HULSHVintage Leather Briefcase for Men - Large Pocket Messenger Bag, 17 Inch Laptop Satchel, Genuine Brown With Rustic Look - Best for Gifts

I needed to replace my current work bag and wanted something that was strong and would last a for a long time. Having looked online at all the available bags, I decided the Hulsh vintage leather briefcase/messenger bag was right for me. It was delivered quickly and I could immediately see it was suitable for my needs. I was aware that some of these bags have an inherent odour but this didn't appear to be at all strong. A spray and wipe down on the outside of the bag, using a kitchen cleaner and a spray inside with a fabric cleaner immediately took away any odour. I have been using the bag for two weeks now without any problems and from the quality of the material and fixtures I cannot see why it should not continue to give good service for years to come. Very please with the product.

The bag is indeed well made and the leather seems to be good quality, but I have to say it smells more like the cowshed than the cow... I have tried washing the inside and airing outside (because we can't keep it in the house).. but the smell won't go away.. it is actually an embarrassment walking around smelling like you need to be jet washed.. I would avoid on this basis

The product itself looks great. BUT the smell is unbearable. It's been already a week since I v got it. I try to air it and do all recommend stuff. It smells like a zoo. The odour makes it unusable. I hoped it would go away but doesn't look like it will ever happen.

This is a nice bag and I was looking forward to using it. But first time out on my way to London the shoulder strap clasp broke and the bag fell to the ground with my laptop inside. Didn’t even have much inside it either. Very disappointed.

Only used this bag once (today), it had my Surface and a few bits of paper in, so not very heavy. The strap broke as shown and the bag fell on the floor.Very disappointed.

Not happy as is now damaged through normal use

Love the look & feel of this bag. Good storage. Nice firm shape.

When I ordered this bag I was not expecting much considering its initial price of US$67.99. When I received it I was surprised at the quality and utility of it. The stitching is top-notch. It has, count them, 8 separate compartments! A padded middle compartment large enough for my 17.3 inch laptop with room for additional padding foam if you choose, 3 large zippered compartments, 5 additional storage sections, quick-opening latches that anchor its front straps and it has a shoulder strap. The leathery smell lingers for quite a while but Mr. Anshul Purohit (company president) assures us that it goes away.. after a few weeks. I ordered this out of Yonkers, NY and it arrived quite speedily. I recommend it.Update 07/17/21:I was able to get rid of the pungent leather smell by spraying the entire bag (inside/out) with 91% isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. At first, I was reluctant but did a test on the back of the bag and it worked. The bag turned a shade darker as Mr. Purohit promised would happen over time (a "few" weeks) but the rubbing alcohol (91%) quickened the process to just a couple of days.

El producto es exactamente como se describe, el olor es agradable.Material resistente

En el primer uso, se rompió la hebilla de la correa

Incredible quality! So excited to break this bag in. Recieved it unharmed and in perfect condition!
