The archetypal tote is made of sturdy cloth, perhaps with thick
leather at handles or bottom; leather versions often have a pebbled
surface. Common fabrics include heavy canvas, possibly dyed, or treated
to resist moisture and mold. Jute is another traditional material,
though less popular. In recent decades, heavy nylon and other easy-care
synthetics have become common, although these may degrade with prolonged
sun-exposure. Many of today's inexpensive/free totes are often made
from recycled matter, from minimally-processed natural fibers, or from
byproducts of processes that refine organic materials.
The term tote, meaning "to carry", can be traced back to the 17th century but was not used to describe bags until 1900.
