dieselbag - designer bags catalog

This bag makes an excellent carry-on, stowing well under the seat. It can also be a great bag for a weekend trip. I took my mother for an overnight trip and it held all of both our things quite nicely. The bag was bigger than I expected. Even with my hair dryer, I could fill the bag only about half full. I have not used it. I chose instead to use a smaller bag which held all my cosmetics, but not the hair dryer. I know that we have a good return policy; but with shipping and the restocking fee, I would receive very little in the return. I will see if a friend can use the bag. I only used it for a two week vacation and already one of the seams has begun to unravel. Other than that, I liked all the pockets and thought the size was perfect. Provides ultra-organization for your toiletries and includes a free cosmetic tote.

The feel and look of the leather on this bag is terrific, as is the construction. I love the way it is organized and I can always find whatever I want in the bag. The design is good looking and all the hardware is attractive. My only complaint is the Velcro closure between the front and rear compartments. It does not stay closed. I will need to have this bag repaired/modified in order to wear it with confidence that my cell phone and glasses won''''t fall out! I travel monthly and the Perlina backpack bag I was using wasn''''t big enough for my trips-this bag is. I just got back and am pleased to say that everything fit just fine-glasses-three pairs, keys, wallet, lipsticks, 2 small books, etc. I really like THIS bag (and I''''ve tried many!) It''''s roomy; its deep; it has a section for my phone; it has credit card slots; it even has a small leather.

I have had four other briefcases before this and this is the best because it is light and not too bulky, but it can expand alot when you stuff it. I took it on a trip to spain with the matching 22 inch upright carry-on suitcase (see my other testimonial on that one), and it works great with that. You can put the handle up through the flap on the back and carry them together, or you can strap it on the back of the suitcase (I prefer the latter, it balances the load perfectly and it is easier to take off everytime you go through security). The strap is comfortable and the bag lays nice and flat when it only has my computer in it. Looks great too!
