Review: The strap is a little on the thin side and it seems like it may not last as long as the rest ... - I have an desertcart Prime addiction so it's rare that I ever sit down and review one of the many products I purchase, but this thang is worth it. I want to go ahead and get my one complaint out of the way, but it's really the only thing. The strap is a little on the thin side and it seems like it may not last as long as the rest of the bag will, but a) I could be wrong, and b) this is a nice enough bag that if it breaks you'll either just get another strap to replace it or have it repaired or something. Things I like: -It fits my 15.6" laptop; I wasn't expecting this. Almost every other bag I've had that says it fits a 15" laptop (which 15.6" laptops are regularly advertised as) meant that it fits a 15" laptop, not a 15.6" laptop. I don't even know if 15" laptops are actually made. I'm thinking specifically of the laptop compartment in a Jansport backpack that I have that comes SO close to getting this dumb HP Pavilion G6 in, but can't quite do it. This, on the other hand, has ample room. Pleasant surprise there - I don't really expect to be using it to transport my laptop too much, but it's awesome to know that it can. -It's gorgeous. 'Nuff said. -It's fair-trade leather, and sustainably produced. Call me a hippie, but I care about that kind of stuff, so, yeah. -Aside from the strap, it seems like it'll hold up for a very, very long time. I'm gonna treat it right as I carry it with me throughout my college days and maybe one day give it to a kid. -It's not THAT masculine. I'd consider it gender neutral. First day I brought it to work with me, a female coworker immediately asked where I got it when she saw it, and said it was exactly what she was looking for (she could tell it was genuine leather too). If you're a lady who's looking for something like this, don't let that dumb advertising line deter you. I kind of wish it had pen/pencil pockets inside it like some other bags I've used - instead it's just got those deep inner pockets, but that's a design choice, not a flawed component, so that and the strap don't really merit taking a star off. 9/10, easy. Would buy again, but I don't foresee the need. I think it'll last a good long while. Review: Way better than I expected based on some reviews! - UPDATE (03/19/2023) I don’t use this bag for every day use anymore (because I work from home) but I still use it to haul my laptop around and it is still in fantastic condition. I STILL swear by this bag and it had not had a single rip or tear, even if it is almost five years old. Still LOVE this bag and will be coming back to buy again when this one finally takes its last breath. ____ Last Update (01/31/2020) I just wanted to pop back in and update my review after nearly two years of use. This bag continues to be my daily bag, has survived this long of daily wear and tear and it is still going strong. It was definitely worth the price I paid for it and I will be purchasing it again once this one finally wears out. Even after spilling oil on it (don't ask) I still get compliments on it regularly. I cannot express how much I love this bag. ______ OLD REVIEW: By all the reviews you'd think that people don't understand what leather is supposed to smell like, or that it some outrageously awful chemical smell. It smells like leather, even my dog can't stop sniffing it, if anything it's a testament to the materials that were used. That being said, it's the perfect size, not bigger or smaller than expected. It will fit my books for school and laptop, or whatever else I need to fit in here (maybe just not all of them at once!), good green canvas material is used for the interior, there are two zipper compartments on each side, and three divided sections. So happy with this purchase! ## Features - ✅ DIMENSIONS... 15.6 x 11 x 4 inch (LxHxW).

There are many things on the market to preserve or waterproof leather. Mink Oil (lanolin & silica) is a good preservative and is water resistant. For true waterproofing, get Sno Bol, (made from beeswax) it is perfect. Apply it to your leather shoes (and soles) and your feet will never feel wet again. Perfect for a dry day in work boots under the worst conditions. Be forewarned though, in the process it will definitely darken the leather. You should test it first if that bothers you. The effect is darker, richer, softer, a satiny sheen, an aged effect. The differences between imperfections and good leather will be accentuated. All that and weatherproof too, What more could you want? How to?: Turn your oven on to it's lowest setting (about 150 degrees), Cover everything leather with a good layer of sno bol, Turn oven off, Pop in the oven for about 15 minutes, (This will cause most or all beeswax to soak into the leather Rub off all excess wax and polish the leather. It should look that satiny sheen. If it feels too waxy, repeat the oven to polish steps again with no wax. This does not interfere with leathers nat.'al ability to 'breath'. You work shoe men will appreciate that. **Q: How does this bag fasten?** A: There is no fastening. The flap is long enough so it is not necessary. I was very pleased with the quality and my nephew loves it. **Q: Will this hold a laptop that is 15" wide? Asking as the bag itself is 15" wide so it seems that a laptop of that width may not fit.** A: NO! I have a Toshiba Satellite C55A and it does NOT fit. It measures exactly 15 inches across. You have to angle it and it bulges out at the sides and will not accommodate a sleeve. **Q: should I get this bag for a 13.3 inch macbook or go for the 13 in one?** A: I'm not sure what the 13 in one is, so I can't help there. But I can say that I use my 15" MacBook in this messenger bag and it works well. Would a 13.3" MacBook work well with this bag? I'm sure it would obviously fit, but you'd have to watch that because it's a little smaller it might fall out of it more easily. There is a velcro "securer" for your lap top within the bag to help keep it from falling out, but I found that after a time it didn't close as securely as I would like. So there might be some risk over time. Hope this helps. I like the bag. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The strap is a little on the thin side and it seems like it may not last as long as the rest ... *by L***E on April 18, 2015* I have an Amazon Prime addiction so it's rare that I ever sit down and review one of the many products I purchase, but this thang is worth it.

So happy with this purchase! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow! This bag is gorgeous! *by P***R on August 13, 2016* UPDATE: after owning this for a year the bag is softer and higher looking than when I first received it. It gets a very nice patina with age. I did treat with a coat of Dr Martens Wonder Balsam when first received and let it soak in for a few days. That's a natural beeswax product that helps to preserve and soften the leather. Very happy with this purchase. I just received my order and it far exceeds my expectations. The bag is extremely well made and beautifully hand crafted. It's the kind of naturally tanned leather that looks like it will soften up nicely, and develop a beautiful patina with use and age. The color is rich and very much as represented in the photos (see mine attached). I'm going to put a protective layer of oil on it before starting to use it, as full grain leather is porous, with all of the natural grain showing. It is refined enough to use for business or more casually; the design is classic, simple, and elegant. I like that the strap is sturdy and attached to the bag with brass rivets and reinforced stitching. As a side note, I read other reviews here that cited odd smells, thin straps, weak magnets, and a host of other concerns that gave me pause. However, none of these caveats turned out to be true. As I shopped on Amazon, I found versions of this bag distributed by several vendors, but this one from Rustic Town had more pictures showing the details, and came with free returns; so no risk. It seemed to be from a company that went out of its way to be transparent about the product, and stands behind it. I'm guessing that they are actually monitoring the quality control out of their supplier's factory. I would absolutely buy from them again. I think this bag is an incredible value, and worth twice the price or more. I rarely write reviews, but this product blew me away. ## Frequently Bought Together - RUSTIC TOWN 15 inch Vintage Crossbody Genuine Leather Laptop Messenger Bag - Blofinche Laptop Messenger shoulder bag: Genuine Leather work Briefcase 13.3 15.6 inch designer handbag - RUSTIC TOWN 14" Leather Messenger Bag for Men & Women – Full Grain Vintage Crossbody Satchel – Fits 13.3"/14" Laptop – Ideal Briefcase for Work, Travel & College – Adjustable Shoulder Strap --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/7088325-15-inch-messenger-bag](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/7088325-15-inch-messenger-bag) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-10-12*
