Canvas Tote Backpack – 3-Way Convertible Bag with Front Pockets
This canvas tote backpack is a flat, zip-top canvas bag that can be carried three ways: by its tote handles, on a long shoulder strap, or on the back like a rucksack. It has a patch pocket and a drawstring bottle pocket on the front. Easy Life Markets sells it in black, pink, white and yellow.
It is a casual bag for school, college, commuting and days out. The supplier lists the body as canvas with a cotton lining and a zip opening, and its photos show the same bag worn all three ways. At 38 cm tall and 34 cm wide it takes books and folders easily, and it folds flat when empty.
What Is in the Box
The supplier does not publish a packing list. The product is one bag. The items shown in the photos, such as the umbrella, phone and magazines, are props.

Canvas bags are measured by hand, so allow a centimetre or two either way. Strap lengths are not stated.
Three Ways to Carry It
- As a tote. Two short handles at the top for carrying by hand or over the shoulder.
- As a shoulder or crossbody bag. A long strap clips to rings at the sides.
- As a backpack. In the supplier's photos the bag is worn on the back with two straps running from the top to the lower corners.
The supplier does not explain how the straps are rearranged between modes, and the photos do not show every step. Expect to spend a minute working it out the first time. If you want to know before ordering, contact us.
What Fits Inside
The main compartment is tall, wide and slim. Going by the measurements, it takes A4 folders, notebooks, textbooks and a light jumper. The 5 cm depth is the limit: it is a bag for flat things, and a lunch box or bulky shoes will make it bulge.
Laptops and tablets. The supplier does not list a padded sleeve or give a laptop size. The outer dimensions are larger than many 13 and 14 inch laptops, but with no padding stated we would use a separate protective sleeve. Measure your device against 38 × 34 cm before relying on it.
The front pockets. The flat pocket suits a phone, travel card or notebook. In the photos the drawstring pocket holds a folding umbrella. It would also take a slim water bottle.
A Straight Answer on the Details
- "Backpack". The original listing called this a backpack. It is really a tote that converts. With thin straps and no back padding, it is comfortable on the back for light loads. For heavy books every day, a padded school rucksack is the better tool.
- Water resistance. None is claimed. Canvas soaks up rain.
- Inner pockets. None are listed.
- The label. The small label on the front carries lettering as a design detail. It is the maker's own. We sell the bag as unbranded.
- Not stated: Weight, strap lengths and the weight the bag is built to carry.
About Canvas
Canvas is a heavy, plain-woven fabric, traditionally used for sails, tents and work bags because it is strong for its weight. It softens with use, takes dye well and can be cleaned with soap and water, which is why it remains the standard cloth for tote bags.
Choosing a Colour
Black hides marks and suits daily commuting. Yellow and pink are bright and easy to spot. White looks clean and fresh in the supplier's photos, but it will show dirt soonest, as any white canvas does.
Care
- Empty the bag and shake out crumbs and dust.
- Spot clean with a cloth, cool water and a little mild soap.
- For a full clean, hand wash in cool water. Wash colours separately the first time, in case the dye runs.
- Reshape the bag while damp and dry it in the air, away from direct sun.
- Do not tumble dry. Cotton canvas can shrink with heat.
- Iron on a low setting if needed, avoiding the label, clips and cord.
Who It Suits
Students carrying folders and notebooks, commuters who want a light second bag, and anyone who likes a tote but sometimes needs both hands free. The original listing describes it as a bag for students, and the supplier lists it as a women's bag. The plain shape and colours suit anyone.
