Built NY was started in 2002 when Aaron Lown and John Roscoe designed a wine satchel from Italian leather. The bag was both beautiful and purposeful, but extremely expensive to make.
So, in 2003, Aaron and John designed a more affordable wine bag out of “neopene,” Yes, the same material utilized in wet suits. And this is when Built truly came to be.
Built NY has bags, totes, and purses available for on the go convenience. Along with these bags, they also have wine totes. In their own words:
BUILT is a New York-based company that designs fashionable and functional bags, totes, and cases for life on the go. Our roots in American industrial design guide us in the belief that form is as important as function and that great design makes life more enjoyable. Drawing inspiration from the city that never sleeps, we apply color and pattern to laptop sleeves, iPad cases, camera bags, lunch totes, and other accessories that protect the stuff you love wherever you go.
These wine totes keep your wine insulated when on the go. They also make for a great house warming gift.
Being a huge wino myself when I ran across these wine totes I was ecstatic! They offer both single and double toted wine bags.
The wine tote to the left is an Origami Wine tote. What’s truly neat about this wine tote is that it scrunches down, meaning it’s a ton of fun to play with. They retail at 24.99
The wine tote to the right is an example of their single wine totes that are available. They have a variety of designs to choose from so choose what’s right for you.
How cool is that?
They also have double toted wine bags available for you.
The red bag is convenient as you carry it by the handles. And let me tell you if I ever received this as a house warming gift or hostess gift I’d be ecstatic! The red bag retails at: 17.99
The black bag is really neat in that it has over the shoulder straps so it’s extremely convenient for on the go. Anytime you shop at a wine store, bring this bag with you, after purchasing your wine, pop them in the bag and away you go.
