Product Insights

Ami's raffia tote bag offers designer cachet at a steep discount—over 50% off its original price and significantly cheaper than the brand's leather totes—while incorporating the same black leather handles and Ami de Coeur logo for a city-ready, modern urban silhouette. Its spacious unlined interior and open top prioritize daily utility and beach-day gear, but come with tradeoffs: the raffia frays naturally (repairable by trimming) and cannot be washed, and the bag lacks a closure.

Verified claims

Value
At 299.95 CAD (about $225 USD), the tote is over 50% off its 850 CAD original price; it undercuts the Staud Vista Tote ($395) and sits just above entry-level A.P.C. raffia totes ($213–218), while the modest premium over J.Crew or Madewell totes buys leather handles and the Ami de Coeur logo.
Brand cachet
Ami de Coeur logo matches the brand's $1,000+ totes.
Design differentiation
Black leather handles and the Ami de Coeur logo set this raffia tote apart from logo-less, all-raffia competitors.
Size
At 14.5 x 12.25 x 6.5, the tote is larger than many similarly priced raffia competitors.
Internal pricing
At 299.95 CAD, this tote is priced far below Ami's leather totes—around $1,490 for the Midi Tote Bag and $1,890 for the Small Mimi Logo-Detail Tote—while carrying the Ami de Coeur logo and black leather handles.
Markdown
Currently $299.95 CAD, reduced from $850 CAD – a discount of over 50%.

Open-top, unlined design with single patch pocket prioritizes daily utility.
Logo
Black leather logo in shape of a heart-topped 'A' on the front.
Aesthetic versatility

Leather handles
