Love!
"This bag is absolutely amazing.
I've had it for a good 3 months.
I use it everyday for just about everything.
I use it for school.
It can fit my MacBook along with my notebook.
I use it as an overnight bag.
I kinda treat it a bit roughly.
It's survived through a lot and it's still in.
A pretty good condition.
Only one of the wraps on my handles fell off.
That came off after the 1st week I got my bag.
I love, love this bag.
I've received many compliments on it.
It's def my favorite and will be.
For a long while."

Enticing picture florida
"the picture makes the bag look alot better then it actually is.

like a previous review said, it has a wacky pvs material.

The bag does take sometime to break in. heavy usage is probably Not recomended.

other wise it's very spacious and comfy on the shoulders."

Pretty Good
"I absolutely love this bag....I think it is both cute and practical....I use it almost everyday from a bookbag to a overnight bag...the only pronlem that i have with this bag is that the straps that go around the braided handle come off very easily ( i actually jus took mine off)

Other than that this is a great bag very big and roomy"

I GOT SO MANY COMPLIMENTS
"I got this purse for christmas last year after seeing it in the catalog and absolutely LOVED it!! It's big and roomy without being TOO huge. I stuff as many things into my purses that will fit and this bag held up great!! I wore it until summer and it is still in great condition other than the zipper which broke after months of use. It was easily repaired for 5$ by a seamstress. I still continue to switch to my granny satchel despite owning more expensive bags because I just love it. One of my favorite purses of all time."

..Not my cup of tea Michigan
"I bought this bag last year and really liked it when I first got it. The bottom is sturdier than some of the other UO bags I've gotten but it fell apart after only a little while. Two of the four pins that are on the bottom came off and would not go back on and the wrapping around the base of the strap came undone on all four corners. I rarely used it heavily either. The material isn't terrible though and hasn't spotted but I did buy it in black.. The size was somewhat awkward under my arm if I wear it under my shoulder and if I put all my books in it it's very very heavy.
Overall, it's worth the sale price but not worth the regular price and heavy duty usage would ruin it in under a month."

Not Worth It
"I bought this bag about 5 months ago, its a cute bag but it comes with problems. My bag had tape surrounding the braided handles that i had to pull off myself, some of it left a sticky residue. The lining of the bag got holes in it very easy because it is extremely thin, half of the bottom prongs that it sits on fell off and the PVC material the bag is made of rubs off onto and stains my clothing. Overall, its a cute bag but definately NOT worth the money."

Use it EVERYDAY California
"I have this bag in black and although it was rather stiff at first, after several uses it softened up. The braided handles have not fallen apart on me yet and I've used it for several months now. My zipper is also fine. I haven't had a problem with spotting but that's probably because it's black. It's roomy and there are 2 pockets and one zippered pocket inside. Overall it' a great basic bag, matches almost everything and I highly recommend it."

Looks Good in Pictures...Stupid in Person
"This bag looks amazing in photos, so I ordered one right away. However, I was extremely disappointed when it arrived, and I realized it was made out of this cheapy PU material that looks strangely wrinkly. It stains instantly when it contacts something moist or wet, and it juts out from under my arm at an awkward angle. (This also makes it look obviously cheap, because if it were leather it would slouch). I use it as a weekend bag for overnight stays because it does have a nice array of pockets and plenty of room. I also use it as a beach bag because, quite frankly, I don't care what happens to it!

I suggest that you pass on this bag! Save up your money for one of Urban's amazing leather bags (I have one that I've used almost daily for the past 3 years). You'll get much more use from it, it will last much longer, and it will look much better than this werido bag :("

some weird issues with this bag... massachusetts!
Pros: large enough to use as an overnight/weekender, zipper compartment and cell phone holder pocket
Cons: wacky pvc material., not even remotely sturdy or durable

"I bought this bag in Stone about a year ago at an urban in boston massachusetts..I also had problems with the roping around the handle coming undone and the cheap PVC getting spotty and discolored whenever it came into contact with moisture...I had to walk to the train in the rain one afternoon and the spots from the raindrops are still visible...such a strange material. overall a cute bag in theory but not so great for practical use...."

Great everyday bag Boston, MA
"I had the brown one and I loved it! It's a great everyday bag and stores a lot of stuff. It's very big (I'm a big bag girl) but it looks so good! It basically goes with everything. My one warning is that the leather that ties around the handle may unravel and also after a couple months, my zipper fell through. Overall though, it's a great bag to use for a few months!"
