These tote bags are super easy to use. Just open the top and put your essentials inside like your phone, wallet, and keys. When you're out and about, the bag's size is great for carrying your daily items. As for maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe off any dust or dirt. Avoid getting the bag wet for long periods as it's made of faux leather. Also, be careful not to scratch the mixed - metal parts. And remember, due to the chemicals in it, don't let it come into contact with food or drink.
