VALENCHI Real Genuine Leather 14" Laptop Messenger Bag/Briefcase For Men & Women (Brown Oily Hunter LB04)

Bought this for my daughter. I was skeptical because it looks nice but sometimes when you buy leather online and you get it, it’s almost like you wonder if it’s actually leather. when you open this you’ll quickly recognize that this piece is made from 100% old school leather, it even has that immediate high quality leather smell. I was very impressed by the quality, and for the price, and the material, and the construction, it’s a great deal.

This is really a nice briefcase. The leather is soft and it has plenty of room for everything.

Great bag! Quality construction soft leather.

This is a really nice bag, and I'm going to keep it, but there are a few design issues you might consider. 1. The flap really limits the bag's capacity because it's designed as if it closes with nothing in the bag. If you put a laptop, thin notebook, and a charging cable in the front pockets, you'll have to stretch the flap and pull kind of hard to get the magnetic catches to line up. They should have made the flap about 1 inch longer so that it can close without any struggle. 2. The strap for the laptop compartment is sewn only to the fabric liner and not the leather so it will likely tear over time. 3. There is inadequate padding for a laptop. You'll find that most laptop bags provide padding for the sides but not for the bottom which is the cause for many laptop repairs when bags are dropped or not set down carefully. This has no padding on the bottom and minimal padding on one side. 4. This is not a flaw but I will mention it as a purchase consideration. There is no handle, only the shoulder strap. Personally, I think it looks better without a visible handle. If I want to carry it with one hand, I'll just clutch the straps together in my palm. It looks better without a handle but if you really must have a handle then you might consider this. I actually bought 2 of these bags: the Cognac Vintage and Black Floater. I initially bought a black one but it got lost in transit, and since it was the last one, I bought the Cognac colored one. This was fine because I had a hard time deciding which to get. However, I saw another black floater pop up a couple of weeks later and decided to get it. Therefore, what I can tell you is that both bags have consistently good quality craftsmanship and leather. The fabric liner seems to be a nice quality. The strap is well done. The stitching is clean and sturdy. It's a real attractive, masculine style bag. I'm naturally an alpha male so I don't like a bad or case that looks feminine. The black one looks professional and sleek while the cognac one looks professional yet kind of rugged. I hope the seller will be willing to fix one thing, so I plan to contact them to request one made with a slightly longer flap or adjustable latch. The bag itself has the width to carry a laptop, couple of books, magazine, and some items in the front pocket but it's the flap that actually prevents it from holding its capacity. The good thing about leather is that you can stretch it a little bit. However, it must be treated with leather conditioner and molded evenly or it will end up looking lumpy. Still, that has only slightly increased the capacity, but it's kind of a struggle to line up the magnetic catches. In any case, there are some relatively good quality messenger bags for a similar price. Some look very similar but this one has just the right look, proportion, and quality so it's a good value at this price point. You have to look at the details though as some much more expensive bags have plastic zippers and use very thin leather over canvas which is overpriced low-quality. This bag is not like that and does not skimp on the leather. Overall, this is a very good purchase.

Sturdy, feels amazing, and looks great. My laptop fits perfectly inside and it feels like it'll hold up for a really long time. Something not visible in the images is that the straps are even lined with canvas, which is a nice touch. My only criticisms are the rigidity of the shoulder pad (which I assume will form to my shoulder with enough use) and that the smell is a bit strong. When you open it up, the smell of leather conditioner is a bit like a slap in the face, so I may leave it somewhere ventilated for a few days. Overall, very pleased with my purchase.

Durable bag

I use this bag every day to carry my laptop and papers to work -- it is well made with a beautiful slightly distressed leather. If you don't like bags that have a flap that snaps, this won't work for you -- but for me it is very helpful because I don't have to struggle to get items out quickly at a meeting. There are some zippered pockets that do help, of course, if you're traveling and wanting to keep some items a little more hidden. I wear this strapped across my torso for running through airports or going to work -- it is just very convenient and quite roomy, but professional, too.

I brought the bag for my son and he said he loves it. He carries it for work. It’s not bulky and looks great. Arrived quickly and was packed well. He loves the quality of the leather.

A really beautiful item. The smell of the leather when you open it will bring satisfaction. Well made and looks amazing. Lots of space for laptop, cables, battery pack and other stuff that we think we need to lug around! I'm really happy with this product.
