LEABAGS London messenger bag shoulder bag for 13 inch laptop of genuine leather in vintage style

I am using this bag to carry a Moleskine notebook (size A4), a foldable LED light unit, a small book, and a few documents. (Which means this bag can accommodate something like an iPad, although I do not have one.) So, this bag would be perfect if you are just looking for something with the specific intention to hold a few items that are letter or A4 size.Insofar as the style is concerned, I like it, with the exception of two things: (1) the half leather half polyester strap, and (2) magnetic snap button. A leather strap with buckle (or something along that line) would be more secure.Update 30 July 2015:In case a prospective buyer wants to have some idea about the interior space, you can fit about 3 Moleskine Size A4 notebooks (21cm x 29.8cm x 1.7cm, or 8.25" x 11.75" x 3.63") comfortably (comfortably as in snug-fitting, but if you actually carry 3 of these notebooks, the bag will feel heavy), assuming that the small pockets are nearly empty.

I've had this bag for a few months now, and I'm ready to say that it is fantastic. The leather can get a little scuffed, but that just adds to the charm of it, in my opinion. It's durable (I put it through its paces, using it daily as my man-purse), and I am confident that it will continue to serve for a good long time.There are lots of pockets in this thing, too. Lots. You can't necessarily use all of them for bulky things, because the pockets are all essentially flat, and putting things in them means thickening the bag as a whole. That said, you can use some for flat things and some for non-flat things. I regularly keep a large backup battery (Anker 20100), a bluetooth keyboard, and my tablet in there, and while there's not a lot of room after those things, there is still some room. I will say that I haven't been able to snap it closed in a long time, probably because I'm trying to carry too much stuff in it. In fact, I just shifted things around a little in there, and now it closes just fine.This bag is classy and suitable for your daily carry to and from work, but don't plan on being able to fit any laptops except the very smallest inside. Perhaps one of those 11.6-inch chromebooks or the smallest apple laptops. It's not really for that purpose. This is a purse, essentially, but one that society doesn't judge men too harshly for using. I find this style of bag much more practical and comfortable than a standard messenger bag (which would be in the horizontal orientation), because this lays closer to my body when I walk and doesn't bang into door frames and the like. At least, it doesn't do so nearly as often.I recommend the Olive color, though in truth it's closer to a mossy-brown than olive. The reason I like the greenish color is because it can work with earth tones as well as neutrals. Obviously it looks even more handsome with earth tones, but you won't look mismatched carrying it while wearing your grays and blacks. There's something about a brown bag with a black jacket that just makes me wince. Perhaps that is my own neurosis coming through.I like this big so much, I'm thinking about looking into one of the smaller (Dover) bags, as a bag to put guitar accessories and such into, or just as a general all-purpose extra bag. I love bags, and I love this bag. Thanks, LEABAGS. This is a fine product.

I've had this for close to a year now so I feel ready to get this down. Here's what you need to know about this bag by LEABAGS;- Leather quality, stitching, construction, strap, buckles... they are all top notch. The real deal.- Strap is a perfect size. Not too thin and painful when full, not too thick and cumbersome.- This bag has enough room for an 9''x11'' rectangular object, so most sketchbooks and small laptops fit beautifully in the main compartment.- My ONLY gripe is that it's allergic to long pencils and pens.I am pretty much in love with my Leabag. To preface: I am a ritual sketch artist and had been carrying the same Jansport backpack for 12 years to transport my supplies. I long felt my backpack was not efficient and sought a more handy approach, thus leading me to this purchase. Since this is a leather bag, it took a month or two to properly break in. (I am quite infamous for always having a sketchbook on me so it was not long before the bag was well traveled.)It is quite near the definition of perfect. The front flap is just long enough that it weighs itself into position without intervention after retrieving items inside. The long strap can be adjusted to comfort with ease. The magnet in front is very durable. The pockets are ideal standard sizes. I could go on. As I mentioned, the only struggle I have encountered is with the pockets in the main cabin being short. This makes storing Tombow pens or Blackwing pencils a compromise. It hasn't slowed me down one bit though.I am very very very pleased with this purchase.

I previously purchased but immediately returned, www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GF55MNE because it was much too large and the color was not great. However, I am very pleased with this black bag which is bit smaller (shorter and not as wide). The size and overall quality of the leather is very nice and I have received many compliments on it. This bag is very deep but not very wide so do not be prepared to carry lot of thick, bulky items.I carry a small purse/wallet, two phone iPad Air, a full sized note book and a portable charger. It is not great if you a looking to carry bulky items think items. It is great for guys and for gals who are not carrying all the items women tend to load up in their traditional pocketbooks.I have never used a Leabag before so I hope the leather endures. I made this purchase to replace my Calvin Klein black leather messenger bag and actually this one is more refined looking. So.....5 stars!

It's much bigger in person. I need to return.

Did not like material.

I liked the bag, but I wasn't expecting such a suede texture (it looked smoother in the pictures, and the description said "oiled surface" which I mistook to mean...

Very good deals, thanks!

great quality for the price

Looks as good as the pic. Fits my Dell XPS 13 laptop and other items. Super classy.

Very nice. As described.

Well, I just couldn't fit all the stuff in my back pocket anymore!! The strap, you should scrap that!

This is a modified review as I found a tag after I wrote the first review that supports the authenticity of the leather and I initially questioned it.

This bag is very well made. The quality of the leather is exceptional. I bought it to carry my ipad pro 12.9 inch in.
