A gift for my son. Yes zipper did not slide perfectly every time. My greatest disappointment was with the response from Texbo. A card included with the bag gave an email address to contact the company for questions. NO RESPONSE! I tried researching the company and found no location or company information, I think it is probably a cheap business located in China. Improper grammar in the insert made me suspicious. Will not buy from Texbo again!

I love this bag, there are many compartments and it looks/feels well made. I will be traveling a lot in my new position and this bag will definitely work for me rather than the average travel bag.

Ive been using this backpack for over 6 months now and I really enjoy it. It still holds up to daily use to and from work and I receive a lot of complements from coworkers. I would certainly recommend this bag to anyone that wants a classy commuter bag with plenty of space. As an added bonus, the exterior pockets are pretty firm so you can put in items that may need an extra layer of protection.

This is an awesome bag. It will accommodate my laptop, iPad, pen and paper notebook, Bose Soundlink III, with all of their chargers and cables as well as my paperwork and my lunch with room to spare. The multiple external pockets are very convenient and quite useful, although they do detract from the aesthetic value of the beautiful leather. The construction of the bag seems very solid, although I have only had it for a few weeks. I will have to see how it holds up with use. This is not a beautiful bag, but it certainly gets the job done admirably. I am VERY happy with this purchase.

This book bag was amazing. Perfect size and good for a college student. I liked the leather, and do not regret my buy :)

Im a college student, so money is something I have to be careful with (which is bad because I looove shopping!). Im a dedicated fan of leather bags and leather products and by far, this takes the cake. Its high quality (especially with the zipper I keep seeing bad reviews about) and more than worth the money. If youre on the fence, buy it! And for future note: but from Texbo! Their products are a much higher quality over other sellers on this site.

I had been watching this item for a while and decided to treat myself. Glad I did as the quality is amazing, soft leather, but sturdy and well made. I wanted an item that would house my iPad, Laptop, cell phone, and accessories nicely, and this item did the job and then some. Very elegant and stylish, and those around will notice quality of the item as it speaks volumes about your choice in craftsmanship.

Very nice pack well thought out and made. Plenty of room to insert my padded camera divider. The velcro in addition to the straps is a great touch. A standard water bottle fits in the side pockets and the others are large enough to be usefull. To nitpick question the vertical zippers closed position is up, but dont let that be a deal breaker it is a lot for the money.

This is an excellent bag. My previous bag was a black nylon messenger bag, but after it started to get worn out I decided to purchase this. My thoughts are thus: Pros: - This is real leather. Real, real leather. As soon as you open and smell that real leather smell, you will know this to be true. You will feel it, just to be sure, and it will feel wonderful. Then you will know that this is not only real leather, its the good real leather. Its that kind that says Hello life. You dont look so tough, and yet somehow still feels soft because its so smooth. - It fits everything. On paper, this is the same size as my old bag, yet somehow it both looks smaller and has more space. I took everything out of my old bag, and put it in this bag, plus an umbrella, and I still have an empty pocket or two. Also, everything is easy to get to. Whenever I sit down to do something, I can get out everything I need with one, maybe two, zipper pulls. My old bag took at least three. - It looks amazing. Nothing looks good in brown except leather. This thing makes you look like a professional whatever-you-are who knows exactly what theyre doing, and looks good doing it. Youre someone who eats some difficult thing for breakfast. - Every detail is taken care of. This bag feels like someone made a bag, nitpicked everything that was wrong with it, made a new bag, nitpicked everything that was wrong with that, and made a new bag, over and over, until it became perfection. Im saying: The stitching is done right. The construction is solid. The straps can actually be adjusted while wearing it (why cant other bags do that?). The zipper pull tabs wont jingle against each other as you walk (looking at you, black messenger bag; that sound is so undignified). Everything about this bag says that someone cared about it and did everything right. Cons: - Your friends wont know what to get you for your birthday, because all of your problems in life will suddenly be solved. Also, theyll want to buy their own, but wont just to avoid copying you, which will make them even more jealous and mad. - If you own a leather jacket, you wont be able to wear it the same time as this bag without looking like a jerk. - When you die, the bag will still be in great shape and your ghost will be like Shoot. I wish I could use that bag. - You will become disappointed by every other bag you see, and start judging people for not making as good a bag choice as you did. - The bag will look so good that you will feel that everyone should compliment you on it, causing you to hate everyone who doesnt. - You will hate yourself for not buying it sooner. If you have the money, as well as self respect and an appreciation for quality products, then buy this bag and love it.

This is a solid piece, and has become my daily laptop carrier. I get quite a few comments on how well-made and potentially long-lasting it looks.
