## Questions & Answers

**Q: Ok id relly like to order this bag but will i be able to fit my alienware 17.3" laptop into it? this is a must for me to by,whats the largest you make**
A: The bag opens up hugeLike an accordion in a way,  the leather folds on the side making it look smallerI would not personally thibk it would have issues with any laptop

**Q: How will this bag hold up in rain?**
A: It's a very durable bag due to it being goat, however it gets a faint wild smell to it in the rain, personally not enough to not make the purchase. Overall I believe it to be a great bag for the price. I give it a B due to not rolling the exposed edges on some of the areas and not double stitching it under, and also splicing some of the leather straps together instead of using one whole piece. I would also recommend shoulder padding to be incorporated (had no issues so far) and a full padded bottom instead of just the center, and brass eyelets for the buckle eyes and drawstring eye holes, but I really do LOVE the bag, and it's getting a proper breaking in on a Europe tour, it has so much room. I hope this helped

**Q: Would something like this be suitable as a bugout bag? I look to hold first aid, a change a clothes and some other items.**
A: I don't know what a bug out bag is but this is a bigger stylish bag that can hold alot. Medical stuff and a change of clothes will fit fine...jus don't pull to hard on leather draw string, mine broke but luckily it came long enough to not matter, it still ties up and secures.

**Q: How do you get rid of the weird smell**
A: I put mine in a bag in the freezer for about a week, then hung it outside for a few days. The smell is from the tanning solution that they use. It does come back if it gets damp. But it has been a great backpack for travelling light.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Backpack
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 24 June 2019*

I both this backpack for a present and it is absolutely perfect for both traveling and school.I like the vintage style and the well-organized set of pockets. Big enough, with great vertical storage that allows you to pack-up a heavy load and to fit a laptop together with other belongings. The size is suitable for a carry-on bag for air travel and it's not much heavy, although looks like it is. The leather is thick, with a nice natural caramel-brown/cognac color. Looks durable, hope it is indeed and will stand the test of time. Excellent value for money.The only drawback is the packaging - the backpack was tightly compressed. I had to remove the packaging, to stuff the backpack tightly and leave it like this for a couple of days so the leather could stretch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly good!
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 29 September 2022*

I was nervous about ordering this rucksack, brown leather for £50? Bound to be rubbish but I couldn't have been more wrong. The leather is thick, the item is well made and a good size. I am really pleased with this rucksack and will be using it when travelling. If I'm being picky, it could do with being slightly wider to balance it out, but once it's softened up and worn in it will be fine. Delivery was not great, the rucksack was folded into a clear plastic bag so you could see the item. That's fine, except when the delivery driver leaves it on your front door step because your out! Thankfully it wasn't nicked. In summary, great leather rucksack for the money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent backpack. Well recommend
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 16 November 2025*

Fast delivery. Excellent backpack. Has served me well on several holidays. Well recommend.
