How and where are Maptote products made?
We personally source our fabric.  All our totes are made with US cotton. The fabric is cut, sewn and printed here in Brooklyn, NY.  We love visiting our factories so that we can watch our products being made and know exactly who is making them.  We?re very hands on with the entire process even though it makes us crazy sometimes.  It gives us a real connection to our products.

What products do you offer, how do you decide what location to do next & what is the design process like? 
We started with a simple cotton tote bag - our grocery tote - and that grew to various styles of tote bags.  We continued expanding to wine totes, zip pouches, note cards, posters and baby one-pieces.   

At first we chose cities and locations we had lived in, loved or visited. Now we get commissioned to do new locations. Once we decide on a new place, we find insider information through research and talking to locals. We try to have fun with the design.  It?s more about the feel of the city and a local?s perspective, rather than being a completely accurate, technical map. And its for locals and visitors alike.  For instance, we always feel like we?ve done our job when a Brooklynite sports one of our Brooklyn products.
