The classic tote bag has been a staple piece for the last few seasons—and as far as I’m concerned, I don’t see that changing. The lightweight feel and roomy interior make for a great go-to purse, work bag, and beach tote, among many other types of carries. And although these bags come in many colors and materials, why wouldn’t you opt for a denim version?

We can all agree denim is incredibly versatile and can be styled in a virtually endless number of ways. There are the classics: jeans, shorts, skirts, and jackets, but in addition to wearing the all-American material, consider accessorizing with it. A denim tote will not only be durable—just like its trusty canvas cousin—but will also pair well with nearly anything in your wardrobe. Dress yours up with a kitten heel and a dainty dress or down with shorts and your coolest pair of combat boots—there’s no going wrong here.

Like a good pair of blue jeans, denim will never go out of style. So go ahead; invest in one, two, or even a handful of these cool and casual totes. I went ahead and rounded up some of the chicest options on the market just for you. Shop the best denim tote bags, below.
