The Korie Tote is heritage-inspired, everyday-practical, and handcrafted to last for years to come. Featuring our favorite full-grain leather, Swiss-made zippers, and solid brass hardware, including our new FOUNT nameplate, the Korie is built to last. 

One of our favorite details of the Korie Tote is the stunning image of a lighthouse stamped on the interior pocket with the verse: “You are the light of the world.” (Matthew 5:14).
