What I've Been Looking For (Mostly)
I've been looking for a bag in this format for YEARS. I've even searched through Amazon looking for it. A link on social media to another product featured this bag. (Apparently, it's been available here since 2013.)<br /><br />It's a lot of leather bag for the money. It holds my two sketchbooks, an iPad Pro, and my drawing utensils—tightly.<br /><br />There are two thin pockets inside, with the main compartment. Another pocket on the back with a zipper. The front pocket, not sure what I'd do with that one, but it's there. Personally, I'd like just one big compartment, without the two smaller ones.<br /><br />Construction is okay-to-pretty good. It's a sometimes carry for me right now--when I'm downsizing to just take my sketching stuff and don't need my laptop too. So, I think it will hold up over time for my purposes. As long as you aren't carrying heavy stuff with it, you'll be all right I think.<br /><br />I'd like for it to be an inch or so deeper. They do note that the bag softens up over time, so perhaps that will help--it did arrive VERY STIFF.  (But even then, that's ok.)<br /><br />Again, the price point is key. Competitors' bags run in the hundreds and I think you're still getting a little more than your money's worth here.
