Review on ๐Ÿ‘œ Sak Silverlake Crossbody Tbl Floral: Stylish and Functional Women's Handbags & Wallets in Crossbody Bags by Christine Jensen

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Having bought "SAK " bags in the past, this was a BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!

**1.** PLEASE READ THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS AS YOU LEARN SO MUCH FROM THEM! If all buyers say the same thing, then there's something to it. **Secondly** I would like to clarify the "100% Genuine Leather" description. I took my bag to our local shoe fair and was told it was "real leather". If you google "real leather" you will read that this is basically the part of the skin that remains after all the "good" pieces of leather have been removed. Some cheap bag makers have basically found a gold mine that allows them to use the term "real leather" to inflate the price and float around their bags. Wood. It is shredded, glued, rolled and "stampedโ€ with a pattern resembling real skin. It won't last long, it will start peeling and falling apart because it has no strength. I'd rather buy a good quality faux leather bag that will last a long time than a real leather bag that falls apart quickly. So, yes, this is "real" leather, but THIS IS NOT QUALITY LEATHER! DON'T WET THESE BAGS, think about what happens to wet cardboard. **3.** This pack has small pieces of stitching all over. I bought a black bag and the protruding white stitching is very noticeable. This can be seen in own photos of the back and bottom of the bag. I only noticed it when I bought the bag. The opening of the pocket under the flap is VERY NARROW. I couldn't comfortably fit my Galaxy Note 10 Plus as the case was over 10 inches wide and my slim phone is 6.7 inches. The strap is made of nylon and is too wide to comfortably carry over the shoulder, especially with the large metal buckles that hold it together. As a shoulder bag I think if you don't mind the bag touching your waist and feeling it rise under your arm then you're fine. I'm 5ft 2" and 190lbs and it was just uncomfortable and I love shoulder bags so I bought this to wear crossbody. I sent the bag back and I have to say that this is the first bag from 'SAK' and I was really disappointed. I paid $69 for this bag not even 2 months ago and now it has grown to almost $100? ABSOLUTELY NOT WORTH THE MONEY IF FOR NO OTHER REASONS THIS IS GENUINE LEATHER AND THE CHEAPEST LEATHER YOU CAN BUY AND DON'T CONTINUE.

Pros
  • Pleasing
Cons
