I have stained and ruined many bags by using them to bring "supplies" to the barn and horse shows. This awesome tote stays so much cleaner and the SmartPink Plaid is uber fashionable. I just love this bag!

I have owned the blue version of this bag for about five years now, and it still looks and acts like I just bought it. I haul EVERYTHING to the barn in it, and you literally can fit SO much, I'm kind of not kidding with my baby and the kitchen sink reference. It holds SO much, and then holds some more. I am not easy on this tote, and it just holds up! In fact, when the pink one went on sale for 18 bucks a year or so ago, I grabbed it, because I'm so rough on Mr. Blue that I was sure his days were going to be up, and I didn't want to be out of a bag! This product is recommended by me without reservation! This is the best bag ever. The pink bag was given to my GF so she could have one too, as I won't be needing it anytime soon. The saddle pads which I also own, are just as quality. Oh, and the fly masks and fly boots. LOVE the look, and the quality for the money. On the fence? DO NOT BE.

Very sturdy and roomy enough to pack books, jackets, snacks, and a number of small items for my recent trip out-of-state. It's easy to carry in my hands or over the shoulder while lugging suitcase and another tote bag. Will be really handy this winter when I'm trailering my horse to ride in an indoor arena at night. Now I'll have something to throw the items that move around in my truck and are hard to find in the dark: helmet, gloves, towels, bridle--might even be able to stash the fleece cooler in this bag!

bag was much larger than I expected. It feels like it is made out of plastic fibers, so I don't know if it is even washable. My daughter doesn't care for the plaid design and would have liked it more if it was solid pink instead. I prefer the size and cotton material of our "Life Is Good" bag much better.

I have only had this bag a couple weeks and had purchased it to use at shows. I have used it for everything! Every time I need to throw some stuff together to go anywhere this bag is by my side. Trail rides, shows, evacuations, etc, it is perfect! I was hesitant because of the price but now I am glad I got it and it has paid for itself already. It's strong and has tons of room for boots, saddle pads, small buckets, bottles and brushes, and whatever else you need. Well worth the money.

After comparing many totes I settled on this one. Good choice !!!! The size is perfect. Very roomy, keeps it's shape, doesn't fall down when it's empty unless you fold it down. I now have three. The color choices are perfect. Compare totes .. this one wins over all of them .

I love this bag. It is the quality which one expects from Kensington. I have stuffed this tote with multiple saddle pads, riding helmet and more. It does not soil easily and it can handle wet gear.

I have owned this bag in the Smart Blue Plaid for over a year, and am about to order one in sage green--always good to have an extra in case they are discontinued, not to mention I may just want to change up my color for the day! This bag has surpassed my expectations. It is durable, and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the size! It holds everything I need to take to the barn (and then holdsl some more) ! I even recently used it as a beach bag, and it worked perfectly for that too! I would recommend this bag as well as the saddle pads --I have them in blue and pink, and their quality is wonderful as well! :)

This bag is enormous, at least twice the size of your average reusable shopping bag. I use mine to store cooling supplies for my dogs when we attend agility trials -- portable fans, reflective panels and clips, and extra water buckets. The straps are wide and comfortable to hold. I LOVE the pink plaid, too!

This bag is a lot larger than it appears in the pictures! I at first thought I wouldn't need that much room but it turned out to be very handy and can carry pretty much anything you need to have at a horse show! In addition it's waterproof, so it's easy to clean, which is very helpful!

When I pulled this bag out initially I thought it would be way too large but after I started using it I found it was the perfect size. I wanted to use it for carting my wash stall supplies around but its too big for that. Now I use it for taking stuff too and from the barn. Rather than make 3 trips to my car to bring out my girth, saddle pads, fly sheet, blankets or anythign else I need to bring home to put in the wash I can make one single trip. This bag is great.
I would not recommend personalizing it though. My initials are so small its not even worth it unless someone else has the same bag as you.

Bought the tote to match my horses turn out , halter and lead rope. It is roomy, nice and sturdy
with strong handles. I think it will be easy to keep clean. The small pocket on the front is great for keys or small treats. Would love to have more matching stuff!

I have been looking for a tote bag that is big enough to transport blankets and fly sheets home to be laundered. This bag is exactly what I have been looking for! Not only is it big enough and durable enough, but due to the textilene material it makes a fantastic beach tote!
