This was a gift.  The person I gave it to is a vegetarian and will not use animal products unless absolutely necessary.  Instructions were to get a black purse that was not leather.

I picked up several and this one was one of the nicest.  Well made.  Buckles and loops were well put together.

In my unbiased and absolutely on influenced opinion as I am not swayed by famous names, I think this looks better than many of the extremely expensive bags.  It looks good, wipes with a cloth.  Wears well.  Has tons of living room.

This bag was a home run in terms of use function and appearance
