About City Totes

City Totes is a Philadelphia, PA based, woman owned, slow fashion design studio. Created in response to the fashion industry's impact on the climate crisis as a solution for unused textiles. We present two small batch collections a year using only deadstock fabrics. Our totes are classic in design and handcrafted to last a lifetime in a variety of fun and timeless textiles. The Greater Philadelphia area's textile recycling movement is having a renaissance. The goal is shifting the local textile system into a circular one that seeks to eliminate waste, keeps textiles in use for longer periods & redesigns end-of-life materials into new, usable items. Our Small Batch Production is distinguished by quality, locally sourced & manufactured items that are produced on a smaller scale with slower production time. It also includes spending more time on the design process, ensuring that each piece is quality made. The Slow Fashion movement encourages a variety of sustainable practices, including environmental consideration to water usage, waste & landfill diversion. The principles of slow fashion include: sustainable materials, fewer collections, fair trade, minimizing waste, making great use of resources and transparency.Read their story
