WILD WEST– Popular Leather Travel Bag

This is such a luxurious and beautiful bag. I look forward to packing just so I can use it. It's got lots of pockets and a decent amount of space. It isn't overly big so I did need another bag. The bag seems of good quality as well. No stitching issues or inconsistencies. The zippers all zip smoothly.

The Northridge Leather 21-Inch Leather Shoe Duffel came flat in a storage bag (see pic). Inside the duffel was a shoulder strap and a luggage tag.

The feet were taped over to protect them during shipping.

The luggage tag came without an internal card to fill out.

The shoulder strap was scratched up and corroded on one end. It doesn't look like the loop it connects to was similarly problematic, so I am unsure how that might have happened.

On the outside of the bag, there were two small zipper pockets on the front.

There was also an area that bulged out. It is held closed by two straps. Once opened, there are two individual pockets inside.

On the right side, there is a shoe pocket with two zippers.

Once inside, there is a zippered pocket on one side and a couple non-zippered pockets on the other side.

I expected it to smell like leather; but the inside instead had a faint scent that can only be described as a popular air freshener.

Overall, the bag feels sturdy and well constructed. The scratches on the strap are one thing, but the corrosion makes me a bit nervous. It makes me think all the other brass components are likely to do the same. However, since this was corroded on opening, might be a quality control issue.

Love this bag, use it for travel and everyday use - it is large and spacious with many useful pockets. The leather has a very sleek finish. Thinking of getting another for my son!

I was amazed at the quality and workmanship that went into this bag. If your looking for a first class carry, this is a great one.
