Pinstripe Zipper Tote

This bag is the perfect size for a day at the beach or the pool- and it shakes off water and sand without a problem. The bag weighs practically nothing and is cute enough to not be boring.

I am now getting these for my sister's gifts, my friend's, my daughter, and already got one ahead of time for our family Christmas gift exchange. It packs up nice and small to take on a vacation so you have a bag for shopping or bringing along a towel, or jacket, or whatever you might need for a long day.

I purchased to use as pool/beach bag. Works well for that. The top is zippered. It's a black bag with white print. It's very, very lightweight. Relatively waterproof. Straps are a nylon strip. Easy to pack and easy to use. I actually purchased 2. This black and white version and a white with a colorful palm leaf motif. Both are very nice. Having said all of this, I never hesitate to update my reviews should new info seem useful. All of my reviews reflect my honest, personal experience with the reviewed item - your experience may be different. I am not influenced by any outside source. I receive/accept NO free products or discounts that are not available to all shoppers- ever. I also refuse to 'change' my review for a refund of a product I have given a poor review - and that is offered from time to time. For some reason our shopper ranks are no longer visible - so, to give you a little more info about me, I am a top 50 reviewer (#30 the highest rank achieved). It's a shame they phased this rating system out because it did help you see who has been around the longest and who is a trustworthy reviewer.  I've been doing reviews for over 25 years with Amazon - over 6,200 reviews posted, those reviews have been viewed well over 50,000 times, including well over 26,000 likes. BOTTOM LINE:  I pay for all my stuff, just like you do.

I very sadly lost my old one (traveling…) so I got this new one (Pau Hana) to replace it and to my extremely pleasant surprise, they’ve even updated it! Now it has zippered pockets inside on BOTH sides and still has my outside zippered pocket! So much room! Perfectly waterproof! Everyone should have one!

Cute bag but very cheap material. After using the bag for one week on a tropical beach vacation the bag has cracks in it that makes the bag look old/used and ugly. Very low quality and NOT worth the money. I can NOT use it again because it looks like I picked it up in the trash and I can’t return it since it’s passed the 30 days (31).

This is my second bag. You can rinse it out if there is sand or sunscreen inside. It is super light weight. And so so cute!

I've just had the bag for a week, but I'm really pleased with it so far! I love the material of the bag and the straps - it feels sturdy enough to hold a full load and last, it's easy to clean, AND it's lightweight. It's not huge - It's just what I was looking for though. I keep a mesh tote with lots of pockets packed with our pool toys and gear. I wanted another bag for other summer outings (think splash pad, park, etc) or for when I needed a second pool bag so I didn't have to unload and repack my designated pool bag. (Spoiled? Maybe.) This has comfortably held 2-3 thin beach towels, change of clothes, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, snacks, and my phone and keys. I did buy the small and large zipper pouches from Aloha to use as a snack bag and dry/wet bag inside this one. Love those, too. I also like that this one can zip and can fold down small when not in use. I'd buy it again and it may make it to my gift giving list!

Pros: It's lightweight, packed easily in our suitcase for our tropical vacation, beautiful design and equipped with 2 large interior pockets and an exterior pocket for storage of smaller items. Fabulous and pragmatic design.Cons: Overall very disappointed in how the bag held up. After just the first day of use, a yellow discoloration showed up on both sides of the bag. I confirmed nothing leaked inside the bag, or was transferred externally to cause the discoloration. Also, the bag developed a couple of small tears at the bottom. It survived our vacation by serving its purpose, but I'm extremely disappointed that it is already showing significant signs of wear and tear after the first day of use, especially for the price. It was not a cheap bag.
