Review on πŸ‘œ Chic and Practical: KAVU Original Cotton Crossbody Sling Women's Handbags & Wallets by Paul Monzon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

to see which one I liked the most. Cotton Canvas

So after thinking about different prints and materials for a few days, I ordered 4 bags of Kavu rope. One in each article to see which one I liked the most. Cotton canvas, polyester canvas, lighter polyester and PU coated cotton. This review is for Everglade tiled cotton canvas hence the 3 stars. I really liked the bag, but it wasn't very well made. The zippers are pretty cheap. Here is my full description of each material. Lightweight polyester with Arrows print. Cheap zippers and the hard, pointy plastic cover meant to enclose and seal the ropes at the top pierce the top of the bag where it meets the top of the ropes. The material is not thick enough to pierce this sharp end. Compared to the other three bags, this one was the least durable and the cheapest. The cotton canvas (this review) was too light (Everglades tiles) and a bit stiff and I can't get over the fact that it's not waterproof and that other reviewers said their canvas has faded so I'm sending those back too. Then there's the PU cotton cover that I got in the black and brown python print. It's ok, but again too hard and yes. Also, I thought it would be a safe print in a muted color, but that doesn't make me happy. Send back. Now finally the polyester canvas I received in Mojave printing. That's love! The bag is well made, it is strong but not too stiff, the colors are right, it is waterproof and there are no annoying small parts! The bag itself is the perfect size for me. I was worried it would be too big and bulky for me but that's spot on! I plan to use it for travel but I might want to test it first ;). Also, so many reviewers have complained that the front pockets don't fit their iPhone and I don't know what the heck they're talking about! The small top one might be too small for an iPhone, but the bottom one will probably fit the larger iPhone 7 Plus. There is a lot of space! I look forward to this bag becoming my favorite!

Pros
  • The original adventure organizer. The rope bag is designed to make your day more comfortable. Two main pockets for clothes or water bottles, one inner zip pocket and two front pockets for cell phones, wallets and other essentials. Carry it for a hike or get ready for a great day at the beach - with the KAVU Rope Bag, fun is never in season!
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
