The foldable tote bag built for life on the road

A good tote earns its place on every trip. The problem is finding room for it when it is not in use. Van Go foldable tote bags solve that by folding back into their own attached zip pouch, turning from a full-size shopping bag into something small enough to slip into a handbag, a day pack or a glove box. No bulk, no hunting for a bag at the checkout, no excuse to reach for a single-use plastic.

One bag, two uses — the self-storing zip pouch

When the tote is open and in use, the attached zip pouch becomes a handy interior pocket for your keys, phone or card. When you are done, the whole bag folds back into the pouch and zips closed. It slips into a handbag side pocket, a day pack or a jacket pocket, weighs almost nothing and is always ready when you need it. This is the fold up tote bag that actually stays in your bag rather than getting left behind at home.

Hand-illustrated caravan and camping designs

Every Van Go tote carries the same hand-illustrated artwork as the rest of the range. Each design features the iconic vintage caravans and campervans that inspired the Van Go Collections brand, drawn by founder Victoria from years of research into the history of van life around the world. The kind of caravan tote bag people notice and ask about at the market or the campsite.

For the beach, the market and the laundromat run

Market mornings in a country town, a beach bag for the day, a run to the camp store, a laundromat trip when the laundry bag is full. Van Go camping tote bags and caravan tote bags are made for the everyday moments that make up a good trip. Lightweight, reusable and printed in colours that hold through wash after wash.

The tote bags sit in the Organisation collection alongside the Van Go laundry bag range and the Slide n'Dry clothesline. Browse the full Caravan Essentials tab to complete your van life kit.
