About Le Tote

Le Tote was an online women's clothing rental business based in San Francisco, California, founded in 2012 by Brett Northart and Rakesh Tondon.

The company operated on a subscription box model, offering members a personalized selection of everyday apparel and accessories. Le Tote distinguished itself by focusing on everyday wear rather than special occasions, providing a flexible service where members could wear items for as long as they liked and return them for new selections. The subscription service included a variety of product categories such as tops, bottoms, dresses, and accessories from hundreds of well-known brands like Calvin Klein, Nike, and Free People. Le Tote utilized a data-driven personalization engine to curate boxes tailored to individual preferences, serving customers across 48 U.S. states. The company experienced significant growth prior to its decline, reporting over 300% year-over-year growth for two consecutive years.
