Review on 👜 RUT CHAS Brown Leather Tote Bag for Women: Satchel Shoulder Handbag - Enhanced SEO by Michael Baker

LOVE - genuine leather with durable stitching, identical to the photos on the product page. Natural color that goes with everything. Great casual vintage style but not too rustic. I think Victorian safari gear or even steampunk style. Plenty of pockets and enough room for an iPad Pro OR a laptop, but not both. Antique brass hardware is a cool heirloom/vintage style without being too shiny or flashy. The smell is a noticeable aroma of natural goatskin, but not as wild (zoo pee - phew!) after months of use. These are whitening accessories (cosmetic bag, etc.) that are placed inside the handbag. The fabric underneath the down is a decent heavy muslin, similar to other bags I've had and should be quite strong, but I don't like the down shedding. The clasp under the decorative bag buckle is not oriented vertically, so the buckle protrudes uncomfortably or sometimes comes loose, making it less secure for valuables and therefore less usable. But nice bag. Not a fan of the logo embossed on the pocket flap. I prefer to show the manufacturer's pride on the inside label, as the name isn't always translated or pronounced "cool" in English. I soaked the pocket flap in leather cleaner and rubbed/rubbed it until the appearance was less noticeable. Overall I am happy with the look and quality of the leather and the issues mentioned only resulted in a one star deduction. I enjoy this bag and would recommend it if anyone is aware of the issues mentioned.
