Female-Founded Brand Solves The Bag Problem Every Concertgoer Knows Too Well
DALLAS, Sept. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Meet Show Tote, the stylish, solution-driven accessories brand born out of a moment too many know: being turned away at the venue gate because your bag didn't meet the size rules. Frustrated but inspired, childhood best friends and lifelong show-goers Christine Kane (music manager) and Deborah Bowles (marketing exec) founded Show Tote because they were determined to flip the script and create bags that follow the rules and turn heads.
Designed to breeze through security without sacrificing style, Show Tote is the go-to solution for over 1,100 U.S. venues, from concerts and festivals to stadiums, sporting events, and beyond. The launch collection includes seven regulation-approved styles: The Handle, The Mini, The Phone, The Camera, The Envelope Clear, The Tote Clear, and The Essential Clear. Each bag is crafted from richly-grained Italian leather and features designed hardware with quality interior lining. Handcrafted details include a double credit card slot for convenience and an easily accessible lipstick loop with various strap styles. Show Tote bags are offered in a chic color palette, including rock-n-roll black, saddle brown, and vibrant red – blending everyday function with fashion-forward design and made in the USA.
Every Show Tote is easy to customize with chain straps, charms, and accessories that let you make it yours. And with an intuitive shopping experience – just enter your event, date, and venue – the website instantly shows the size restrictions and the styles that match, taking the guesswork out of getting through the gate.
"Venue bag rules are confusing, inconsistent, and honestly kind of a pain," said Christine Kane, Co-Founder of Show Tote. "So we created Show Tote to cut through the chaos… a bag that not only gets you in, but helps you stand out long after the show's over."
The Show Tote collection is now available for purchase online from $198.00 to $378. Visit www.showtote.com and follow @ShowTote on Instagram and TikTok.
