S-ZONE Vintage Canvas Messenger Bag Shoulder Bag 14 Inch Laptop Briefcase

I hate writing negative reviews, but I feel obligated to in this case. The bag itself made in China of genuine leather, which looks beautiful. Unfortunately, shoddy manufacturing and poor customer service sink its potential. Major Flaw #1: The latches on this bag WILL BREAK and ARE NOT REPLACEABLE unless provided by the manufacturer. I used the bag 1-2 days per week for the first year I owned it and broke two of them. While under warranty, the manufacturer did eventually replace them (after multi-week delays while they shipped from the warehouse in China). Unfortunately, after the warranty expired, one of the replacements broke and the seller refused to provide or even sell me another replacement latch. I would happily pay for new latches since I already invested in this bag, but they wont let me buy any. My bag no longer latches shut and I cannot do anything about it. If you buy this bag, expect it to break, and understand that you will not find replacement latches once your warranty expires. You have one year. Minor Flaw #1: The strap attachments will also break. They are metal, but they are also flimsy. This isnt as big of a deal since you can find replacement straps, but expect to invest in one if you purchase this bag. Minor Flaw #2: Being cheap leather, the stain and oil was poorly applied. Touching the bag to your clothing will transfer brown pigment to whatever youre wearing, and it will not come out. I ruined clothing this way before realizing it. This can be remedied by thoroughly rubbing the leather with a damp towel for a really long time... or buy not buying this bag. Minor Flaw #3: The stitch work is poorly done. I wouldnt worry about it failing, though, because the latches and strap attachments will break first. Making this more unfortunate is the fact that each of these flaws is easily fixable. The manufacturer could use higher quality hardware for a few dollars more and have a quality product. Likewise, they could offer support for buyers to correct their defective parts. Sadly, they dont, and you should not buy this bag.

For the price, this bag cant be beat. I use it every day, providing in home and in clinic services for multiple clients and this bag goes with me every where. Its large enough to fit several clip boards, file folders, my not so slim 15 laptop, a college text book, kindle, and chargers with ease. There are a few parts of the stitching that are slightly frayed though at this price, Ill call that character.

I have used this bag non-stop for a year and absolutely love it. It fits more than I thought it would and its my dependable bag for laptop, notebook and other supplies I keep with me.

Im a college student and bought this bag to replace my backpack. The bag saw use every day for a few months and it still looks new to me. The pictures however are a bit misleading as the pouch that is holding a water bottle in the photo barely fits my small umbrella, so I dont know how Im supposed to fit a water bottle in that. That was a bit dissapointing. I also have a 15 macbook and that JUST fits. It seems as if the part saying a 15 will fit is a bit of a stretch. I mean it does fit but I REALLY have to focus my effort on slipping it into the laptop slot. Its pretty snug; I cant just quickly throw my laptop in there. Those are just me being picky though. My water bottle might fit if i had a smaller laptop that didnt fully fill the interior space of the bag.

The bag looks great but the design for the front snaps isnt great. After 1 week of my 14 yo using it, one of the snaps ripped through the fabric and came out.

I’ve just received this bag for my daughter so I can’t honestly give a review just yet, but it feels and looks well made hopefully it will last the whole school year, I will review it again in a couple of months

Very durable and can hold a lot (maximum 2 1.5 inch binders and several folders for students). The computer slot leaves a little to be desired for sturdiness, it has a padding on the inside but not for the backing toward the outside of the bag. The pockets on the sides of the bag aren’t as flexible and are too small so can’t hold a thermos/water bottle. But I just use a carabiner to attach it to the buckle anyway. It’s a great bag to invest in though for school and for the space and comfort! I bought another one for my father and he loves the space and organization for his kitchen supplies.

This was exactly what I was looking for. Love the color and fabric. Lols like it will last years.

Great Bag! It is great in every way. Good Quality, good stitching, and most of all great look! the only bummer is that it doesnt fit my 15 MacBook Pro very well. Its too tall to zip the zipper. I did not let that affect the rating since thats not the manufacturers fault. Just an FYI to those thinking about ordering. But I love the bag so much, I dont let that deter me from using it. I just do not zip it. Also, this would be perfect if you do not carry a laptop. If you only carry paperwork - this is a great bag as well.

Holy cow I love this bag!!!!! It’s my favorite bag I’ve ever had and I am the pickiest purse wearer EVER haha! It’s absolutely wonderful and the shoulder pad on the strap?! Ingenious. I’ve seen it before but never had one on my purse and it’s fantastic! Best bag ever thank you!!!!
