Looking at the tag that came with the bag, I noticed that the material the bag was made was listed as man-made leather. I guess I should have been more careful, I assumed the bag was made of real leather when I saw "cowhide" in the title and reading some reviews that claimed that it is made of real leather. If this bag was made of real leather it I well worth the price, but it is made of bonded and man made leather(I had to Google what kind of leather it is after seeing it on the tag). I don't think it's worth 60+ USD $. The craftsmanship of the bag isn't that great either...there are thread that hang out from places and places where you can see the back stitching of threads.None the less it is a very cute bag, I love the design . I am just hoping the bonded leather won't start cracking and fall apart after sometime of use, I read that is a common problem with bonded leathers.I absolutely LOVE this bag. it’s so versatile and it’s made well. im beyond impressed with the quality and how durable it feels. it’s perfect for a day bay and fits all my essentials.Love this backpack, it just barely fits a water bottle, but I’ll just buy mini ones for my hikes.This product went above and beyond my expectations. When I initially saw the price I was shocked and doubtful of this product. However, seeing as this fit most of the requirements I wanted in a brown leather traveling bag, I bit the bullet and places my order.Since I’ve received this, there hasn’t been a moment where I’ve regretted buying this. I wanted a small classic leather bag for travel which would at least fit my camera, cellphone and wallet, if not a few more extras. The strap is long and adjustable. The only thing I don’t like about it is that the leftover part of the strap hangs past the bag if you buckle it as short as possible, which is how I’ll wear it. I uploaded photos of the straps as long and as short as they can be There are 2 small compartments on the inside that are large enough to fit your cards, cash, coins or keys. One is zippable while the other is not. The pocket on the front is perfect for a large phone. The iPhone in my picture is one of the larger models. It may not good for putting items smaller than this because of the opening at the side. Do this at your own risk. I put my camera on the inside and it takes up half of the bag with plenty of space remaining if I wanted to carry something else like makeup, hand lotion, glasses, a camera lens or whatever other small object. My camera is a Sony a6400 which is relatively small.For size clarification, I’m 5’8 125lbsThis was one of the best Amazon purchases that I have ever made. If you are looking for a nice, durable, small that doesn't look cheap, then buy this one!I bought this as a gift for my wife. I was concerned that it was fake leather due to the price and questions that people were asking. Some people are asking if this is really leather. I tested the best way I knew how- the man way. I tested the sample piece that is attached to the bag with a blow torch that burn just under 2000 degrees to see if is was faux leather or real leather. Definitely REAL leather. If this was faux leather, the sample would have melted into a burning pile of goo. Instead, it had that very distinct smell of burning leather and resisted burning. There are nylon based fabrics on the inside to complete the look and function of the inside. For the price, quality and look, this is a nice leather bag.I've been searching for soo many brown mini or medium backpacks and decided to purchase the brown leather one. Did not disappoint I love it! The price is worth it since it's real leather had other members of my family inspect if it was and it is leather. It's a very smooth leather as shown on pictures, doesn't look cheap the color is a little darker than shown on the picture, it's a perfect fancy brown. There weren't enough reviews but I'm glad I bought something that will last me longer than a cheaper less expensive bag. It's perfect for every occasion. It came very well package even on a soft bag to protect it, the straps are sturdy and leather as well, my huge phone will fit on the front pocket were the clip is. Will like to purchase other color when I get money :)Genuine leather - fits as hoped. My daughter loves it.Joli sac ,de petite dimension comme décrit. Le seul point négatif est que les courroies sont étroites et peu confortables.Super cute ! I'm really happy, it's so small, but it's definitely worth it. And the leather looks real. ☺️It is real leather. Looks cute when put on.Well made.
