ANCOATS MA-1a…

A pretty special custom build lead to this limited batch of Olive VX42 4-Way totes.

So, what are we looking at? It’s a Fully Loaded 4-way tote, using VX42 Olive Nylon on the outside, a tonal Olive front strap, the whole 4-way convertible system out-back with the Fidlock magnetic hardware hanging on Black Straps. Pulling on the Hand Dipped Orange Rubber Coated Ally pullers unzips the YKK Aquaguard weather proof closure, then we’re hit with that Orange Reversed 500d Cordura lining, the Admin panel for your pens and shizzle, and on the backside, the laptop divider panel with Twin Zipped drop pockets.

It’s a lot of Tote.

It’s a pre specified option. Nothing to select here but the size. This is a limited pre-order for the first batch of MA-1a Ancoats totes.

And in that Olive Nylon and Orange, I’m getting MA-1 Bomber Jacket vibes (hence the name!) 🤟

The Ancoats Tote really is an incredible Urban carry piece. It takes care of most of your everyday carry requirements, whilst also converting between 4 methods of carry, to best assist you through your day.

Inside: the bag is specced with a fully loaded interior, using reversed Orange 500d Cordura. This is a durable and tough enough material to be an exterior fabric, so you know this tote is going to go the distance. And that Orange pop lining means you open the Tote up and have no problem finding your stuff, and also gives that bright hit. You’ve got a laptop divider panel with twin zipped 15cm deep drop pockets, an Organiser panel on the front wall and the back of the bag is padded with 3mm EVA to take the edge off whilst offering some additional protection and structure.

Unlike the other Totes, this one is not customisable. This is like a pre-drop. There is only one decision: Standard or Large.

Standard: 39cm (width at top) x 40cm (height) x 7cm (depth at base) x 33cm (width at base)
Large: 42cm (width at top) x 44cm (height) x 9cm (depth at base) x 35cm (width at base)

Please Note: These are limited availability due to my fabric and trims stock. Once the inventory is accounted for, the pre-order is closed. These are planned to build and ship middle to end of February 2025.
