Q1: Does the Small Tour Tote fit a standard 13-inch laptop?
A1: No. With an internal vertical clearance of 7.75 inches and length of 8.75 inches, it cannot house a 13-inch MacBook or full-size tablet. It accommodates tablets up to 8.3 inches, such as an iPad mini, e-readers, or small notebooks.
Q2: Will the blue indigo dye rub off on white clothes?
A2: Unwashed or lightly treated denim fabrics always carry some risk of indigo dye transfer under friction and damp conditions. Spraying the bag with a high-grade textile protector and avoiding contact with pale fabrics during heavy rain significantly minimizes this risk.
Q3: How do I tell if a pre-owned Tour Tote is authentic?
A3: Examine the hardware engravings, stitching tension, and the internal leather creed patch. Authentic bags use heavy cast metal clips with crisp, centered brand stamps, precise contrast stitching that never overlaps haphazardly, and a stamped leather patch with clean, legible alignment.
