Love this one for when I need my essentials only. It's roomier than I expected and looks decently sized against my size 14 body. I got the tan one and I'm impatiently waiting for the restock in black. The leather is smooth, yet sturdy. I like that it maintains it's structure. I wish the straps were removable but I'm glad the strap it comes with it's comfortable.

The Astoria is made of gorgeous, thick leather. I fell in love with the design online, but returned mine because I found the purse to be a little too wide for a crossbody on my 5’2” frame. Another reviewer mentioned that it felt like carrying a plastic box. I get what she meant - it did feel like carrying a (gorgeous leather) box.

I was looking at these for awhile and bought two! I’m so happy I did. They are well made, beautiful, and will last for years and years. Classy, and timeless.

Love everything about this bag, the shape, the size, the strap length. However, the flap closure is quite frustrating when trying to click it closed. It’s quite quickly formed a dented look on the front of the purse due to unsuccessfully trying to click it closed. It prevents me from using the purse as often as I’d like honestly. I wish the placement or size of the button closure was more suitable. For now I mostly stick to my PLG mini tote which is my fave so far.

I adore this bag. There’s plenty of room for all the essentials: phone, sunglasses, lipgloss and small personal items, keys, etc. I can even fit my A5 notebook perfectly with room to spare for my phone and wallet if necessary. The color is so rich and the perfect tan saddle tone. It also has such a nice sheen. I treated with the leather conditioner suggested and it didn’t change the color and when I got caught in the rain the other night, it didn’t show any spots. My only complaint is that there appears to be several tiny spots (unnoticeable, and on the back of the bag) that I didn’t notice until the day after opening it up. They are so tiny You can barely notice them and not at all when wearing it so I didn’t really mind. I’d buy it again. Id love to have a black one, or the saddle bag in the darker chestnut color. It’s a keeper for sure. If you like full grain veg tan leather, you won’t be disappointed. Can’t say enough good things as I have already gotten multiple “where did you get that bag?” compliments. :D happy customer!

Ordered a premium black Astoria. The Astoria is simply beautiful quality. As my mom stated when I showed it to her, "there is no mistaking beautiful leather". I was not disappointed and knew I had to have it. Super rigid and hold everything I carry including a S&W body armor 380.
