This is a great looking bag, at a good price, that will fit in all airline overhead bins, even the narrowest of only 10 in. It is made from Koskin which is a synthetic soft, flexible leather of the type used in many purses and other products. The bag has one large compartment and one large side pocket. The extendable, attached, handle used to wheel the bag is concealed in its own zippered compartment. This product has one flaw that I found bothersome but I was able to find a simple remedy.The flaw is that when the handle is in the extended position the bag will not stand up by itself, even though it has two wheels and two non rotating plastic skids, the base holding the wheels and skids is flexible enough that the bag will fall over regardless of whether it is full or empty. I believe that the base holding the wheels and skids is purposely made flexible so that the 12 in. high bag can be squeezed into 10 in. high overhead compartments. If the side holding the wheels was rigidly connected to the bottom of the bag this would not be possible. This flaw is inconvenient and annoying at ticket counters etc.My solution was to take a rigid shelf bracket, short side of 5 1/2 in. and long side 10 in. and attach it to the track in the base of the bag. There is already a screw that can be used at the end near the wheels and at the other end I used some vinyl tape to attach the bracket to the metal track. The whole simple modification is concealed by the inner zippered lining already in the bag.Voila! The bag now stands up by itself both when empty and full. Because my rigid shelf bracket is only 5 1/2 in tall the bag leans a little when it is standing up but the 12 in. high bag can still be squeezed into a 10 in. high compartment when necessary.
I first bought this for my brother as a gift. He came to visit, using this bag, and he loved it. I liked it so much when I saw it in person that I bought one for myself.
This bag was beautiful out of the box but has a flaw in style. When packed, the bag will not stand on it's wheeled side. When using the handle, and rolling it along behind you, it is perfect. But when you try to set it up on the wheels, it tips over, collapsing on the floor. It is great as a tote but defeats the purpose of the wheels and handle.

Ordered the bag with reasonable expectation, but was greatly disappointed. looks nothing like the quality leather bag in the picture. It's just a piece a cheap and nasty merchandise, which I promptly put in the bin.
- How accurate was the sizing? Much too big than described.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Poor quality material and workmanship.
- Was the product free of any manufacturer defects? Faul;ty stiching on outer pocket, creating unsightly gathering at seam.
I love this bag. It's been around the world (literally), as well as on many shorter trips, and it has held up very well. You can pack it with a lot of clothing and still get it into the regular overhead compartments. It cleans up very well with a damp towel, and a little Armor All keeps it looking like brand new. The handle is very useful, as the bag can get heavy when you fill it up. I'd recommend this bag to my friends who travel a lot and need a good bag.

This bag was purcheased to replace a big brand Sampsonite bag that just did not endure regular travel. To date this bag, made from solid, thick leather is a great item, very well made.
- How accurate was the sizing? Correct in all descriptions
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Very well constructed

The bag will be perfect for 3-4 day trips. The zippers are sturdy and is the strap. Looking forward to trying it out soon!

Koskin leather appears the same as real leather except under a very nit-picky inspection. Good sturdy zippers, handles, and shoulder strap. Pull handle and wheels worked well. Wheels are small so I would be cautious pulling a heavily loaded bag over a rough surface for fear that a part of the bag would drag and scuff or tear.
- How accurate was the sizing? Bag is sized as stated
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Good quality.

The product is exactly what the description stated. I purchased for my son and will consider getting one for myself. NO it is not leather. It is carry on size as long as you don't stuff it. Bag is durable for the abuse a teenager will give. The handle is not an issue. Not like American Tourister, but also not the price of the brand luggage. Satisfied and exactly what I thought it would be ... maybe a little better!

Bought this as a gift for a son with expensive tastes! He loves the bag, it's a great size for a weekend trip, or a 3 or 4 day business trip. The suit (garmet) bag we bought as a companion to the duffle, is a bit slim - but my son usually carries a full suit and leather jacket in the garmet bag and he's 6"4" tall! He would never believe the great price for these leather bags if I told him! Very happy with my purchase, and my son is happy with his gift!

I'm very pleased with this carry on. Roomy. The rolling handle pulls out in two stages and you need to give it a good tug to get the second extension to come out of it's socket. I don't believe it's natural leather but looks and feels like real leather. I'm very happy

It is heavier than other bags because it is a very good quality leather. The handle extends to a good length .

Decent leather. Very handsome. Roomy. Pull out handle could be a little more sturdy - I am afraid of it breaking everytime I use it, but so far so good. It worked perfectly for a weekend trip. I am glad I bought it.
I bouht this to haul dog supplies around when we travel with our dogs to agility trials and flyball tournaments. It is larger than I expected and should hold all their food, treats and supplies. Haven't used it yet but will be loading it up next weekend! It will also be nice for traveling to visit family. It looks like a very well made bag.
The duffel is good quality. It rolls well and leather is strong. However, it is bigger than I thought and does not fit well under the seat in an airplane.
I ordered four of the Koskin Leather 20-inch Rolling Duffel Bags as Christmas gifts for the guys in the family. They are well made and much roomier than I expected. I think they will be perfect for a trip up to three or four days the way my guys travel. The rolling portion is nice and will come in handy at airports and there are plenty of straps to use if you prefer to carry the bags on your shoulder. The handle for the roller pushes neatly inside and out of the way.
The bag would have been great if it just had some pockets. I have underware with more pockets.What a shame..
I've used it once so far on a flight and it has served me well. Construction seems very sturdy. It doesn't seem like real leather, but that doesn't bother me. It is a little on the heavy side for comparative bags, but perhaps that's because its well made and durable. I'm more than happy to buy another one, and just might.
I didn't know what to expect. I have never been so pleased with a purchase. This bag is truly made very well. Looks so nice and expensive and I think will serve its purpose. It's the perfect size for a carry on and smells good like leather. Very nice bag.
