Style, size, and price are the main factors that distinguish one tennis tote from another. Here are my favorite picks for the best tennis totes.

Known for its premium bags, it’s no surprise Vessel’s tennis tote impresses with a stylish design and essential features.
The Baseline microsuede synthetic leather tote comes in four colors and is durable, heat resistant, and easy to clean.
There are two slip pockets on the outside – the perfect size for a water bottle and can of balls. A third pocket functions as a sleeve for the handle of your carry-on luggage, which means this bag is just as well suited for traveling as it is the court.
On the inside, there are two main compartments. One is padded and dedicated to carrying up to two tennis racquets with a zipper. The other main compartment also features a zipper and is large enough to fit all your daily gear.
I love that there are five interior pockets for organizing accessories and daily essentials. One of them is a velour-lined pocket for valuables like your cell phone or sunglasses.
As a bonus, there’s a key clip, so you don’t lose them at the bottom, and a removable nylon shoe bag for carrying your shoes without getting everything else dirty.
Last but not least, the Vessel Baseline tote has two straps that can go over your arm or shoulder, depending on your preference.

The Stance tote is one of the latest additions to the Geau Sport lineup, which is a sporty shoulder bag for the ladies that offers plenty of storage, a stable construction, and practical features for a day at the court.
The bag comes in two colors, black or sapphire blue, and can store up to two oversized tennis racquets in the main compartment.
Opposite the racquet storage, there’s a section for placing larger items, including a light jacket, a change of clothes, or a pair of shoes. It also includes a pocket specifically designed to fit a can of tennis balls while working well for a water bottle that you want to stay upright.
There’s a sturdy main compartment zipper to keep your items secure in case the bag falls over and an additional magnetic closure that folds over the top to provide easy access when the zipper is not in use.
On the bag’s outside, you’ll find a sizable front pocket, which is felt-lined to protect delicate items and valuables, along with plenty of slip pockets for storing your phone, sunglasses, and smaller accessories. Inside the front pocket, a key clip and an additional full-height zip pocket provide even more organizational storage.
At the front of the bag, there’s one additional pocket perfect for your water bottle and roomy enough for a can of balls. The Stance tote also features five metal feet that prevent the bottom from touching the ground when setting it down to keep it clean. Alternatively, you can use the integrated hook at the bag’s top for hanging it on a fence for quick and easy access without bending, one of my favorite features.
If you’re looking for a fair-priced premium bag with a sporty design that stands tall and delivers excellent organizational storage, then Geau Stance Tote will be a perfect match.

Tory Burch offers one of the most stylish and high-quality tennis totes with a hefty price tag that shouldn’t be surprising if you’re familiar with the brand.
The bag comes in two colors: a coated canvas with a bold maroon stripe or a navy blue faux leather option.
Although similar, the totes have slightly different features, so I’ll cover the canvas option, my favorite of the two.
For starters, the tote carries up to two racquets in a detachable front zip compartment that, once removed, converts it to a stylish bag with a simple design that’s perfect for summer.
On both sides of the tote, you can store a can of balls or a water bottle, and there is a third exterior pocket for stashing items that you might need to access quickly on the go.
The Tory Burch tennis tote opens at the top with a magnetic closure. Inside, you’ll find a mesh zip pocket with a card slot for quick access, and then there’s another wall zip pocket with two pen holders.
One of my favorite parts of the bag is the shoe or laundry compartment with zip closure, so you don’t have to mix these items with anything else you’re carrying.
Finally, the bag has two top handles with an 8.75 in (22 cm) drop and a removable cross-body strap that’s adjustable up to 26 in (66 cm).

Last but certainly not least, the Ame & Lulu tennis tote is another one of my favorites, offering a stylish design that can work just as well on the court as it can off.
The outside of the bag is minimalistic, with a single front zipper pocket for stashing a few daily essentials or accessories. You’ll also find two smaller open slip pockets on the sides of the bag, which are just large enough to hold a can of tennis balls but won’t carry a larger water bottle.
Inside, there’s a dedicated racquet compartment with a zipper to store two tennis racquets and plenty of extra space to keep all your gear for a day at the courts. The bag also offers great internal organizational storage with three pockets – one zipper and two open slip pockets.
Two simple medium-length straps work well for holding the bag at your side or over your shoulder for carrying the tote.
