Exposed rivets securing the cinch buckle could rub against and scratch devices stored nearby, although this did not trouble the reviewer. The bag has no internal dividers, but it includes a large pocket sewn into the back for additional organization. The bag’s pockets are unlined, leaving raw leather visible throughout their interiors.
The crossbody strap uses two adjustable segments and can be set from 44 to 52 inches in one-inch increments. The reviewer fit an iPad Mini in the large back pocket, though it protruded slightly above the top.
Reported strengths
- The structured bag holds its shape, making the contents less likely to tumble around whenever the reviewer picks it up.
- The bag uses polished, thick full-grain leather pieces joined with high-quality thread and stitching.
- The bag has no internal dividers, but it includes a large pocket sewn into the back for additional organization.
Reported trade-offs
- The cinch buckle requires space beside the bag during opening because its clasp is relatively long.
- Exposed rivets securing the cinch buckle could rub against and scratch devices stored nearby, although this did not trouble the reviewer.
- The reviewer found the bag hung somewhat low because the crossbody strap remained too long at its shortest setting.
