Review on 👜 Upgrade: Authentic Full Grain Leather Men's 16 Inch Laptop Briefcase Messenger Bag Tote Satchel with YKK Metal Zippers by Corey Evans

I've been looking for leather bags for a long time because I need/want to replace the branded backpack. I carry a large 17-inch HP Z Book laptop (Measurements: 16.37 x 10.7 inches, 1.33 inches, Weight: 8.48 pounds), so finding something to fit was a challenge. My laptop fits very well in this bag. I really love how simple this bag is - I think it looks great. Fits comfortably in my large laptop. There's some padding, but not tons. It doesn't bother me too much because I'm not going to throw my bag roughly. Inside there is enough space for a laptop, my charger, some pens and headphones. I don't carry anything other than a cell phone, which I put in the outer pockets. You could probably get a little tutorial or some folders too. I like to pack only the essentials in my bag. In general the design is good. The shoulder strap is comfortable enough (again, my bag isn't loaded) and the metal clasps feel solid enough. The inner lining could be better, but overall it's good. The skin is comfortable, very beautiful color (I have dark brown). Others have reported a strong leather smell - I can confirm that too, but it's not too bad, especially after a day or so. The zippers are ok but I have found them to scratch my laptop. If the hole were a little bigger, there would be no problems. As I mentioned before, my laptop is big, so I'm sure that plays its part. This bag meets my criteria: simple yet professional looking without the huge pockets and straps that other leather bags have. My laptop fits. I'm not much more than that. I would recommend.
