This purse is lovely! It really fulfills all the requirements a purse should. The leather is not supple, it is a hard sided partial REAL leather bag with some manmade leather for sturdiness, which is VERY popular right now. Check any store.

The outside pocket has a zip for easy access. Perfect if you need to put something in there, like quick cash or a folded boarding pass. I use it for my iPhone 6s plus and about 3/4 of an inch sticks out. There is no way it would fall out unless the purse was turned upside down. I carry that side towards me so the phone is not accessible to others.

The 2 zipper pockets are great and LARGE. One has 2 pockets for misc. You can stick your phone there if you prefer it inside the bag. I keep my business card case in one and cheaters in the other. The other large pocket has a smaller zipper pocket in it for my misc lip color and Motrin, etc. I fit an 8' x 5" notebook in that pocket. I LOVE that there are 2 bi directional zippers on the large pockets..such easy access. When using the purse, I identify that side is the same side as the outer zipper pocket so I don't keep opening the wrong zipper pocket.

Here is the HUGE SELLING POINT for me. There is a middle pocket between the 2 large zipper pockets with a magnetic snap which really works! I keep my large wallet (the type that is large enough to carry a checkbook) there. I also keep a pair of sunglasses and my keys in there and it still closes and is NOT bulky. Such easy access to things I use constantly, without being noticeable to anyone or in an open area.

The metal hardware is more of a gun metal gray, which is a unique and a great accent against my red bag. There are 2 handles and one shoulder strap. The shoulder strap is adjustable. There are 5 holes to chose for adjusting. You can wear it cross body, but I didn't find that overly comfortable, but that option would be great in a crowd. It is great for a shoulder bag.

I'm so pleased with this bag and if you are a pocket purse lover, then this is the one for you!

I use one main purse and only rarely switch to a small thing for dressing up or for travel. I'm not into designer names, and I don't usually spend much on purses - usually less than this - but I'm willing to spend a little more for higher quality & durability. I'll use a purse until it wears out.

I've had all kinds of purses in the past, from hyper-organized to single-compartment sack, from med-small to huge. My last was a large tote & everything went in. This time around I wanted to downsize a little, and I wanted something with a more classic style.

I ordered a few candidates. This one was the least stylish of the bunch, but the size was perfect, as was the number of open & zipper pockets. I like having a zipper on the main compartment (in this case there are 2), an exterior zipper pocket for small things that need to be handy, as well as an open pocket for larger things I need handy (like sunglasses, sanitizer wipes / gel, and mask).

Not only did this purse meet all of my compartment needs, but I find them all easy to access and just the right size - large enough for everything I put inside plus a little extra room to spare. I can slide my 10" tablet into the center open compartment when needed. I haven't tested it but am confident I could do the same with a small water bottle without pushing the purse out of shape.

While it wasn't the most stylish of the bunch, it was a lot more attractive in person than I expected, and now I really do love it. It looks like high quality (to my admittedly frugal eye) and it holds its shape nicely. While the items are easy to access, the compartments stay shaped and items slide in nicely, very well-organized. Zippers slide open & closed smoothly without catching. The lining fabric is quality. And the leather is thick and soft, firm but yielding like good quality leather. I got the wine color, and it's really nice & is true to the photos. The hardware is hefty and an attractive hematite gray color and doesn't look cheap. The quality was worth the price.

My only complaint is that the strap, on the shortest notch, is still a bit long for me to comfortably wear the bag over my shoulder, which is my preference. I'm 5'5" and the top of the bag rests low on my hip, which is not an ideal height for reaching in / looking through it. (The good news for some is that it should be long enough for crossbody wear.) I'm sure it'll be easy enough to punch another buckle hole to shorten it, but for now I'm leaving it to see if I can get used to it. Also, it's so cute that I often find myself leaving the strap folded across the center & carrying it by the handles, which is 100% not my previous habit...but something about it feels right.

I expect it will last me years. Highly recommended.

As a very fussy shopper, it took me months of searching to find a bag with the right size, style, features, quality and price. This was it for me. I was a little dubious about purchasing directly from a Chinese manufacturer rather than a Western brand, but frankly all the popular big-name brands are made in China and I'd rather not pay an outrageous premium for a label.

No regrets on this purchase after three weeks of constant use - crammed full of oddments, shoved under airplane seats, banged around, dropped on asphalt... still holding its shape and looking new. The leather is glossy (not patent-shiny or artificial-looking) black with impeccably finished edges.

The dark nickel hardware is durable, beautifully understated and refined. One minor issue - the clasps for the long shoulder strap were stuck closed and I had to use wrapped pliers to open them the first time; they've worked normally ever since, and may have been glued or sealed for shipping.

Zippers are heavy, operate smoothly and are well-sewn without any slack or puckering around the curved edges. I was a little concerned about the security of the magnetic snap on the center compartment, but the design ensures that it keeps itself closed.

The interior fabric lining is a smooth, heavy brown satin which seems durable. The color is just light enough that things don't get lost, but dark enough that it won't appear grimy from use.

The design has two large zipped compartments, a center compartment with magnetic closure as noted above, two interior drop pockets, an exterior zipped pocket, and an interior zipped pocket. My only complaint about this is that the interior/exterior zipped pockets are on the same side of the bag and their contents can interfere with each other. Otherwise, great organization for most users - I added two pouches for cosmetics and loose items.

This bag is also a great travel companion - accommodated an 8" tablet in the center compartment with perfect accessibility and protection. The combination of satchel handles and cross-body/shoulder strap makes for good ergonomics - I can unburden my shoulders if the bag is heavily loaded, grab it easily from under a seat, wrap it on the handle of a roller bag, and so on.

I would definitely purchase again from this manufacturer, but suspect that I won't have to replace this bag for years.

I LOVE THIS BAG! I was so excited when my bag arrived, is true to its description. The leather is smooth and has a nice sheen to it. I am delighted with the Khaki color and beautiful coffee colored interior. The high quality of the bag and structured lines are sophisticated and classy. The hardware and zippers are a gun metal color and very sturdy. The dual zippers on the two larger pockets are a really nice feature. The middle pocket has a magnetic clasp and is perfect for quick storage. I don't typically set my purse on surfaces, but the metal feet are a great feature to ensure the bottom of the bag stays clean. The attention to detail is wonderful.

This is a well made purse with high quality workmanship: interior fabric and zippers are high quality. From a distance the purse probably looks really nice. But the "leather" it's made of has a cheap feel to it. I wish they'd used a higher grade of leather; I'd be willing to pay the extra price as the design of the purse was exactly what I was looking for: it stands upright on its own, has 3 major compartments, and would be great for a well organized purse. I would return it, but it doesn't qualify any longer to be return (time has run out). I probably won't end up using it much because of the cheap feel to it. The khaki is ok - more of a camel color. I had previously ordered the "brown" one, but it was far too orange-ish and returned it.
