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. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love it *by on Reviewed in the United States July 13, 2024* Been looking for an affordable leather backpack to carry my work/school things in. This backpack seems sturdy while comfortable. Very roomy and big(18 in), hubby says I should have bought 16in but since I’m going to be carrying a fair amount of items especially since I ride my bike to work I prefer to go bigger. But even being 5’2” I don’t feel like it looks too big on me. This will also make a good carry on when needed as I’ll need my hands for my toddler. Good weight to it but not heavy. Came in rather stiff as to be expected and a chemical smell which also I’ve found is common with packaged leather goods to keep leather from going bad. I stuffed it with 3 throw pillows and wiped it down with Leather cleaner and then with conditioner. 3rd day and it’s getting softer. Low rating helped keep my expectations within reasonable standard and “you get what you pay for” mentality but this is a golden egg for me. I love it and hope to keep loving it for a long time as it seems to look like it’s going to have a long life with me. Keep your standards reasonable this isn’t a gucci product not made for the picky. It’s a good rucksack at an affordable price. 40 oz Stanley and composition notebook for size reference ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great big backpack! *by on Reviewed in the United States July 22, 2024* So I was curious about all the reviews that say it smells. look in the front pocket there is a card that tells you how to reduce the smell. It was tightly packed folded and all the metal was wrapped. tightly. . The smell was mild by then and it has started to have that leather smell. I have not treated it with saddle soap yet, but I plan to do that soon. too help it decompress and shape I stuffed it with pillows and left it for a few days, but some of the creases are still there. I personally don't mindThis thing is a behemoth! I plan on using this for our homeschool year to cary our computers. tablets and books when we need to be on the road everything we need fits and there is still room to stack upwards. Pockets galore! I don't even know what to put in them all, but I am sure that I will find something!
