KPL Vintage 15 Inch Laptop Messenger Bag briefcase Satchel laptop bag for Men and Women

I decided that at 51 years old, I deserved to carry something a bit more dignified than a standard-issue fabric computer-branded bag for my daily items and carry-on bag. I couldnt be more pleased with the quality of this bag for the price I paid. Leather is supple and beautiful, contrasting lining makes items easy to find, and the spring-loaded buckles under the belt straps make quick retrieval of items in an airport easy. It also easily fits underneath the seat in an airplane while holding my laptop, reference manuals, wireless mouse, work phone I never use when I dont have to, and latest novel Im reading to drown out airport life. I suppose my only complaint is that the strap is a bit long (Im 61 and have it adjusted on the lowest setting) and the shoulder pad doesnt stay put, but this is nothing that cutting off the excess strap and a discrete stitch or concealed zip tie wont solve. Just get this. For the price you will be amazed.

We have purchased 4th bag we have purchased from Komal Chaudhari. The craftmanship is amazing. We are very pleased with these bags. From the bag itself to the packaging, he places the utmost care on his product. We would purchase again and will recommend him. Thank you! 5 stars!

This bag is amazing. I was looking for one that is similar to Dr. Spencer Reids bag on Criminal Minds and this one is almost identical! His doesnt have the center pocket, but I love it! The color is lighter than the picture shown which I also like, and the hardware is all individually wrap-protected. It comes packaged with a very nice note from the seller, and its wrapped in a silky purple drawstring bag. It smells that wonderful leather smell, and Im sure Im going to get a lot of use from this bag and have fun breaking it in!

Bought this for traveling with a 13.4 MacBook Air in a snug-fitting leather sleeve. It barely fits in the 15 inch satchel. but it doesnt move around. I like the vintage look and this case definitely has that. Ive had the case for about to weeks and the smell is now almost non-existent. It is powerful when first unwrapped, but if you let it air out for a week or two, it will be fine. Quality is what I expected, and the various pockets will be useful. Carrying strap works well. I would get this again, but maybe choose the 16 inch model for a little more space for the computer. Five stars!

I like good, sturdy bags with lots of appropriate sized pockets. Oh, and I like leather bags, too. This one hits all the marks. Yeah, it has an odor when you open it. Walk into any leather store and youll get the same smell. If it bothers you put it in the garage for a week or two and things will be fine. The bag is also aging and softening very well. I wear it over one should rather than cross body and it does just fine -- better than my other bags. Have no fear of this bag.

I dont ever review, but I did a lot of reading before buying this bag. First impressions - fantastic quality, smell is not enough to even get my attention (my dog was excited about the package so it is leather), perfect size for my 13 macbook, enough storage to make me happy - Im a teacher so Im thinking files of papers, a few small books. I will return if issues develop to update, but for the moment - Im excited!

At first there was a mixed up with my order, sent it back and got the correct one, the problem was I wanted permanent buckle straps and I recieved buckles with snap buttons because the picture showed otherwise. Finally did get the correct one and been using it ever since. Love the bag, would definitely buy again if I had to.

The craftsmanship is really impressive. Im greatly pleased by the bag I bought. I had looked for a bag for quite sometime and was reluctant to spend more without being able to touch the bag. I bought this because of it had a lower price point and I thought it would be close. It far exceeded my expectations. The price is well below what it could be! Dont miss out!

This great-looking, convenient, sturdy, natural-in-appearance 15 laptop bag is well-made with good hardware and is plenty roomy for a 14 MacBook Air and various stuff, smells like real leather, which also feels of high quality and Im sure will age nicely. My bag was delivered to me in less than a day. What a score! This is my 2nd one of these, so I know its durable and very functional. The maker, Komal Chaudhari, says the bag matures best when left on its own. Sounds good to me.

UPDATE: Just wanted to add to this, after having used the bag for a bit. Its still lovely and wonderful, still smells like leather (but not to any overwhelming degree -- more like, Oh yes, this really is leather!), still fairly stiff though becoming slightly more flexible as I use it more. Ive carried it almost daily since purchased and nothing has rubbed off on my clothes, nor has it caused any other issues. I mostly bought it because my old bag wouldnt fit my laptop when I needed to carry it. This one fits my 13 laptop nicely in a padded sleeve, with room still to put things in the main compartment. I dont think the color has changed too significantly, but it still looks great. I get compliments on it all the time! ------ I understand that the making of these bags is not an automated process and, I imagine, different purchasers have different experiences, but I cant imagine what others are describing when discussing an overwhelmingly bad odor with these bags. When I opened my bag, my first thought was that it smelled like a new couch (I dont have much leather in my life). Aside from that, the bag is beautiful and solid. I only just got it yesterday and understand that itll soften some with time and use, so the straps that fit into clasps are pretty stiff at the moment, but I imagine after I work them a bit theyll be great. The bag doesnt feel especially oily or anything...again, I dont have much leather in my life, so I dont have much knowledge of what new leather is like, but I know that it is treated prior to sale. I used it while wearing a white skirt today and had no sort of rub-off or residue on my skirt, for whatever thats worth. Sorry Komal, I apparently dont have the language to describe a good leather experience! However, Komals customer service is excellent. I actually bought several bags before this one -- first the 18 inch, which wound up being pretty big/bulky for my 52 female form, and then a 14 inch bag which unfortunately wouldnt fit my laptop because it tapered at the top (which is such a shame, because it was a gorgeous bag!). I spoke with him about the returns and he assured me that theyd be happy to accept them and continue working with me as I found the right bag for me. The 15 bag isnt overwhelming for my size and fits my laptop perfectly, which is typically the largest thing I carry around. It would also fit a binder and/or several books, I believe. The inside is covered with a nice green fabric and has a good number of pockets for those of you who are actually organized. Great purchase, excited to see how it ages!
