Balenciaga has released a new golden chain tote bag called the Crush Tote bag. The overall appearance of the tote bag is similar to its Trash Pouch, which was released in 2022. However, the distinction between the two is that this tote bag st is shaped to look like a tote bag and comes with an expensive golden chain as its strap.
The Italian-made tote bag has a sack-like structure with cotton canvas lining and is made of crushed calfskin leather. The tote bag is versatile as it can be carried like a shoulder bag, as the aged-golden chain strap is 9.2 inches long. The inside of the tote bag is merely empty space except for its one inner zipped pocket. A drawstring closure system is added to the tote bag, and a branding logo is worded "Balenciaga," and below that is worded "Paris" on the side. The tote bag comes in two sizes: small and medium. The small version is available for $2,250, and the medium version is available for $2,500.
