"Supple and well made"
Gave this as a Christmas Gift but I had to return the first bag because of an issue with the strap. Once I mailed the first one back I quickly received a replacement which is well made. Im hoping my husband will start using it soon, but I think he was a little disappointed when he received the first item.

"Nice bag"
Lovely bag, the laptop area is a few cm to small for a 15 inch laptop but it will just fit if put in a different area. When unpacking the lovely leather smell was a sign of quality, the stitches confirmed it. Great value for the price.
