I initially was worried about buying something online without being able to see it, but thought I could always return it. I looked at alot of local stores and just couldn't find something small like this... usually just the much larger traditional messenger bags. I was very happy when I received it. I purchased the black leather. The leather is very nice quality, the craftsmanship is great.. stitching is very good and made of all around quality materials...nothing cheap looking about it... (I was scared of that cheap vinyl look) I also was worried it might be a bit too girly, but it isn't. The thick, durable shoulder strap is comfortable and adjustable and hangs just right for over the should wear. The clasp is easy to open for easy access, no silly straps or latches to fumble with. It has a very slim profile if you aren't carrying alot, but expands to 5 or so inches deep if you need to carry alot. Multiple pockets are great for seperating items and it has a convenient cell phone pocket. The zipper pocket on the backside is great for stuff I need to have with me, like my checkbook, but don't really use that often. There are a few slots in the front pocket for credit cards and I've completely stopped using my wallet (though there is limited room for about 4 cards.. perfect for me but maybe not for everyone... but you can always throw you wallet right inside the bag anyways for those 'extra' cards you need. I bought this originally because I was going on vacation and knew I'd have to lug around a camera, but didn't really want to carry a camera bag... the digicam fit right in the pocket along with water bottles and alot of small things I bought as souvineers. I love it. Overall, I think it's a great value for the money especially when compared to much more expensive 'designer brand' bags.
I personally LOVE this bag. I know others have complained about the thick strap, but for me, it is absolutely magnificent. The thick strap keeps the bag on my shoulder when I wear it over only one shoulder. Most purses I've had constantly slip off my shoulder, driving me crazy! Most of the time I sling it around in front and it is extremely comfortable in this position. The expandability allows me to carry only a few things, or stuff my gloves and earmuffs in the purse during winter shopping.
Within the first month of owning/using this bag the side stitching ripped apart and the back of the bag ripped as well. The clasp on the front is a little difficult to get closed as well...you have to push down the flap at the precise angle to get the turn style to close. I love the design of the bag it just needs to be a little revamped and more durable.
Order this for my Brother who wants a messenger bag and do not look like a purse. The smell of the leather is distinct. My brother loves it and so do I that I bought one for myself....I will recommend this to anyone who wants a manly 'purse'..It's European!!!

I bought this as a Christmas present for my husband. We have been searching for just the right bag, not wanting one too large or too small. Even though it arrived day after Christmas, I was very pleased and happy to wrap it for him. My only disappointment was that I would have preferred the strap to have also been leather. He also was pleased with it and now when we tour different places, he will have a bag where he can keep all his necessities, and keep his pockets free.
This is a nice looking purse, made of good leather, with lots of space.
A very durable bag of high quality; thick, comfortable strap. Good size.

I love the size for an everyday bag...I bought the light brown one to match my boots but it's a little orangey to me. It has gold buckles and clasp, wish they were silver. It does hold more than you think it can. It has a thick shoulder strap that is not leather (cloth material but very durable). If the black purse had silver accents, I would buy that one too!

I bought two brown ones. I liked these fine but they were too small for the bigger laptop. I might be wrong but they seemed really small to me. They were built really well though. My young son wanted to keep them to use as a woods bag. Hillbillies.

I bought the bag thru Eziba and am very happy with it. It's a little heavier than I thought it would be for such a small bag but, the leather is soft and i love the canvas strap, both the look and the fact that it is nice and thick. Great bag for the money!

The size of this is good. The strap is also nice and sturdy. The smooth finish combined with the light color give the bag a rather, well, it looks like vinyl. The clasp is a bit on the cheap side and looks like it can't be replaced if broken. Also, the bag came with a nasty mildewy smell that took three days of airing to get rid of.
