> 3 dayBeen looking for a quality satchel for months, and after looking at all the reviews from other vendors I decided to go with Komals. It was definitely the right choice. The quality of the craftsmanship is amazing. It is quite obvious that Komal takes pride in his work, the stitching and the zippers are top notch. I can imagine my kids fighting over who gets this when i am no longer here. It is definitely something that will last for many many years. When I brought it into my work, everyone was commenting on how much they loved it and so far one of my co-workers has ordered a different style from Komal, she gets hers today. Besides being an engineer, I am a Chef at heart, all those years watching my Italian Grandmother and mother cooking it is one of my great passions, I was very pleased to find out after reaching out to Komal that they will be offering a Knife Roll, my DalStrong Shogun knives will be looking forward to his new creation.

> 3 dayI received this messenger bag very quickly. It is beautiful! I got the 16 bag, for my 14 laptop and it fits as expected. The leather is lovely, and I expect to get many years use from it. When I showed it to my husband, he liked it so much that he immediately ordered himself one, plus a duffel bag! I love the styling and the quick buckle underneath the regular buckle. There are separate compartments for files and such, with several extra zippered compartments. It arrived with every metal part securely wrapped, in an over bag to protect the surface.

> 3 dayIn a year where its easy to be negative - this bag was a bright spot. It arrived a day earlier than estimated - and the surprises kept coming. I was amazed at how well it was packaged. Aside from multiple layers of plastic, it had a protective fiber bag encapsulating it. The leather is beautiful. The bag looks fantastic. Its distressed finish is amazing. Ive seen a number of these types of bags and one wonders what dumpster they dug it out of. Not this one. Aside from all the beautiful leather, it has a nice internal fabric that seems to perfectly complement the style. The bag feels roomy without looking huge. So much care was paid to ensure that it arrived in mint condition. EVERY metal item - buckles, zippers, clasps, and rivet - had foam, tape or plastic (or a combination of all of them) to ensure that the leather was not marked by the metal during shipment. Im just so impressed. I just keep thinking that I found the best value of 2020. Awarding five stars just somehow feels inadequate.

> 3 dayLet me start of by saying buy this bag at such a low price and you will not regret it. The packaging was if I bought 400 glass bag from over seas. There was layer of plastic wrap over nice draw string bag. Once I opened it I found another plastic bag and then foam wrap under the plastic. Then each piece of metal( even zippers) Were individually wrapped in tape and foam. Instantly I new the owner cares. The the small details in the metal and leather convinced me even more. I originally wanted for the 2 zippers as this will be my daily bag or travel. I didnt realize there were 3 and multiple other pouches till I started packing it up. Build quality is amazing and I cant wait to break it in. It is already standing on its own from the design. Canvas happens to be my favorite color and style, another reason for the purchase. This to is quality and matches perfectly. It also feels like heavy canvas that will stand the test of time. The snap buckles are my only complaint but Im really being picky. They feel on the cheaper side because of how thin they are but the other metal is thick and sturdy. Mine did come with some small flaws like a miss stitch or rivot not 100% straight. I personally think that adds character and it sure doesnt hurt its functionality. I mean isnt this why we buy hand made items to begin with, character? I have not had mine long to really say this will last but I hope it does. It met every need and went beyond my expectations at this price point. ***Update....I would like to add that I had a small issue with my bag. Seems the small screws (like eyeglass size) were missing from one buckle. Simple mistake and I can see how easily it was missed. Since It only came off once I had a good amount of weight in the bag. However, hours after my email the owner got back to me with just one question, my address (Zero hassle!!! How RARE now a days). Just 2 days later he sent me an a new buckle when just screws were missing. I hate to bring up mistakes even when taken care of beyond expectations but I read a lot of complaints about their customer service. My experience was perfect and I will be letting everyone know.*** I would like to end with reviews about the smell. Yes its real leather so yes it will smell but eventually fade. Mine however is not strong and I kind of hope it doesnt fade. I got leather for strength, longevity, style and yes the smell. I mean why buy leather if you dont like the smell? Thats like buying a hat and complaining you dont like things on your head.....

> 3 dayExcellent bag! I bought this bag because I wanted the swivels and quick release buckles that my old one did not offer. As usual from a bag from komal, is amazing. It will darken like my other bag over time but it looks GREAT as is. The pocket on this one is big enough to hold my large phone so that is a plus. One thing I did notice that only time will tell if it makes a difference is the width of the strap. My old one is much wider and thicker, so we will see. A leather worker I met a few years ago guessed I paid around $300 for my old bag and when I told him the price, he actually ordered himself one ! Anyway I hope this review helps others who may be considering this bag. My old one is still in GREAT condition after a lot of use but I just wanted the quicker buckles and swivels.

> 3 dayThis is the second item Ive ordered from Komals Passion Leather. I recognized the name and I immediately chose a bag from this small company versus the other 3 I had in my cart that I liked the look of - because I already KNEW the quality if Kormals would be 5 stars. He puts SO MUCH thought into every single detail that you cant not help noticing and being impressed. All, I mean even the zippers!, of the metal clasps on the bag were individually wrapped so as not to damage the leather. Normal also sent a personal letter explaining the process of how he created the bag, and the best way to take care of it. Again - I am one highly satisfied customer! Ima stalk him on the IG too because Im obsessed with the beautiful craftmanship. Thank you!

> 3 dayI just recieved this bag so i cant attest to durability yet but i am very impressed with the quality of craftsmanship and materials upon opening the package. In addition, the bag was carefully packaged and came with a personal letter from the company explaining care and where to connect if there are any issues. I feel confident that this bag will last and will update if my opinion changes with use.

> 3 dayI just received this product. The leather is thick and durable. Nice cloth lining. A well designed bag mostly. The 3 star review is for the belt buckles on the left and right of the front. Instead of being riveted (which is an appropriate way to attach leather to leather), there are these strange metal prongs that are very flimsy. In fact, the first time I tried to pull the flap tightly closed, the prongs flipped up and came right out of the bag. I will update my review if this is noticed and I am given an opportunity to fix this flaw. I purchase a lot of leather products and I will not be purchasing from the entity until they make attempts to fix this design flaw. The buckles are literally useless and pop out with even the slightest outward pressure. But it will work in the mean time.

> 3 dayI read the review and was a bit unsure of the quality, but with a good return policy, I decided to take a chance. The bag was very well packed to ensure it arrived undamaged. The leather is good quality and thick. The canvas inside the bag is sturdy and looks great. As noted, the color is a bit bright, not quite orange, but that is what you get with minimally processed real leather. I bought a bottle of leather honey and applied it, it looks fantastic, at least I love the color. As it use it and it gets broken in, I am sure the color with continue to get richer. My only critique is for the band of leather around the flap. It would have been nice had it been one continuous piece, you can see where the pieces over lap, but it Is certainly not a flaw, just a suggestion should a redesign be considered. Again, this bag is definitely built to last and great quality at a very good price. I would buy it again, though I am pretty sure I will never have to. The pictures attached are my actual bag taken with my iPad, but to the eye, the bag is definitely darker. The water spots did come with the bag, but I am ok with them as I want it to look broken in, I imagine it will get more so with use. The seller included a very nice note, with a real signature!, stating he would replace this bag if I was unhappy with it, so I am sure that had this been an issue, it could have been resolved easily. This is a real review, I paid full price for this item and am getting nothing in return for this posting.
