Sturdy, well-made backpack

Best Backpack I have ever owned. Ideal for work and a nice change of pace from a run-of-the-mill overnight bag on the weekend. Leather is nice and soft. Highly recommend this backpack.

great backpack for school

i'm surprised by how much i love this backpack. i kind of begrudgingly got it for grad school and am really impressed by the quality of leather and how cute and on-trend it looks! it easily transitions from work to class to drinks or dinner out. plus it's really light so you can pack a fair amount in (laptop, notebook, planner, wallet, charger) without feeling too weighed down. i highly recommend if you're looking for a cute backpack!

Perfect for class, but not for heavy textbooks

I started medical school this year and I wanted a more professional backpack to carry my laptop, papers, etc. This pack is perfect for that; functional but also looks great with the business attire that I'm required to wear. The color of this pack gets better with age. I wouldn't recommend carrying textbooks or anything super heavy in it though. Once I'm no longer in school I plan to use it for traveling.

worth it

to me this is a classic rucksack that i will wear until it doesn't want to be worn anymore. i can fit plenty of extra stuff in it - book, scarf, cardigan, this or that that i pick up at the grocery - or i can throw a changing pad, wipes, and a diaper in instead of lugging a diaper bag. it's perfect for all outfits - dresses, jeans, winter, summer - and perfect for travel. the leather has scratched some on the bottom already and i've only been using it a week - normally i wouldn't mind that but it almost looks like color is scratching off. because it's leather i can bring it in to my shoe guy if it ever needs repair though, and that will ensure it lasting forever. super cute, super useful, super classic, totally worth the money.

Perfect transition bag!

I received this from my husband after mentioning that I'd like to phase out using my son's traditional diaper bag. I wanted something stylish enough that I could use after my son outgrew it and something with good enough quality to last. I think this is the bag!

stylish with tons of room

This rucksack is perfect for travel and daily use. I was looking for a backpack with comfort, style, and function, and this has all three. The interior pockets are roomy but not too deep. The front flap pouch is great for easy access - think phone, boarding passes, headphones, small wallet. The leather is soft and a beautiful color. Even when full it is very comfortable to wear. SO glad I purchased this bag!

Awesome

I have been looking for a solid leather bag for ages now, and this bag is really a winner. I love it. I wear it with everything--whether I have my computer and food to carry or just my wallet and sweater to carry. It definitely is expensive, and that made me skeptical, but I have found it to be 100% worth it. It will definitely live a long like in my hands.
