Jute has been a big part of our history because of how versatile and long-lasting it is. Primarily used for packaging in the past, it has slowly found its way into fashion. It has high tensile strength with low extensibility, which basically means that it can hold weighty stuff —encyclopaedias, gamer laptops, 3-litre water bottles and still not wear out. Using a jute bag doesn't only mean you're on-trend, it also means you're being sustainable, as the fabric is 100 per cent biodegradable. So without further ado, here's a list under INR 3,000.
7 Bags Under INR 3,000 To Bring Jute Into Your Wardrobe (& Not Go Broke)
Shoulder Bag By Kleio
Shoulder bags have been trending and it's not only because the designs literally go with any fit but also because they're compact while being spacious enough to carry all your essentials. If you're looking for something more structured then definitely check out this Jute Canvas option.
Discounted Price: INR 1,254 (48% off)
Coin Embellished Jute Sling Bag By Priyaasi
If you're familiar with Vipul Shah, you already know and love this type of design. I’ve always wanted one for myself, but the price was always too high. Thanks to Priyaasi, we've found a very similar-looking style, very boho-chic, at an unbelievable discount too.
Discounted Price: INR 1,059 (80 per cent off)
Jute Potli By Odette
Of course, we had to find you a festive Indian option during this time of the year! This potli has got a magnetic closure, which makes it so much easier to use, and it also looks like it holds its form, unlike most potli-style bags.
Jute Tote Bag By Pravo
Tote bags are a blessing for everyday use. They fit everything from your laptop to lunchbox to make-up to books to water bottle to your entire house. Jute totes are usually plain and very boring but not this one, it's got embellished beads and fringe detailing, making it stand out. For me, the zip closure is the icing on the cake since most totes don't carry one.
Discounted Price: INR 3,150 (10 per cent off), I know it's 150 over budget but totally worth it.
Boho Sling Bag By Anekaant
Screaming boho at full volume, this sling is cute, and I'd say a nice addition to your vacation wardrobe. I can just imagine beaches, sun hats and this bag fitting perfectly.
Discounted Price: INR 1,955 (15 per cent off)
Half Moon Clutch By Dhaaga Handcrafts
Dhaaga Handcrafts makes the most amazing range of bags you definitely won't find anywhere else. Their collection is a unique blend of ethnic and trendy designs handcrafted with eco-friendly materials like jute. And we're in love with this half-moon hand-embroidered clutch.
Discounted Price: INR 2,600
Mini Tote By A & S Accessories
Made with a blend of faux leather and jute, I think this one is perfect for office use. It's a good size, looks like it'll easily be able to fit in all work essentials while still remaining compact and sleek. The design and colours are such that it won’t look out of place with most outfits. There's also another greyish blue colour option available.
