I buy high quality bags but I won’t pay crazy prices for them. I LOVE animal print. When I saw this bag I gasped. When I saw the price I held my breath. When I saw the good reviews I almost had a panic attack (LOL). I figured the quality would be below what I am used to but I took the chance.
The bag doesn’t have the bells and whistles I am used to, however for the price I paid (less than $28 including S&H) it looks like it cost a lot more. As others have mentioned, my zippers also stick and I don’t see the inner pockets holding up for a great length of time because the lining is thin and may easily stain, but for the price I will get my money’s worth.
Also, I’m not sure if other reviewers realize the bag can be converted into a tote or bucket. If you snap the snaps into the bucket style, the top zipper area completely closes the entire bag. You have to have the side snaps snapped together closing the right and left sides. In my opinion the bag looks the best in the bucket style. The tote style didn’t look good to me. This bag is large, but not as large as the bag I currently carry. The bucket bag I am carrying now is just as wide as this bag but 3 - 4 inches taller.
I got more than what I paid for so I can’t complain.

In case you need some more details, here is a full description and review of authentic designer bags:
In this review of authentic designer bags, I am going to show you both the good and the bad. After all, what is a review without some honesty, right? First, I have to tell you upfront that authentic designer bags is my favorite choice. Sure, there are other products in the same class, but frankly, none of them as good (in terms of quality). I do have to say this though. some other products may be better, but based on quality and price, authentic designer bags is the clear winner.

I was surprised at the bargain buy I got on thos leather bag. It was well worth the purchase. You know the old saying you get what you pay for, but in this case its true. I would recommend this leather bag to anyone looking for an item like this with a low cost.

The bag is beautiful and soft, but has a very strange, strong odor that is not going away. I have researched online and it seems the odor is from the tanning process used on the leather.
However, what I REALLY would not recommend is purchasing this product from Creative Products. I was asked to review them as a seller and put much the same review as above. Then I was contacted by this seller and was TOLD to remove my prior feedback, even though they agreed with my observation that the bag had a strange odor from the tanning process. I was instructed that this was a place for review of their services and not a product review. I perceived the email as very pressuring. As I scrolled through their feedback, I noticed this was their response to most neutral/negative feedback. I think it’s very poor customer service that they are more concerned with their status on Amazon than customer satisfaction and the quality of the products they sell. I wished to change my feedback of them as a seller to negative because I will not do future business with an entity that instructs me on how to leave an opinion. That is very condescending treatment of your customers.
However, I removed the feedback with the hopes to leave new feedback. Creative Products is probably aware that once feedback is removed, a buyer cannot leave new feedback. I was not aware of this when I removed my feedback, although I should have guessed when Amazon encouraged me not to delete feedback even if pressured by a seller. This left me with a very negative impression of Creative Products.

This bag lasted me a very long time before I replaced it with another Travelon bag. It was this one that got me hooked on Travelon. I love the amount of pockets that all of their across the shoulder bags have, and i really love the cell phone pocket on this one. It made my phone very easily accessible. The strap was simply amazing. It was very thick and durable and never ripped off like on another Travelon bag I’ve owned. The whole diagonal strap thing was a little annoying, but other than that no complaints. I liked how it was adjustable. I love the flap because it keeps everything safe, but the magnet was horrible. It eventually broke up and there was only 1 so the flap would bounce around in an annoying manner. Apparently the new ones have two magnets that are on the inside of the material, though, so maybe that’s an improvement in comparison to the older one I own. The material itself held up for a very long time before it started to frey, and I really love the shiny black look. It’s minimalistic, yet still very stylish and stood the test of time before the magnet came off.
After this bag, I’ve owned 3 other Travelon bags and I highly recommend this brand. Other purses I’ve owned always broke right away or the material got really dirty and ripped/frayed very quickly. the material on Travelon bags is not only durable, it’s easy to clean. Once I got a bunch of coffee and dirt on this bag, but I simply took a clean wet-nap and wiped it clean and the purse looked good as new!
the amount of pockets is awesome and I love all the compartments for how small these purses usually are. I can’t wait for new Travelon bags to come out because they are always unique and have different features. They also sell at reasonable prices.
