The Rule #1 Library Tote

Inspired by a hat based on our book that got us stopped in airports and malls around the country and with styling inspired by our favorite t-shirt from college, this collection is simple because Rule #1 is simple, but that doesn’t make it easy. Pick your favorite piece or wear them all. You’ll be surprised how many people will compliment you and ask where they can get one too. 

A sturdy cotton canvas tote printed with bold, black lettering that reads a simple, honest message. The heavy 12 oz fabric and flat-corner construction give it a structured, utilitarian feel that holds groceries, books, and daily essentials without sagging. Long, reinforced self-fabric handles sit comfortably over the shoulder for hands-free carrying. The natural canvas and minimalist black-print design make it straightforward and unapologetic—an everyday statement piece for those who prefer clear communication and low-fuss style.
