I bought this bag for a family vacation for Washington DC. I wanted something that did not look like a “mom bag” but could hold things like one. I added a Velcro strap cushion and this bag was nearly perfect. First, it simply looks good. It has a nice, clean look to it. It can give a more professional look or a more relaxed/casual look depending on the outfit you pair it with. The inner pockets were perfect to hold my rather large iPhone in one and keys, mini hand sanitizer, bandaids, lip balm, etc etc. my sunglass case is obnoxiously large and I was able to hold it along with my tall, reusable water bottle (could not zip with this in), an umbrella, one kids’ book he has to have on hand along with the other’s travel size drawing book and markers, snacks, first aid, my large wallet...you get the picture. It’s a more stylish Mary Poppins bag. The strap is wide and easy to adjust. It looks great either extended for a cross-body carry, long shoulder drop on one shoulder or shortened to a shoulder carry under your arm. I have trouble with shoulder pain, so the addition of the cushioned pad my husband gave me on the strap was for my personal benefit knowing we were doing A LOT of walking in DC but I’m sure many people would find the wide strap comfortable and not digging into their shoulder. The fabric is so soft and smooth! I love the grey coloring. Now for the cons: I don’t believe this bag is waterproofed. It does have a nice inner lining and I was in a downpour and nothing inside got wet but if you were going to be near water with the potential for it to fall or in rain for a length of time I believe the inside items will get wet. Also, the zipper is affixed in such a way that even when fully zipped shut there is an opening that will allow rain to get in on one corner. This leads me to my only true disappointment with this bag. The zipper could be better. It feels somewhat fragile, like if pulled to hard it could be pulled from the bag itself. There is the hole where the zipper is not 100% attached to the bag as I previously stated. If my bag is very full and weighted down, I have to support the bag from the bottom to zip the bag. If the bag is not carrying a lot of weight, I can zip the bag pretty easily. For the price I personally paid for this bag, I am in love with it and would purchase it again!

I wondered if this was bag going to be junky and cheap, but in fact, its a nice, simple, casual bag: roomy, lightweight and very comfortable. It holds a ton of things neatly and close to the body. The strap is wide and soft and doesnt slip, and is easy to adjust, whether you want to wear it crossbody or on the shoulder. There are two rectangular pockets inside that easily hold my phone and keys, and the top zips closed. I followed another commenters advice and used a seam ripper to remove the white label, which was kind of cute, but ungrammatical--as an editor, it finally got to me! It came right off, leaving no marks. I put all the same stuff from my usual purse in this and a Baggalini bag I was considering, and the same stuff felt lighter and more comfortable to carry in this bag. Id buy it again.

I like the size of the bag. It’s very lowkey, good for what I need it for (which was just a way for me to get my wallet, planner, a book and keys around without holding them all in my hands). I was disappointed when I first opened the package and looked at the bag, because the stitching on mine was poorly done in multiple places and is very visible on the outside of the bag. I posted my review and photos, after deciding it wasn’t worth the effort to return. The seller immediately contacted me, assured me that was not their usual quality and offered to make it right with a refund. Its a lot of work to return just for a meager amount, so I plan on reinforcing some of the stitching as it doesn’t look sturdy enough to hold too much weight for little long. I expected it to also be a heavier material for the bag, but it’s a light canvasy material. It is soft shelled so dips like the photo but is not soft material in particular.

EDIT 2: Gross smell would not wash away. Tried fabric odor-neutralizing spray, even. No luck. After 6 rounds through the washer and once through the dryer, the bag is quite faded from its original color, it looks several years old. And it smells just as bad as it ever did. Wont be able to use it. Quite disappointing. EDIT: Bag has a weird small. On its third wash now, and the smell has still not come out. Not pleased. Great bag for the price. Material is much more durable than expected, more canvas than fabric (from the pics, I anticipated it would be thinner than it actually is. Only major downside was the large, ugly label on the outside, but that was easily solved by a few minutes with a seam ripper. The label is not glued on, so it was fairly easy to remove.

Purchased this bag for my son to use as part of his "newsboy" Halloween costume. The plan was to stitch a few rolled up papers along the rim so it looked like he was carrying papers and at the same time as his trick or treat bag. Well when it arrived we realized the 2 inside pockets were deep enough to hold the papers and the bag itself is deep enough for plenty of trick or treating yumminess!!! The bag seems very durable and it is the perfect size to use for everyday adventures. I like the bag so much that once he is done with it I am keeping it for myself to use!!! Perfect size to hold everyday essentials, durable material, zippered to keep your items safe and the color is so pretty!!!
