Literal Book Bags

This Collection of Totes Looks Like Over-Sized Popular Novels

The online shop called ‘krukrustudio’ created this collection of literal book bags for the avid reader. Each bag is designed to look like a popular piece of over-sized of literacy in the form of a bag.

Described as a “messenger bag,” the satchels are to be worn over one’s shoulder to rest upon their side or hip. The front of the bags are crafted to look identical to the cover of books such as ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and ‘Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.’ When the tote is opened, the inside flat features the first page of the book's first chapter. Written in a legible text, the consumer has an (almost) literal book wherever they go.

The bags are durable and large enough to be used for school or work. They make great holiday gifts for book-lovers as well.
