiff brushes. PU faux leather may eventually crack or peel at high-flex points like handle roots and the top edge, though premature peeling is not flagged for this braided style. At 225 CAD, it is a mid-priced designer tote with a distinctive woven look and included dust bag.
Verified claims
- material
- Faux leather shell is 100% polyurethane (PU), with a 100% polyester lining.
- construction
- Woven/braided exterior with glossy interlaced strips, smooth piping, and flared side wings.
- dimensions
- Height 25 cm (9.75"), width 43 cm (17"), depth 13.5 cm (5.25").
- capacity

- handles
- Two long rounded shoulder straps, smooth and glossy, allow grab or shoulder carry.
- closure
- Magnetic snap-button closure; no zip-top, so the mouth sits open by design.
- security
- Open-top design offers limited security; keep valuables in the interior patch pocket or a zip pouch.
- organization
- One interior patch pocket; no other internal dividers.
- lining
- Beige suede-like polyester lining.
- hardware
- Gold-tone metal clasp and JW PEI branding on front and interior pocket.
- styling
- Glossy black woven finish with gold hardware reads polished and dressy, not sporty.
- care
- Wipe clean with a soft cloth; damp cloth for marks, then air dry. Avoid alcohol, solvents, and stiff brushes.
- care
- Do not machine wash, soak, or submerge; avoid heat and direct sunlight; store dry and ventilated.
- durability
- PU faux leather may eventually crack or peel at high-flex points like handle roots and the top edge, though premature peeling is not flagged for this braided style.
- usage
- Best carried on the shoulder with the base level; avoid hanging a heavy bag from one handle.
- sizing

- value
- At 225 CAD, it is a mid-priced designer tote with a distinctive woven look and included dust bag.
- packaging
- Signature dust bag included.
- variant
- Available in Black, one size.
- comparison
- Unlike smooth vegan leather styles, this braided PU tote has a textured surface that may require gentler cleaning to avoid lifting the woven finish.

Carrying the Hana tote by hand or over the shoulder
This braided tote works both as a grab bag and as a shoulder bag, with long rounded straps that arch upward from the upper edges for over-the-shoulder wear. A magnetic snap closure and an interior patch pocket help keep contents secured and small items easy to find. One reviewer notes the size you choose matters: a half-empty large Hana tends to slouch, while a full medium stands up on its own.[1,2,3]
Wiping down and storing your Hana tote
The faux leather bag cleans up with a simple wipe of a damp cloth—no machine washing, soaking, or harsh cleaners. Let it air dry away from heat and direct sun, and when you're not carrying it, tuck it into the included signature dust bag or a cool, dry spot away from sharp objects.[1,4]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Hana Braided Tote Bag: Choose this if you want a roomy shoulder tote in glossy black faux leather with a woven, diamond-grid exterior, two long rounded handles, and a magnetic snap closure. Measuring about 17 inches wide by 9.75 inches high by 5.25 inches deep, it offers an interior patch pocket, a beige suede-like lining, and comes with a signature dust bag. Note that care requires wiping clean with a damp cloth (no machine washing or soaking), and according to a reviewer, Hana totes hold their shape best when filled rather than carried half-empty.[1,2,3,4,5,6] | Joy Wavy Baguette Bag: Choose this if you want a compact black baguette bag in vegan leather (polyurethane with certified recycled plastic bottles) that converts from shoulder handle to crossbody via an adjustable, undetachable strap with snap fasteners at about 11.2 or 22.4 inches. A reviewer found the magnetic snap closures hold the flap securely and the bag fits all essentials with room to spare, while noting its shallow 10.5 by 5.75 by 2.25 inch body just fits a Kindle Paperwhite 4, a short wallet, and several makeup items. Its tapered bottom means it cannot sit upright and must lie flat on its back, so it suits light-carry days rather than bulky loads.[7,8] | Harlee Asymmetric Shoulder Bag: Choose this for a distinctive, asymmetric crescent silhouette crafted from pebbled synthetic leather and accented with polished silver-toned hardware. This lightweight bag features a grab or shoulder handle and an interior zip pocket. Note that while the pebbled material is durable, some customers have reported that the synthetic leather feels stiff.[9,10,11,12,13] |
