Vera Bradley Hathaway Tote vs Vera Bradley Knollton Travel Tote

Both are Vera Bradley totes rated 4.7, but they serve different jobs. The Hathaway is a smaller leather tote with a structured look and a convertible top that folds in, best for everyday carry and work days. The Knollton is a larger recycled-nylon travel tote with a padded laptop sleeve, water-repellent shell and a trolley sleeve, best for travel and commutes with a laptop. Owners of both praise the organization and build; the Hathaway draws more style comments, the Knollton more packing-room comments.

• Choose the Hathaway if you want a leather everyday tote that looks polished, carries over the shoulder and converts to a shorter shape.
• Choose the Knollton if you need to carry a laptop and a weekend's worth of gear in one water-repellent bag.
