Review on ๐Ÿ‘œ Premium Distressed Leather Messenger Bag - 13" Laptop Case & Office Briefcase for Men - Stylish Gift and Functional Shoulder Bag by William Byrd

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good case with quality control issues

This is a good case for 11 inch laptop or Chromebook. Tyhe's description says it fits a 13 inch laptop. I wouldn't do that because it might damage the bag or laptop. This bag has some amazing quality control issues. First, the upper right and left corners of the main compartment were not finished with a top lip. This was first noticed because the color was lighter than the rest of the bag. Upon closer inspection, I saw that the very thin skin had come loose and the stitching was beginning to unravel. This was corrected with a pencil to set the paint and seam sealing to seal the end and prevent the seam from coming loose. Fortunately, this defect was discovered before the seam was stressed. In some places on the strap, the leather, which feels like thin tissue paper, is starting to peel off. That was before I even started using the bag. Finally, the two parts of the shoulder strap are adjusted so that the buckle rests directly on the person's shoulder or neck when fastened together. It would be a big improvement if the buckle was padded (there wasn't any) or if one part of the belt was much shorter than the other, which keeps the belt buckle from touching the actual shoulder. The overall look of the bag is very good and the dark green color of the inside is a nice contrast to the light green of other bags, but the workmanship and lack of quality control were disappointing.

Pros
  • Glitter
Cons
  • Long wait
