Great for back to school, for work, or just plain having fun!
When looking for a lunch tote, you want that tote to be durable and capable of keeping your lunch dry and either cold or warm. The perfect solution is a neoprene lunch tote that can waterproof your lunch and provide an element of insulation.
Wouldn't it be an extra benefit to be able to find such a lunch tote that is fashionable and stylish too? I've found some of the coolest, neoprene lunch totes! Built NY is definitely one of my all-time favorite brands for their innovative use of neoprene.
P.S. These lunch totes are cool enough to transition into handbags! I've got this one that I'm using as a handbag.
Do you love neoprene or not?
Keep food hot or cold for up to four hours.

A Review of the Gourmet Getaway Tote
5 Stars!
January 10, 2008. By L. Ellis. LOVE this bag. This is a great lunch bag. I love the size - not too big, not too small. It fits a big 5C square plastic storage container AND a 3 cup oblong, plus fruit and a couple small containers or baggies AND one of those blue ice packs that's 5 x 2-1/2 x 1 inches. The ice stays solid most of the day in an average office environment, right through snack time at 3:00. The fabric is substantial, the zipper heavy-duty and everything zips up just fine. No regrets at all about spending $25 on this.
