Review on πŸŽ’ Polare Leather Vintage College Backpack: Classic Style for the Modern Student by Michelle Davis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Functional and high quality

First of all this backpack is beautiful and the quality is fantastic. The leather is thick enough to feel durable, yet flexible and lightweight to wear. I love the vintage look of the leather, it looks "worn" and dull, it gives it a special character. I bought this bag to use for traveling and carrying baby stuff and will soon be using it as a diaper bag. All backpacks advertised as diaper bags were of lower quality and similarly priced and I did quite a bit of research before purchasing. I am very happy with my choice. It fits quite a bit, my 16 inch laptop fits in it easily. I like to carry a Lifefactory glass water bottle and 2 baby bottles and they go great with everything else I carry. I have attached a photo of three different clasps to the outside of the bag. The front center pocket has a traditional belt buckle closure, the 2 side pockets have magnetic snaps and the main flap has a snap (with drawstring) closure. Inside the bag is a zipped pocket big enough for my wallet. A men's bi-fold wallet will definitely fit, and in my case a small women's wallet. What made me very happy is the D-ring on the inside. I like to use it to hook the carabiner on my car keys so I don't have to dig through the bottom of my bag. The straps are adjustable and comfortable. Overall I believe this bag will last for years if not decades. The great thing about leather is that it only tears at the seam. In the event the stitching wears down with use, it would be worth taking it somewhere to have it repaired (or repair it myself in my case).
