Really happy with the bag and the included pouch but wish it had a pocket inside or out as I don’t always use the pouch.
The bag is really great quality and looks great! As advertised.
Kim C.
Amazing style & durability! I've gotten so many "WHERE DID YOU GET THAT BAG"? Buy it you won't be disappointed
Jane A.
Nice size and color, scratches easily.

I absolutely LOVE this bag! I have wanted a leather tote for some time and actually saw this on a journaling you tube video I came across. As soon as I saw it I feel in love and just had to have it. I was so pleased I could find here on Amazon. Its a great size and comes with a handy canvas and leather inner bag which is a great idea, or you could leave it out and use that as a travel/toiletry bag. The tote comes with a handy liner to help keep the shape of the bottom of the bag. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and can't wait for all the compliments I know I'm going to get!

The bag itself is lightweight and large enough to comfortably hold a 15" laptop along with the removeable interior lining. The lining also has 2 large pockets for cell phones etc. I am ditching my laptop backpack as it tends to get overloaded plus with this bag, I don't need a purse. It's a great find for working women / students/ those with a lot of cargo who don't want to carry multiple bags. The choice of leather gives this bag character and longevity. Will update this review when I've used it for a period of time.

Okay. I LOVE this bag. Seller is awesome. I've been using this bag off and on for the last 2 and a half years and it has held up perfectly. I always come back to this bag. The wear of the leather is perfect and adds to the story of the bag. You can fit so much in here. I love it as an everyday carry that I can throw anything into. The inner pouch that comes with it makes it simple to keep the bag organized, but you could also use the bag without the pouch. I love how it basically separates the bag into 3 separate compartments. I would definitely recommend this bag.
Adrienne W.
Beautiful purse. Great size... It's easy to find things. I love it!
Thelma H.
LOVE THIS BAG! The smaller organizer inside of it is perfect and I can travel with it carrying lots of items that I do not want to put in my luggage.. ie: laptop/books etc.
Cristina B.
Way bigger then I thought and kind of flat, less purse like and more laptop bag like. But all in all I do like it!
Ginger C.
Well made, very durable, just a little too heavy
Christine B.
Very satisfied. Cool vintage look and perfect size to hold my books needed for job
Tasha S.
I gave to my daughter in-law for her birthday. She loves it.
Sadie S.
This bag was seriously so amazing! I tend to throw things in my bags and this thing has plenty of space and comes with a pouch inside. It’s durable and large. Would be perfect as a traveling bag too!
Bethany H.
Sturdy durable pure leather with removable pocket
Catherine P.
I got this for my daughter who stashed it away until Spring. She was pleasantly surprised when she found a smaller bag inside as well!
Kim J.
Love this bag but it’s a little hard to get used to having no lining. Good value for the price.
Janie O.
Love it!! Great for the price!
Courtney S.
Absolutely LOVE this bag!! Amazing quality, thick leather, and looks, feels, and smells like saddle leather!! Plus a great price, which was the main reason I bought it!!
Hazel P.
Excellent tote that I use everyday as a purse... love the look, durability, and handles. I am 5’1” and it doesn’t over power me. Good to put magazines or laptop in as well, does scuff like any leather but that just adds to the unique look of it.
Ida J.
Very nice bag! I love the insert as well.
Lori O.
I just wish it had an exterior pocket for my phone. Then it would be perfect.
Melba H.
I wasn’t quite sure what I’d get when I ordered this bag, but I am SO IMPRESSED!! The strap is comfortable, the zipper compartment inside helps keep things organized. It is WELL WORTH the money! Better than any bag I’ve ever owned!
Molly L.
Am head over heals in love with this purse!! Highly Recommend!
Shannon N.
I purchased this as a gift and the person loved it. Based on the item's price, I was surprised and pleased by how well it was packaged and the customer care instructions and support provided.
Marguerite S.
Great leather product. Big and sturdy. Can fit a mini Cooper in this ...lol. I love it and get many compliments. I use it for work.
Ana H.
This bag is Beautiful! It's very roomy and the color is so rich...
Sonya L.
I absolutely love this bag. It is durable a high quality of leather.
Gertrude W.
This is a beautiful, large bag. The extra lil bag inside is perfect for smaller items (wallet, phone, makeup, etc). Very high quality leather and a natural beauty.
Rebecca G.
I love the way it looks and feels but it would be great if it had an interior pocket or two as well as a little keyring strap attached to the inside.
Cecelia H.
This purse is well made and sits up well. I did buy an organizer to put in it and it fits perfectly. The only issue is the purse scratches easily but other than that I love it.
Mildred R.
I just bought this bag for overseas travel and it is great. It is roomy enough to hold all travel docs, laptop, wallet, book, and more. I love the natural look of the raw leather. I am going to buy a smaller Montana Hudson purse for everyday use. The natural leather will be perfect with fall colors. Great purchase.
Alison S.
Wonderful bag! Sturdy, lovely leather. The smell alone is worth the price! Good size, though I wish there were one a little bigger. It's beautiful and I am absolutely delighted with this gift to myself!
Sophia M.
Love the leather, the length of the strap and the size. If you are a Fashionista who love purses, this is for you. I got the brown. This works for running to the mall or as your personal item on the plane. Oh! talk about space. I cannot say more about this bag.
Sandy H.
Loved the tote! Excellent leather and construction.
Krista M.
Seems to be very well made. The leather gets marked up a bit. I'm going to try some leather conditioner.
Doris A.
This is a beautiful tote bag, period. It is unique, supple, and sturdy. It has that real leather smell and is well-made: there are no imperfections in assemble or stitching. This is just a beautiful bag!!!!!!
Emily W.
This bag is beautiful! I haven't been careful, just tossing it in the car and on the floor by my desk at work. I've treated it with Montana Hudson leather lotion two times in over a year and it still looks this good. Best. Bag. Ever.
Karla W.
I received this bag for my birthday. It is beautiful. You need to know that it doesn’t have any protection on the leather, so anything can stain or scratch it. For me this isn’t a problem but will add character. Just something to think about.
Geneva W.
This bag is really terrific. The leather is sturdy but supple. It holds its shape. The handles are a perfect length for wearing on the shoulder yet also not too long for holding by hand. I can fit my laptop, water bottle, wallet, phone and much more. Very attractive bag. Excellent value!
Cynthia L.
WOW!
I'm impressed.
This bag reminds me of a gorgeous Italian leather organic bag I seen at a specialty boutique in California that was 400 dollars.
It gorgeous.
If it was 2-4" wider, exactly the same though, I love it even more.
It holds a lot & I love the bottom piece & the great well made organizer that come with it too.
Great value on a awesome bag.
I love it!
Lindsey B.
Best tote I have ever had. The bag is called
a tote due to it's size. However, I'm using it as my purse. Besides it is real leather and will age like a fine wine, it also comes with a leather insert bag as well.
I am very pleased with my purchase. And... if my other bags could talk, I could hear them now & I'm sure the conversations would not be pleasant...lol.
I probably have at least 100 of them or more. I was (duh) once a purse/tote fanatic or obsessed is more like it with buying nice bags my entire life!!!
Well enough said. I probably have reviewed something 5 times in my life, but I did want to say something about this one. Thank you to the designer!!! AND! Thank you to the leathersmith if that's the correct word to use these days!!!
Enjoy yourself and purchase you one!
You are due! ❤
Lucy J.
The amount of compliments and the durability of this bag drove me to write this review! I seriously can’t say enough incredible things about it. I am a drug rep, so not only do I need to carry an iPad everyday, but I also need to load this bag with samples. Not only has this bag held up (I’ve owned for over 6 months) but it is GORGEOUS!!!! People stop me all the time to ask about it! The only down side is the circle latch on the front of the bag can slide off (I just lost mine this weekend and didn’t realize it:(. But the bag still looks great! I was skeptical about this bag bc, for real leather, the price is incredible! This bag has far surpassed all of my expectations. If you are considering this bag, don’t think twice! It is AMAZING:-)
Jennifer P.
Since Covid for work she has needed an bigger bag than her purse and had a cheap fabric bag for all of her work things, which now includes alcohol spray, glove and masks.
This bag looks much more professional and classy. I went with the natural leather style because if she has to disinfect it and as she uses it over time it should age nicely.
After opening it for X-mas and going over it she really loved the sturdiness of it right away and has been using it and happy ever since.
Antoinette F.
I love it as an everyday carry that I can throw anything into. I would definitely recommend this bag.
Tara B.
Great size and sturdy. The handles are woven on the back with a leather strap sewn on the top so the soft fabric sits on your shoulder instead of having the edge of the leather cut into your shoulder when the bag is heavy. The top edge of the bag (the opening) is clean cut but not trimmed, sewn, lined, or folded over. The edge has a short fray look that is part of the style. See photo. There is an insert that fits snuggly in the bottom and keeps the bag's shape. It stands upright with the insert - no slouching or tumbling (unless something heavy like a laptop is inside and leaning against one side - doesn't defy gravity). The closure is a leather loop that is attached on the back and can be pulled over the top and fastened to a leather disk on the front. I don't close mine (it doesn't seal the bag shut) so I pull strap on the back into the bag to keep it from snagging on things outside. The leather is pre-distressed and has marks on it. It has gotten a few more but it adds to the authentic look. I've received many compliments on this bag! It also comes with a bonus zippered pouch with interior pockets. It is soft sided and a good size. I don't use it in the bag but keep it separate.
Phyllis B.
I love the bag itself, as it’s large and stylish. I needed something that I could fit my work laptop into, and this works. The organizer however, which is desperately needed because the bag has no pockets, is a bit annoying and has a tight opening. Overall a good buy, but I wish the bag had a couple of pockets on its own.
Lavonne S.
I never received the wallet. It looks nice though. I do love the tote
Emma P.
Well made tote bag. Unique look that stands out. Holds all I need for work.
Pauline E.
I have gotten SO many compliments on this bag! Not that $80 is cheap, but it looks WAY more expensive than price! I love the inner pocket, and it actually protected my bag when my water spilled. The outside of the bag is SOFT, and it is getting that worn in look! I LOVE it!!
Lillie Y.
I received the tote packaged nicely. The leather is nice and has that genuine worn look and feels good. I’ve used every day since receiving it and it is wearing very well, no signs of coming apart or threads coming loose. The interior organizer was a nice bonus, holds wallet, cell phone, glasses and much more nicely. The bad is also comfortable to carry. I would recommend it.
Sheila C.
I was pleasantly surprised at the heft and quality of the leather. This is not a soft buttery leather but this is all about durability. I am pretty sure with on going use it will break in a bit. This is exactly what I wanted and am very delighted with this purchase.
Krista L.
I love this bag! I’ve carried it everyday since it arrived and it’s sturdy and has a lot of character! The reinforced straps are comfortable and I love that I can zip my wallet into the tote inside. Most of the time I keep the tote inside open and tuck my phone into one of the extra pockets for easy access.
Hilda M.
This tote is beautifully made of sturdy leather. I am especially fond of the insert, which corrals all my purse-type items, and leave plenty of space in the tote for purchases, tablet and travel items. I'd recommend it for its style and utility.
Minnie S.
Bare bones beautiful and functional. Has straps that are not too thick but canvas reinforced like old school saddles. This bag is perfect for holding my laptop, notebooks, and supplies with a square bottom so it doesn't fall over. doesn't close on top so it could spill smaller items but I keep those in the pouch that came with it so it's not been a problem.
Lauren G.
I love everything about this bag! Great quality, the insert that comes with it helps you stay organized, and it was a steal as a lightening deal! The leather is so nice and pretty. I would totally buy it again!
Ellen T.
I purchased this product as a laptop back for work. The bag is better constructed than I expected. Plus the insert pouch is perfect for all of my computer/office accessories. I can fit my laptop the insert bag a planner and a small purse all inside. I do wish the bag was an inch or two wider but that is only because I carry so much.
Patsy V.
Really love this tote. Thick leather, great color. Size is perfect for carrying laptop, books, etc. The leather straps, with the backing, are just the right length; very strong comfortable. I love that it came with a high quality inner purse, too. And, the breathable bag for storing the tote, was a nice touch. I'd buy this again with no hesitation.
Wilma F.
I use this daily and love it. The leather (it is real leather, NOT PU) is very thick - water buffalo if I remember right. It shows the natural scars/scuffs from the animal hide and is stiff when you first start to use the purse. After some time - couple weeks or months depending - it softens. It will always be "rustic" and show the wears and scuffs of normal life. But I like that.
Debbie W.
It is everything I wanted it to be! I use it for work, and I love that it is an open bag so I can fit large items (lunch, laptop, etc.) with a zipper pouch to hold my loose things. It has the professional and casual feel I was looking for. Definitely genuine leather, and it does scuff as a result. I have no doubt I will continue using this bag and retreating it for many years!
Janie P.
I love this bag!! I use it for work and love it!! It is soft and huge inside. I do wish it had more than the insert pouch for pockets, but I like it.
Jaime G.
This is a beautiful bag. It is perfect. Lots of room for this and that. The leather has held up really well. I get a lot of compliments.
Barbara R.
Luv the quality and how the sides are firm so it stands up. perfect for traveling! Luv luv luv this purse! Even bought on for my sister because she fell in love also!
Lena P.
I love everything about this purse. The leather quality and room are perfect for my taste. The only downside is I had my Prada sunglasses case, which is white inside of it and the edgers of it turned brown from the leather dye. That being said, it still deserves 5 stars. I carry everything it the kitchen sink and the durability is impressive. All eyes on me because the beauty and quality of this purse captured the attention of both men and women. Buy it.
Stacy F.
I am very pleased with this bag for the price. It is easy to carry, looks nice and is a nice size. It will comfortably hold my laptop or even a pair of shoes or a change of clothes. I was most impressed with the customer service of the seller. I took the bag on a trip shortly after I received it and I lost the leather "button". It is simply tied on with a piece of leather and I should have checked to make sure it was secure. I contacted the seller who was very responsive. Despite several complications including their factory being shut down at the time, the seller came through when able by sending me a new piece to repair the bag. I was so delighted when it was received because I know it was not easy to get it sent to me. It is now back to new. Thank you!
Frances N.
Absolutely love this bag. The convertible pouch is also amazing. I decided to purchase the wallet from the same company. Very happy with this brand so far.
Elvira W.
Looks better in person. Large, quality material, looks expensive. Buy it!
Norman B.
I bought this for my wife and surprised her with it. She loved it! It’s good quality leather and completely leather. There is a bag inside that is nice thick canvas-like material and my wife uses that to put emergency baby essentials in just in case we don’t have it forgot the diaper bag.
Terri K.
I've been searching for a good looking work bag to hold a laptop and files. The SZone bag is perfect! This bag is solidly constructed, stands independently when put down and has a trendy distressed look to it. The accompanying pouch is large and helps to keep miscellaneous items organized.
Edna L.
What a great bag! I wanted a bag to use as a carryon when flying. I always see others with beautiful bags while traveling but none seemed to meet my needs and not cost a small fortune. This bag and the included canvas pouch are of quality material, look great, and can hold all my needed “stuff” that I want to be accessible and still fit under the seat. I used it this weekend on a trip and, I’m not kidding, a woman came up to me at the gate to ask my where I had gotten it. I love it!
Mary F.
If you are looking for a large handbag this is it. I love it. The handbag comes with a zippered pouch, I didn't think i would use the pouch but soon realized that its great for organization and zips. As this is new leather, the bag is stiff but works out for standing up and doesn't fall over. I would highly recommend. Also note that this is a heavy bag when you have stuff in it as leather is heavy on its own.
Alyssa H.
I was ready for a new work bag. This one is classy and durable. I place my laptop inside, my wallet and other necessities and off I go. I love the flat bottom and the little accessory bag it came with. This is a very nice bag for the price. I receive compliments often.
Jean D.
I love this bag and get soooo many compliments on it!! Great unfinished and hand-made artisan style. I use it primarily for my work bag to take things back & forth to the office in place of a purse.
Melinda S.
It holds ALL of my daily junk. I get many compliments, I even had a lady at my doctors office ask me if she could touch it. I LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!
Molly M.
I go from place to place a lot and I needed a bag that would allow me to go from work to kids' activities easily without having to switch out bags often or take many bags with me for the different events. This is great. The small cloth bag holds all my usual purse essentials (lip balm, charging cord, work ID, etc) and the larger tote allows me to pop in a water bottle or paperwork or spare shoes without making the bag feel overwhelming. The handles are long enough to slide over my shoulder with my winter coat on, too, making it that much easier to use each day.
Rosemary W.
The bag is exactly as described. This is real leather. The size fits a medium purse, a flask, a few files, a sweater. It is exactly what I was looking for, and without having to pay hundreds of dollars for real leather.
Nicholas R.
I am so in love with this bag! It is all that it says it is! It is definitely a work horse of a bag! It carries quit a bit and the insert is perfect! It's so rustic or vintage like! ♡♡♡♡♡I feel like Anne Oakley with this bag!!
Lana S.
This is a beautiful purse. It's a perfect size and I love the insert purse because it keep everything so organized. The leather is wonderful quality too. Looking forward to using this as my everyday bag for a while.
Hope S.
Beautifully made and feels amazing.
Recommend this bag for daily use, work or travel, lots of room!
The leather has a worn look reminds me of the old west.
I love it!!!!!!
Tabitha E.
This bag is large enough to use as a travel purse however I use for everyday use. I love it and have gotten many compliments on it. It is well made and fits my style perfectly. I have scuffed it up in several places but I’m fine with that. I got this purse on sale and was very very pleased with the price!!! I will likely buy more products from this seller
Anna C.
The first time I used my bag people asked me where I got it from. They loved the uniqueness of the bag which is why I got it. Couldn’t be happier with the bag!
