Some cities stay with you forever.

Potatote was born in Oxford from a simple idea: the places that hold our memories deserve to be remembered in a thoughtful way.

We turn streets, buildings and city scenes into beautiful, practical products. They’re little memories you can take with you wherever you go.

Our story

It all started in Oxford, with two friends chatting over coffee. Angel, an illustrator who loves capturing the city's spires and cobblestones, and Shuyu, an engineer who loves tote bags but constantly panics about losing keys in her cluttered bag.

Somewhere between laughter and coffee, Potatote was born: a tote with the heart of a potato: warm, full of character, and made with care. Each bag celebrates the city we love, blending thoughtful design, artwork and practical features for everyday adventures.
