This is a very nice bag.

This is a great bag and really looks excellent quality. My last carry on was destroyed during transit and I currently only have luggage that would have to be checked baggage so I knew I needed to purchase a carry-on so I was ready to travel, I also figured this bag would be convineint as I am a model and actress and often need to take lots of clothing options on set. This bag looks like a nice quality leather bag which is already exactly what I wanted - I didn't want something that looked cheap. It's a thin type of leather ( or maybe this is just how buffalo leather is ) so that with nothing in the bag it lies pretty flat and is like a couple notches thicker than cotton. I haven't used this bag yet but I can assume it will be very durable and last me a while but honestly for such a low price if I got three uses out of it I would feel it was worth it. As for the smell, it has a typical leather smell . it doesn't smell like something is dying or rancid , it just smells like leather. I'm not sure why people are so put off by this as it is a leather bag - but I did purposely buy it before I needed it so the bag could \air out\" but honestly that isn't entirely necessary."

Really nice bag,functional

Great bag stylish and roomy! Does it have a smell yes! LOL.. But I still gave it 5 stars. What worked best for me to get rid of the smell is throw a couple of dryer sheets inside a few of the pockets and after a couple of days the dryer sheets will absorb the smell and you will be good to go!

Bad Smell!!
