18 inch Leather Messenger Bag

I am a very picky gift giver which is silly because I am not the one using the item. But I want the person I am giving the gift to to be as happy as possible. I must have searched through at least 50 leather laptop bags, and I always came back to this one and I am beyond happy that I did. I gave this to my boyfriend for Valentines Day as he has just got a big promotion at work and I wanted him to have something stylish and sleek yet still manly to fit his new position and he loves leather. This bag was perfect! The craftsmanship is awesome, it smells of quality leather, and feels amazingly smooth. It is not overwhelming with pockets, but is still spacious enough to hold his laptop, charger, notebooks, phone, pens, and other miscellaneous items comfortably without being bulky or looking misshapen. The buckles are sturdy and function easily, even one handed. The strap is strong and the connectors are strong as well. Its been two months and the leather has begun to relax and the bag still looks as amazing as the day he opened it. He has gotten so many compliments on how expensive and good it looks. I honestly don't think he will have to replace this bag for many many years to come, the quality of it is just that good! Added bonus that I won great girlfriend brownie points for giving it to him 😂🤣. If you were on the fence between this laptop bag and another one, do yourself a solid AND GET THIS ONE! You won't be disappointed, I promise.

I am a musician and perform with several different groups on different instruments. I needed something simple but professional to carry my sheet music and items that I would use in various rehearsals so I didn't need to transfer stuff back and forth between music cases (such as my favorite tune, music dictionary, pencils, reed tools, metronome, etc.). I like that this bag has plenty of space for my irregular scores and can hold a lot of music. I can easily keep everything beside me in rehearsals and most of the time I am able to carry my water bottle in the 18 inch pouch because often I have extra space. It has a very rustic, professional look that makes it welcome in rehearsals, pit orchestras as well as the big stages. I did lightly treat the bag with a leather waterproofer agent which darkened the color slightly but it seems to be getting softer and lighter as I use it. The stitching, fabrics used on the interior and durable but soft leather seems to be high quality and something I am looking forward to using for many years to come. I would also like to thank Komal Chaudhari for sending such a wonderful service letter with care instructions on the back, which is what prompted me to write this review. Take care, - SA

To say it right off the bat: this bag is nearly perfect, and purchasing it was great decision. Instead of reviewing it the day I received it, which wouldn’t add much beyond the product description, I decided to wait. Now, after nearly three years of consistent use, I feel confident sharing just how great this bag truly is. This bag has stood up to everything Midwest weather can throw at it—temperatures over 100°F, freezing -20°F cold, blizzards, torrential rain, and scorching sun. It’s been tossed into the back of trucks, taken as a carry-on for flights, and endured countless spills of water, coffee, and even beer. Each time, I just wiped it clean, and it looked good as new. I’ve also overstuffed it more times than I can count, and it’s been yanked and pulled by its straps and handles. Despite all that, the bag still looks and functions as perfect as the day I received it. -No wear on the edges. -The stitching is flawless. -All the hardware has held up perfectly. I started this review by calling the bag “nearly perfect” because I assumed I’d eventually find some flaw. But honestly, after all this time, I can’t think of a single issue. Knowing what I know now, I’d gladly pay four times the price for this bag because it’s clear I’ll never need to buy another one. The value here is incredible. Sure, it costs more than cheaper alternatives, but when I consider how long this bag will last, it’s clear I’ll save money in the long run. Before, I used to replace my bags every two or three years. With this one? That’s a thing of the past. If you’re seriously considering buying this bag and reading reviews to make up your mind, let me save you the trouble: just buy it. You won’t regret it.

What did I dislike? ... Nothing. The 18" size is perfect to store everything I take to the office: laptop, cables, e-Ink note-taking tablet, lunch box, 600ml water bottle, glasses case, wallet, and other bits and bobs. And there is still room to spare! The bag is made from high quality (thick) leather, and the stiching and lining are good. I also like the metal zip on the back pocket - much better than the cheap nylon zips on some other brands. The clasps and buckles are high quality and pretty heavy. They certainly 'feel' right. The included adjustable leather strap is also plenty long, allowing one to carry it on the shoulder or across the body - and still allowing easy comfortable access. The look of the bag is as advertised - dark brown distressed leather. It comes totally enclosed in a cream-coloured linen drawstring bag which protected the bag itself during shipping. Although some people may not like it, there is a new leather smell to the item. I like it, and it isn't overwhelming in my opinion. I expect the aroma will disappear with use over the coming days. All-in-all, this is a high quality product that I expect will last a long time - even with moderate to rough daily use. I'm looking forward to using this messenger bag daily as I commute to and fro from my office. I recommend this product as good value for money, as similar items in luggage goods shops cost three times the price at half the quality.

Pour ce prix je m attendais a un truc bas de gamme et moche d autant plus que les photos de presentation ne donnent pas trop envie mais il me fallait un cartable de plus de 43 cm pour mon pc portable et cette taille ne courre pas les rues. J ai ete bluffė par la qualite de l objet,le cuir est superbe,souple, velouté, la patine est tres discrète (sur les photo on a l impression d une ruine trouvée dans une poubelle) la fabrication est minutieuse, les ferrures sont haut de gamme (bronze/laiton massif) les fermetures sont les plus belles que j ai vu. Il y a un compartiment rembourré pour le PC Si l on pouvait mettre 20 etoiles je les mettrais N.b la semaine derniere j ai achete un sac de voyage en buffle du meme style chez rustic town, j ai du le maquiller au cirage pour atténuer son look pouilleux. Je regrette de n avoir pas acheter ce sac chez ce fabriquant. SANS HESITATION JE CONSEILLE CE FABRIQUANT pour la moitie du prix du meme objet en cuir de chevre (le cuir qui pue) vous avez un cuir magnifique

Die Fünf-Sterne Bewertungen sind meiner Meinung nach gerechtfertigt. Mein Exemplar wurde gut gepolstert geliefert und ist sehr gut verarbeitet. Sie kommt mit meinem 17,3 (Gaming-)Notebook, dem dazu gehörenden Netzteil und diversen Schreibutensilien bestens zurecht. Die Farbe meiner Tasche ist mit dem dritten Bild von unten zu vergleichen, was auch meine Hoffnung war da ich kein Freund dieses rot-braunen Tons bin der auf den anderen Bildern zu finden ist. Auch der Tragegurt ist sehr angenehm denn besonders die verschiebbare Verbreiterung macht das Tragen einer vollen Tasche verhältnismäßig angenehm. Ich würde diesen Artikel auf jeden Fall wieder kaufen! Pro: - Gute Verarbeitung! - Viel Platz und gute Aufteilung der Staufächer - Schöne Lederoberfläche, ein echter Hingucker! Contra: - Riecht die ersten 1 bis 2 Tage etwas, jedoch nicht penetrant und der Geruch verflüchtigt sich danach auch schnell, dies ist noch nicht einmal den Abzug eines Sternes wert!

Torba prezentuje się naprawdę świetnie. Jest duża, bardziej pod laptopa 17 - 19 cali. Wygląda bardzo solidnie, ma 3 duże przegrody oraz 2 mniejsze. I tu jedyna uwaga: brak wewnątrz jakieś małej, zamykanej, najlepiej na zamek, przegródki np. na pendrive. Jest wprawdzie kieszeń na zamek z tyłu torby, ale brak mi jakiejś małej, zamykanej wewnątrz. Poza tym zero zastrzeżeń. Polecam.

My son has been looking for a leather messenger bag for several years. Many of the bags we've looked at have been a thin 'veneer' of leather applied to another material so you know that, with very little wear and tear, the bag will be tatty and worn out in a very short time. These bags can be spotted by the binding on the edges. Not so with this bag. You can see the thickness of the leather at the edges (no binding to hide thin veneers here) in the photographs. Then, when you actually get the bag, you can feel the quality from the leather to the stitching, to the straps, all the materials used, it's all very strong and reassuring. It looks good, it feels strong and sturdy. Lots of handy pockets inside, too. I'm fully confident that this will withstand everyday use, full of heavy laptop, books etc. The price was excellent for the quality. A similar bag on the high street would cost at least £200 more.
