21" Brown Leather Backpack Vintage Rucksack Laptop Bag Water Resistant Casual Daypack College Bookbag Comfortable Lightweight Travel Hiking/picnic For Men

Why did you choose this product over others?: I like leather bags and dislike zips, which I find break too easily and I can't repair. Straps and thongs may take a little longer to fasten and unfasten but are reliable and even if they do break or snap can be repaired more easily. I have had bad experiences of narrow straps digging in and wanted wider ones. As a supply teacher who usually uses public transport, I like a roomy bag that can take a set of waterproofs as well as the usual (lunch stuff, water bottle, etc.) and occasionally a change of footwear for yucky days or my hoodie or jacket for when it ends up being warmer than expected and I don't want to wear them, so I went for the largest size. Having used it every working day for a month, this bag has met all these needs. It seems well made and solid. It is definitely comfortable. It has easily taken not only my usual basic load but I've been able to stuff a bulky coat in it too! I can't speak to its waterproof quality as I've been fortunate enough to get a lift to and from work most days, avoiding the rain with which the west of Scotland is so familiar. Lastly in terms of my own priorities, several colleagues and even pupils in the school I'm working in just now have commented on what a lovely leather bag I have. This bag cost more than I would usually want to pay for one but I have been entirely happy with it so far and I do think that it will last long enough to have justified the cost. I thoroughly recommend it. I hope that helps someone in their selection, folks.

I both this backpack for a present and it is absolutely perfect for both traveling and school. I like the vintage style and the well-organized set of pockets. Big enough, with great vertical storage that allows you to pack-up a heavy load and to fit a laptop together with other belongings. The size is suitable for a carry-on bag for air travel and it's not much heavy, although looks like it is. The leather is thick, with a nice natural caramel-brown/cognac color. Looks durable, hope it is indeed and will stand the test of time. Excellent value for money. The only drawback is the packaging - the backpack was tightly compressed. I had to remove the packaging, to stuff the backpack tightly and leave it like this for a couple of days so the leather could stretch.

I was nervous about ordering this rucksack, brown leather for £50? Bound to be rubbish but I couldn't have been more wrong. The leather is thick, the item is well made and a good size. I am really pleased with this rucksack and will be using it when travelling. If I'm being picky, it could do with being slightly wider to balance it out, but once it's softened up and worn in it will be fine. Delivery was not great, the rucksack was folded into a clear plastic bag so you could see the item. That's fine, except when the delivery driver leaves it on your front door step because your out! Thankfully it wasn't nicked. In summary, great leather rucksack for the money.

I'm glad to be asked to review this rucksack again as I gave it four stars before , but it deserves the five . I thought the pockets a little small , but you can get a phone in one , your wallet in another . Not really deep enough for a water bottle or rolled up umbrella ,which would be have been nice . It's easily big enough for a weekend bag and I've used it supermarket shopping with a basket , plenty of room left over . It looks good , I've been asked where I bought it and the metal buckles are so much better than plastic clips .

I am very happy with my purchase! the leather is thick and feels strong, the coloraturas is beautiful, plenty of room to put everything I need for the day and still doesn't look bulky. it has plenty of pockets from outside. very fast delivery within less than 24 hours. I found the straps a bit far each other at the top and sometimes can be uncomfortable, maybe that's because they were made for men and I am a woman. they look good on women as well.. I also wish if it had partitions inside for my laptop. it only has one zipped pocket inside. overall it's a great buy!

I bought this a year ago and use it every day, still looks like new. Thick and nice leather.Sturdy and very spacious, I use it for commuting to work, and I carry a lot of stuff, including my laptop. Because it came folded in the pack, I kept it for few days with a blanket inside to straighten the folds. The only downsize is that is not having a divider inside, just a small pocket but still worth the money.

Really disappointed with this on arrival. The bag was mouldy inside and out. Apart from this the bag was made well and of a good quality. Obvious been stored incorrectly and the packaging indicated had already previously been returned

Love this backpack. The many pockets make it easy to organise all the stuff I always carry with me and keep everything handy without having to cram through the entire bag. It's pretty sturdy (even though the lining starts coming apart a little, but this might also be because I am putting my stuff to the torture test and use the backpack to transport almost everything). The leather is awesome, and even though I bought it rather for its sturdiness and practical reasons, I am also getting a lot of compliments on it. So ladies - throw away your handbags, for this one is a far better companion.

Bellissimo e fatto a mano, arrivato subito nei tempi previsti con un buon imballo. Molto soddisfatta, appena aperto ha un odore strano ma è dato dalla pelle che comunque scompare subito stando aperto. Ci ho fatto le vacanze ed è ottimo. Contentissima! E poi il venditore è veramente gentile e disponibile. Certificato fatto a mano!

Where do I begin? While trying to be more practical I decided spending hundreds of dollars for a designer backpack and giving my hard earned money to people who already have hundreds of millions of dollars in their checking accounts and more money than I will ever see is a thing of the past. Sorry Coach!!(Not Sorry) I read many of the reviews for this backpack and decided to give it a shot. I'm so glad I did!!! THIS BACKPACK IS AWESOME!!! The backpack arrived folded and cryo wrapped. Upon unwrapping the strong chemical smell took over my kitchen but I was expecting that from many of the reviews I read. The hardware was nicely wrapped in cellophane so there was no mold or corrison. First thing I did was stuff the bag with old clothes and rags to get the full shape of the bag. Then I wiped it down with a damp cloth and this reduced the smell consideribly. Next was to treat it with mineral oil and that's when this beauty came to life. The color became lusturous and shiny. It now looks like one of the best looking backpacks I've seen. The hardware is functional but subpar but I will soon upgrade with solid brass or pewter hardware. From the looks that should be an easy swap. I added a draw string pulley from an old designer bag and I think it adds a nice touch. The backpack is durable, well made and just the right size (16in). I like the placement of the additional pockets and find them to be very functional. I do wish it had a separate compartment for laptops, pens, pencils and card slots but for $50 bucks I'll deal. It really looks great should last for years with proper care. The vintage style is a major head turner. I can't wait to really put it to the weekend warrior test. For the price, durability, quality and style this is an awesome backpack. Get one. You'll be glad you did.

Der Rucksack ist groß, sehr gut verarbeitet, hat eine wunderschöne Farbe und ganz viel Platz für alles was man braucht. Genauso einen hab ich gesucht und bin total happy. Die Qualität ist wirklich super und dann noch für so einen Preis wirklich unschlagbar. Ich kann ihn absolut empfehlen. Ganz tolle Arbeit.

Utmärkt för att ha till jobbet. Rymmer mycket och står för sig själv. Grov läderkvalitet som verkar robust.
