Is the turnlock a working closure?

The turnlock is a front detail; the bag's main closure is a zipper. Treat the turnlock as decoration, not as a lock that secures the bag.

How much does it hold?

At roughly 13 by 9.25 by 8 inches, it fits a tablet, a small laptop, a wallet, a phone and a water bottle. It is a mid-size tote, not an overnight bag.

Can it be worn on the shoulder?

Yes. It has top handles and a shoulder strap, so you can carry it by hand or over the shoulder.

Is the leather water-resistant?

The pebble grain leather has a water-repellent finish, so light rain beads off. It is not waterproof, so avoid soaking it.

How does it compare with other Dooney totes?

It is more structured and has a front turnlock detail, while many Dooney totes are softer and slouchier. Choose this one if you want a bag that holds its shape.

There is an interior zip pocket, slip pockets and a zip compartment, plus a beige lining that makes items easier to find.

Our take on the Dooney & Bourke Turnlock Handle Tote Bag

The Dooney & Bourke Turnlock Handle Tote is a structured pebble grain leather tote with a front turnlock detail, top handles and a shoulder strap. It measures about 13 inches wide by 9.25 inches tall and 8 inches deep, so it holds a tablet, a small laptop and daily essentials without looking bulky. Inside there is a zip pocket, slip pockets and a zip compartment to keep things organized. It suits shoppers who want a designer leather tote for everyday carry and prefer a classic shape over a slouchy one. Against softer leather totes it trades some give for structure and a water-repellent finish; owners of Dooney pebble grain bags generally praise the leather's durability, though the turnlock and open top draw mixed comments.
