Abbyson Italian Leather Tote Bag

This bag has the appearance of patent leather... not really what I wanted.

I was looking forward to receiving this tote based on other reviews. I was disappointed when it arrived. The color is definitely not that classy looking espresso brown that Italians love to possess. It's lighter than that and very shiny. I agree the leather is soft and the straps are definitely wide and comfortable plus the outside zipper is great for security. I think this would make a great shopping or laptop tote but it's just not as classy or hip looking as I'd hoped. I'll be returning this one.

• Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Not really
• How is the quality of the product? Ok
• Did the product fit true to size? Yes

I was looking for a tote that I could while traveling and take to meetings but still double as a stylish handbag. There were several choices but after all the comparisons, this bag seemed to meet my needs. The shipping was fast and the bag is a delight! The leather looks and feels good with a rich warm tone. There are several inside pockets - finally a phone pocket that is wide enough to easily slip a phone in & out! The zippered top and 2 inside and 1 outside zippered pockets offer lots of organization and extra security. The outside front pockets that snap are deep enough for a water bottle and easy access for sun and reading glasses. And best of all, it really is deep & wide enough for a tablet and a few files for those meetings! Stylish, secure and multipurpose... what more could you want? especially at this price point!

the leather is nice, the color kind of a deep red, but most of all I love all the so many pockets, I think it will be very useful for carring my laptop.
