I learned about Lodis, and this bag, from a female executive seated in First Class on a recent flight.  The quality of the bag was evident the moment I saw it and she said that she loved the bag for the year that she's owned it.

Everything about this bag shouts quality.  The black leather is superb and beautifully finished.  The quality and fit of the red piping is perfect, and tastefully done.  The bag is just the right size; not too large, but big enough to hold my wife's laptop, accessories, paperwork, and her various other items that she carries to her clients.  The materials used on the inside of the bag are top-notch and well proportioned.

Overall, the construction of the bag is the equal, of not superior, to that of my Tumi Alpha leather bag.  And, this bag should age beautifully with time.

If you are looking for a bag that will set apart your female professional or executive, this is the one.  She is thrilled with this purchase, and I can heartily recommend Lodis and this bag.
