Leather Backpack messenger bag

This bag is making it's inaugural trip with me as I type, and I'm very pleased so far.I was looking for something good looking, reasonably sized for storage under the plane seat in front of me, and with lots of storage options.This is exactly what I was after. It's definitely not big enough to be your ONLY bag in a trip longer than a day or two, but as a supplemental bag it's perfect. All my stuff for on the plane in there, plus assorted stuff for later on the trip, all tucked away in different pockets and compartments.It's comfortable to wear, seems durable, and looks good. I would *maybe* add one more pocket on the back side (up against your back), but there is one there already, which is already one more than any of my other backpacks. And maybe a couple loops for clipping stuff to. But these are minor nitpicks.I plan to empty it and carry it around the various towns we're visiting to carry day to day essentials (sunscreen, water bottle, etc) and to add souvenirs.It's not super quick to open, which works to my advantage here (harder to open sneakily means harder to pickpocket from) but easy enough that you won't be frazzled trying to get to your stuff.All in all, this is exactly what I was looking for.

Everyday use bag for work holds so much

Very sturdy

I usually don't write reviews, but I know how picky I get when buying something and I appreciated the reviews for this bag.First of all, I looked at many similar bags on Amazon and finally decided to go with this one, mostly because it was the cheapest, it looked good, and the reviews were great (for the most part).I am very glad I decided to go with this bag. The quality is very durable, it is well made and looks like it should last a long time with proper care. It was the cheapest of all the bags I considered buying, but it does not feel like a cheap bag at all.My only complaint is that it is on the smaller side, it would be nice if it were a little bigger and it would be nice if a water bottle could fit into one of the side pouches.That being said, I am still able to fit quite a lot of things inside of it. It is big enough to pack a change of clothes for a weekend trip with some room left over for a book or computer. I enjoy the many pockets this bag has. There are 4 pockets on the exterior of the bag, all zippers. The main compartment of the bag is secured with real buttons, not those magnetic ones. Those seem to be well made and secure the bag well. Inside the bag there are 2 little pouches that also closes with a zipper, a pocket that is secured with velcro, and two smaller pouches that do not close. There is also a lightly padded computer pocket on the back that fits my 15" computer as long as I don't over pack the rest of the bag.The straps seem like the hold the weight of the bag well and all the parts are metal or leather. The bag itself is high quality canvas. Although its not waterproof, it does well in light rain.I got this bag for day trips or to use as a carry on while traveling. I look forward to using this bag.Once I've had a chance to use it for a few months, I'll post an update on how the bag handles wear and tear while traveling.

An excellent everyday carry kind of backpack. When you put this bad boy on it just feels right. There are some convenient pockets that can hold small trinkets and survival items, theres even a small and thin pocket on the back of the backpack to store a knife or money(not recommended but if your entire bag is stolen than it wouldnt matter either way). The fake leather straps that you see don't feel too sturdy but I believe with careful handling it should last a while before replacement. Its one of the backpacks where you take your time to put items in and arrange your inventory and casually fastened the straps. It is very spacious the shoulder straps are fairly comfortable and highly adjustable. This would be a great backpack for urban adventuring, especially if you are going to Comic Con for example. It is stylish, has plenty of storage space for goods, and is very comfortable to do some running around in. As far as outdoors hiking and camping goes, you can most definitely take this out for a few trips but like I mentioned before, handling this in a casual environment is recommended to prolong the life of your backpack.

Had to have this again! Last one lasted 6.5 years...of course it broke a main zipper and a snap...but 6.5 years!!! Great product, best back ive ever owened!

My first impression from the moment I opened the package was how awesome this vintage backpack looked. It is made of brown canvas with orange stitching and genuine leather zipper grips and buttons. It has adjustable straps and a drawstring closing mechanism at the top of the bag. When I ordered this product, I thought that it might be too small and that it wouldn't fit all of my stuff but as I put all of my school supplies into it I realized just how big this bag was. It has an assortment of different pockets on the inside as well as the outside that fit all of my supplies comfortably. I have used this backpack 5 days a week for almost 4 months and nothing is showing any sign of potential rips or tears. This backpack is worth every penny spent. I highly reccomend this bag if you are looking for a comfortable, stylish, durable bag for day to day use!
