cuero Leather Messenger Bag for Men, 18 Inch Laptop Crossbody, Handmade Leather Shoulder Satchel Bag for Men, Full Grain Business Briefcase for Office/Work/Travel - Vintage Brown

Where to begin. This is the most durable bag I've ever had and it has so much room/organization. I can easily fit 3 notebooks (5 subject), and two water bottles in the large middle pocket, with enough room in the other pockets for anything else I could hope to store. In addition to the main large pocket there is a pocket behind that for a laptop, with 2 smaller pockets sewn on to the front of it (that wasn't even mentioned in the product description). In front of the largest pocket there is a slightly smaller pocket with enough room for a small umbrella and a bit extra. It has 4 little slots for pens (a bit too wide for one pen but can easily hold 2 pens) and a zipper with yet another compartment for storage. On the front of the bag there are 2 nice sized pockets of the same size. Each has about enough room to fit a medium sized stapler and a recorder. Also on the front of the bag is yet another zippered compartment. On the sides of the bag there are some small, taller pockets great for lesser items you might not want to clutter the larger compartments with like a phone charger or pencil sharpeners. On the back of the bag is yet another zippered compartment perfect for storing packs of scantrons. Ultimately it has immense organization potential with so many pockets and compartments everywhere, it has so much room (the main reason I got the bag to begin with), and is super durable. The strap is extremely durable; the clamps on it in particular are the best. After almost 2 months of having the bag it shows no signs of wear and I carry a lot of stuff in this bag. And other bags of this quality were all at least $230, and typically much smaller. Plus, it really does look quite nice- I've gotten several compliments on it. For me the leather smell faded after about 2 days and went away completely within a week. I don't know if this is goat leather or cow hide but I don't really care or see why it would matter. It's a high quality bag for moderate quality price; the perfect gift for a grad student that has too much to carry and needs something that will do that and last.

Great bag, especially for the price! Great value, and did not look quite as weathered as pictures but great quality leather that will certainly age very well and get better with age. Only thing I would change is to have some holes to shorten where the bag hangs but not bad at all. I have paid 2x more for bags that were not as nice or as good of quality. This bag is a no brainer. I travel with 2 laptops, one is a 16" and one is a 18". I fit these both plus a very thick folder for notes (probably 3-4" thick) and still plenty of room for other items such as chargers, pens, etc.... I would be shocked if you find another bag as good as this one in this price range for sure!

I am really impressed with the quality and look of this messenger bag! It's a really nice deep brown color, and the leather is nice and soft. There are plenty of pockets, and the hardware is all metal. The strap is nice and wide, and is fully adjustable, so you can wear it cross body also. There is plenty of room for your laptop, and or other electronic devices, cables, power supply, and chargers. I feel this will hold my items safely and securely. I would definitely buy another one as a gift.

Great looking bag, and lots of compliments. It's made from real goat leather. Saw a few reviews knocking the smell, but it smells like leather..and I happen to like how real leather smells. It definitely reminds me of the pleasant fragrance of tobacco leaf or a good scotch. As soon as you get this bag, I definitely recommend stuffing kitchen towels in every pocket (to inflate the bag) and applying your favorite leather conditioner to it. I do worry a bit about some of the creases in the leather that bend often (i.e. the bottom corners of the bag and sides of the pockets), but the leather appears to be of pretty good quality and should be ok with proper care. There are some discolorations on the leather, but I like them because you know that you have real deal leather from an animal (in this case, goat hide)...not some synthetic manufactured material. The bag has plenty of storage space and pockets. The interior is made of a rugged and stiff green linen that will probably soften the more it is used. Now for the bad: there were probably 3-4 spots where some of the string used to bind the bag together were frayed. I did use scissors to trim them up a bit. While conditioning, definitely noticed a fair amount of residual glue/adhesive around the bag; I ended up peeling it off, so again, no biggie. The metal for the buckles and clips for the shoulder strap seem pretty "light", so I do worry about their longevity to holding up to daily abuse. Honestly, I think a little more effort on quality assurance or attention to detail could bring my review to 5 stars. The great thing about good leather though is that it holds up well if treated properly, so things like the metal fastenings and thread can probably be repaired later down the line...and this bag seems like it could last a few lifetimes. Lastly, I certainly did appreciate the "thank you" note and the hand made notebook from the seller. I would certainly buy this again and am grateful for this bag. The price point is outstanding, and I have definitely received a ton of compliments for how good this bag looks. One person commented that it looks like something Indiana Jones would tote around... I take it as praise. All in all, it's great to have the confidence of knowing something is built to last. A luxury item should be something that has the potential to be an antiquity due to it's superior material and craftsmanship. For the price, I think this bag certainly fits the bill.

Its exactly what I expected it to be. Its real leather, smells funny (in a good way), and seems to be well built so far. I'd prefer if the clasps were magnetic but its kinda old school. Fits all my stuff just fine, very satisfied for what it cost.

This bag is so great and my husband loves it. He gets so many compliments on it from coworkers. It has such a nice vintage look to it!! It does need to be broken in like any other leather bag. The size is decent enough for his laptop and notebooks. The compartments are great for travel size items. He's had it for at least a year or so and still is going strong.

For what it's worth, I DID read the reviews prior to purchasing this messenger bag, because for the quality (the stitching is BEAUTIFUL & the bag is REAL leather), & decent size that it is, on top of such an affordable price, I COULDN'T pass it up! Many of the reviews stated that the color WAS EXACTLY what was shown in the pictures, but some stated it WASN'T, so I took the gamble... & LOST. As you can see, it's NOWHERE NEAR the same color!!! This was a HUGE issue to me since my son wanted the darker one that's shown in the seller's listing!! Everyone keeps talking about the smell, but I LOVE the smell of leather & it's not at all overbearing by any means. Fortunately, we live in an area that is VAST when it comes to different hides & tanning them. Unfortunately, if it's even possible, I'm going to end up paying a MUCH HIGHER price to fix this faux pas made by the seller. Honestly, I don't even think it was a mistake. Something tells me it's an intentional marketing ploy. PLEASE be cautious when ordering from this seller, as you may end up like me (& several others). NEVER take a risk on something that's really important to someone. A sad lesson learned.

I actually purchased the Cuero Leather Messenger Bag for my husband a while ago, and I’m finally writing a review because he still uses it all the time and he keeps telling me how much he loves it. The leather has held up so well and has that nice, worn-in look now that only real full-grain leather gets. When it first arrived, there was a slight leather smell, but it went away pretty quickly and wasn’t a big deal. Since then, it’s been nothing but solid. The stitching and hardware are still in great shape, and the 18-inch size fits his laptop and all his work stuff perfectly without feeling too bulky. The shoulder strap has also been really comfortable for him, even on longer days. Overall, this bag has turned out to be well worth the cost. It’s practical, stylish, and clearly made to last. If you’re thinking about getting one, do it. I highly recommend it.

Cartera amplia, olor a cuero y muy bonita. Le gustó mucho

I am so happy with this messenger bag. I researched several before deciding on this one. Let me break it down for you: 1. The bag is huge! There are so many pockets and compartments, I'm not even sure I'll use them all. There are 2 zipper compartments on the outside of the bag (one at the front under the flap, and another at the back.) There are also many pockets inside and out - pockets on the front and sides - more small pockets inside, and three large inner compartments to hold my mobile phone, tablet, air pods, wallet, journal, etc. 2. The leather material is beautiful, thick, and sturdy. The colour is beautiful and warm, and makes the bag look vintage instead of brand new. 3. The large cross-body strap is also made from thick, sturdy leather. Once I adjusted it to the length I wanted, I slid the comfortable band over the buckle area to prevent it from digging into my shoulder. 4. The inner lining is a strong canvas material. This should hold up well under regular use. 5. The stitching throughout the bag is beautifully done. I read many reviews from people complaining about a smell. Hello! It's genuine leather, of course it's going to smell. That smell dissipated quickly, as is normal with a genuine leather product such as this. Another thing some reviewers complained about is the stiffness of the leather. This is also normal. Leather is stiff when you first get it. Through normal use, it softens and becomes supple. I'm guessing that the reviewers who complained about the smell and feel of the leather aren't used to genuine leather products. Reviewers also complained about an oily substance and plastic wrap. Both of these are found on the buckles and metal rings. This is also normal. Oil is used to condition the leather; it's natural for there to be a residue on the overall bag. Within minutes of using the bag, the oil, like the smell, dissipated. After continued use, it shouldn't take long for the smell and oil to completely disappear. As for the the plastic wrap - also normal. This is to protect the metal parts on the straps and pockets. The makers add it to protect the metal parts until the product reaches the consumer. With very little effort, the plastic easily came off. Overall, this is a beautiful, leather crafted, messenger bag. It holds my 15-inch laptop easily, as well as my full-size iPad, phone, thick writing journal, and more. With all the additional pockets and compartments inside and out, I know this bag will more than meet my needs.

Genial ! De las que usan en la universidad

Excelente!

Tbh I bought this before I read the reviews and then read the reviews and thought I’d thrown my cash away, BUT this is a fantastic bag. It doesn’t stink (it smells like leather) is hardy (at the moment I’m travelling for work most weeks and I’ve been using it pretty much non stop for two months and it’s held up well), it fits my laptop and cable well, as well as my compendium, a novel I’m reading and various other odds and ends with not trouble. It’s got plenty of compartments and pouch’s for you to lose stuff it. About a week ago I put some leather conditioner in it and it’s more soft and supple and beautiful than ever. Update- I’ve now had the bag for more than a year, I use it every weekday to take my laptop etc to and from the office or wherever else. I occasionally get a compliment from someone on how nice it looks. The more I use it the more dark & supple the leather becomes. Really glad I bought it. Have whacked some leather conditioner on it a couple of times in the year and a bit I’ve had it
