I bought this style of purse over 5 years ago in its native italy, and although i don't carry it everyday it is still one of my favorite purses! Many people mistake it for a LV, and are always surprised when i tell them it's not. i am not a fashion maven by a long shot, but i do appreciate a sophisticated, yet functional purse. what attracted me to this purse was its understated, classic styling and low-key branding. it is also unique. i see those obnoxious coach purses, with their giant C's, all over the place, but i have yet to come across someone sporting a rioni ;) as one reviewer stated, that light leather will indeed deepen over time. mine is now a rich, caramel brown. every stitch is still in place. it is indeed roomy in the main compartment; it holds it shape well without being too boxy and stiff. this sturdy bag has been with me on at least four big trips, one trans-atlantic voyage, and numerous weekend jaunts. it goes with everything and goes everywhere! even though i did not purchase it specifically from this site, i saw it and had to stop by and leave my thoughts! when was the last time you loved a purse that much, lol?
...I would have purchased two or more. What a pleasant surprise to unwrap this handbag and find it far surpassed my expections. The leather quality equals LV, Gucci and Coach plus it's about a fifth of the price of any of those high end Speedy or Boston style bags. My LV Speedy 30 does not have the suede-lined side pockets, outside rear pocket, cell phone and slider pocket. the Rioni Small Boston has, plus my more expensive bags of the same style do not have the little feet I've come to want on all my bags.The size is perfect for those who like a medium-sized bag. Don't let the listing "Small Boston Bag" fool you, it holds everything I carry with me on a daily basis and there is room to spare. Love the quality, finish and style. Thank you Rioni!
I have been lusting after an LV Speedy for a while. In case you are wondering, this bag is sort of in between a 25 and 30. I actually find the "small" bag to be able to hold the perfect amount of items. It is a very nice structured bag and although the RR logo is on it, it is not as obvious as some logos. It is very simple. The pockets on the outside of the bag are actually very usable and can fit my iPhone. I have this bag and the med size tote and get compliments on it when I walk into other purse boutiques. The leather is lovely and canvas is pretty thick. It is light to carry. It comes with a shoulder strap and dust bag, which IMO I wish all dust bags were like this. It is like an actual re-usable bag. I have never used the strap yet as I prefer to hold this shape in my hand, but the strap hangs out inside the bag. Overall the quality is most definately comparable to other higher end designer bags. You will be please with the quality of this bag. The only thing I do not care for is that Overstock sends you the bag in a plastic bag instead of in a box. Although, to be fair, the 1st one I received was damaged and I sent it back and they did send out another one right away and this one did come to me in a box. The quality is also 1st and not made for factory. Rioni is a very understated designer brand. They do not always have all the colors of this bag that I am looking for, but Overstock by far does have the best price around on these bags. :-)
I bought this purse after reading another review online, watching a you tube video that a customer did of the video, and after researching Rioni because I hadn't heard of them. This bag is awesome. It is the small Rioni bag, but it really has tons of space. I usually carry very large purses, and everything I have fit in this purse perfectly. The bag keeps its shape even when you don't stuff it. It is high quality leather, durable, and also comes with a strap to attach and carry it on your shoulder. Most designer bags are cute and durable, but don't have the pockets that we need for our cell, keys, business cards, change, etc. This bag is functional and sassy. It also has two magnetic pockets on the side. I like the bag so much that I will probably buy another Rioni purse next.
I ordered this purse for myself for my birthday. I haven't had people comment but they do stare. My 21 year old who owns lots of name brand purses - coach, jessica simpson, betsy johnson, lv, is quite jealous. It was really a steal for the price. The lining in the main body is nice and soft. In the pockets is a sueded lining. The brass fittings are quality. The leather is really starting to soften up and is really pretty. The picture is a little light when it comes to the leather trim, but the body of the purse is right on. It has an outer zipper pocket and and inner zipper pocket that are perfect in size. The two end pockets are for something really small like a key or credit card. It also comes with a shoulder strap which is a good length for me - I am 5'6''. I love this purse!! I can't wait to purchase another. It isn't a big purse, but I would definitely say it is a medium purse. I have a very large wallet, checkbook, several glasses, and an assortment of little junk I carry and still can throw a water bottle in there.
I bought this purse as a birthday gift for my self. I ordered the purse and when it arrived it was cute but small...But I kept saying to myself I can make it work. Well little that I knew the next day I was reviewing and email and it said " Small signiture bag", so that explains why my bag is a small purse. I called customer service and told her that I needed to send the purse back and get the large since I ordred the wrong bag. She said sure no problem, and the larger bag was only a 10.00 difference. so I ordered the large bag when it came in 5-6 days later...I was dancing b/c the bag was large and I could place all my things in it.. The 1st day a lady was passing by with her shopping cart and stopped me as I was paying for my groceries and asked where did I get my bag from and that she just don't see great purses that look like mine at the stores. So needless to say I'm loving my bag. I love the side pockets to put my cell phone in for easy access. Fabulous bag!! Will buy again
If you are looking at an LV Speedy, save your money and buy this bag instead. Not only is it as nice as the LV version, but better thought out. They had better up their game if they hope to keep Rioni from taking over the market! I speak from experience as I own an LV Speedy 25, but never liked it because of the brass zipper in it, before long it smells like dirty brass and your hands do too. The Rioni bag has so many nice extra pockets, the end pockets are a nice size for a small cell phone, keys, iPod--the rear zipper pocket is perfect for sunglasses and the three pockets inside for glasses, pens, whatever! While this is a small bag, you can get quite a bit in it, I have a makeup bag, glasses, two pens, wallet, notepad and checkbook in the main compartment and it doesn't seem crowded at all. The construction is excellent, the way the top zipper extends down the side a little makes it super easy to see inside the bag without a struggle. The base is more solid than an LV which to me is a plus, the bag retains it's classy shape instead of looking like a sack and the brass feet keep it from getting beat up. The long strap included is a nice bonus, to buy just a strap from LV like this would cost as much as the Rioni bag did with it included! If you have been debating about getting this bag (like I did), just do it, you won't be sorry! I plan on buying more bags from the Rioni line in the future. My only disappointment was in the way it was shipped--seriously Overstock, you can't put this in a box instead of a plastic bag? My shipping bag actually had a hole in it by the time it got here, luckily it was where the protective cardboard inside was over the bag and it wasn't damaged.
First the quality is above what I expected, it looks quality! The size is perfect not "small" as indicated, I have put a lot in it and have room for more. The first time I carried the bag I got several compliments on it. I would recomment this bag to everyone!
The overall experience with dealing with Overstock.com deserves a five star. Thank you for the wonderful service we received from all of your staff.
Just got my Rioni Signature Small Boston Bag and I just love it. I switched all my things out of the currant Coach bag I was using and there is plenty of space. The inside pockets held everything I had in the old bag. The handles are a good buttery color and It looks great. I can tell I am really going to enjoy carrying this bag. It opens very nicely so that you can see all the items inside very easily. Plenty of room for all I need to carry! Buy it! You won't be sorry.
