Greater than one weekReceived the bag and was somewhat apprehensive about the potential for a bad smell, however, no bad smell. There is a natural odor that all natural leather products have as a result of the tanning process. The odor on this bag is slight and not offensive and I fully expect it to fade with time as all of my other leather products have. Bag is made of heavy natural leather and the stitching was strong and attractive. The hardware appeared to be solid and the quick releases on the main flap is an excellent feature adding to the usability of the bag. There is an outer zipper compartment on the bag of the bag and the main compartment is closed by a double zipper which appears to be solid and well made. I am very pleased with the bag. I will update this review as I conttnue to use the bag to more fully address the durability.

> 3 dayI like the quality of this bag very much, feels sturdy and strong. I have not actually used it yet, and only reason for my 4-stars is that I had expected a little darker shade of brown leather color. Still a very nice bag and looks like it will hold up for what I was wanting to find as a smaller option for my travel needs.

> 3 dayI do service work and carry small tools, small parts and paper work. The bag is handsome with strong hardware and plenty of pockets. I did change the shoulder strap for a heavier one--the buckle in the middle of the one supplied made it insecure with the 12 pounds i carry. I am very pleased with this bag.

> 3 dayI had been on a hunt for a briefcase capable of holding two 17in laptops, as well as notebooks, electronics, folders, books, etc. After a long, unsuccessful search, I saw this one and thought I would give it a try, and wow am I glad I did! At first I was a little turned off because it is listed as “men’s” and I am a female, but loved the style so went for it anyways. It is beautiful, genuine leather and has plenty of organization compartments. It fit two books, two notebooks, three folders, two 17in laptops, all of my stationary needs, and all necessary electronics (phone, headphones, chargers, etc.). While holding all of this, the bag is still not bulky or “too big”. It is perfect and very durable. The color is lighter than what is pictured, but not by much. I would describe it as slightly darker than a camel color. I am extremely satisfied with my purchase and if I am ever in the market for another leather item, this will be my first stop!!

> 3 dayThis case is even more than I expected. For what I paid for this bag I feel like I just got one of the best bargains of a life time. Its all there, the vintage look, the enormous space with more compartments than you might ever use. I will be using this primarily for my 5 pound 17 inch laptop. I know my laptop will be completly surronded by all leather and more than enough space for whatevere else I migt want to take along with it. I feel so good about the craftmanship and overall usability of this bag I am going to be a few more as Holiday Presents. You have to get this bag, you will be happy you did.

> 3 dayA month into classes and the bag is still as beautiful as the first day. its nice to carry around, it feels great and has much more room than you might think!!!! if i could give this bag 10 stars, i very much would!! there are only a few minor complaints, like a tiny bit of fraying around the back zipper area but really a little bit of care cleaned it up. these bags are hand made and as someone who sews, i know what its like to do zippers lol another thing, is that i get worried that the top handle might tear because of overweight... though that might just be me and my heavy books. i use the shoulder strap so its fine anyway. TLDR; GET! THIS! BAG! ive seen many others but this one is the best (at least for me!)

> 3 dayI absolutely love this. It’s everything and more than I expected. Very good craftsmanship and very well made. I love the thick leather and the leather smell isn’t strong at all. It holds my 17.3” Laptop perfectly and has lots of pockets and dividers right where they need to be. It even has a zipper pocket on the outside back of the satchel. It came with a personally signed letter. One of my favorite parts is that the leather was hand tanned in the sun using only vegetable oils. There are zero chemicals used. I’m so impressed. Get it now before the price goes up it’s so worth every Penny. It’s perfect. It’s now November and Here’s my update. I’ve had no problems at all. I’ve had a lot of compliments and the bag has remained supple and will stand on its own still. It’s perfect and the cost is better than most. I am still 110% satisfied.

> 3 dayUPDATE: It has now been 4 Years since I purchased this bag, and it has been easily one of the best purchases I have ever made. It is a workhorse, carrying all that I need with ease, and I highly recommend the 18 inch version for anyone that needs a messenger bag for documents up to 11x17 size. All in all, a superior product. I have now had this bag for three months, and I could not be happier. It looks very stylish, and is cavernous. All of the things that I wish to carry I can fit inside with ease. As an orchestral conductor, I regularly have to carry music scores of the 11x17 variety. I can fit them easily within this bag and zip the compartment shut. Like most leather, the bag is stiff when purchased but becomes worn over time. There is no odd smell; it smells like leather should smell. The one thing I will caution is carrying irregularly shaped objects (or too many things) in the front pouch. True to leather, the pocket can become formed around what you regularly carry there, and therefore may jut out when the top flap is closed. Overall, a fantastic purchase. If the opportunity arises to purchase again, I would do so in a heartbeat.
