I was lucky to find this site while looking for a bag similar to the one Indiana Jones carried, and I found myself enamored with this bag's vintage design. I've been using it for a couple of months and it's not only proven to be stylish but also very practical; I spend a fair bit of my time in libraries and cafes, and this bag can hold my laptop (I have a 15.6" IdeaPad), several books, and my sketchpad,, in addition to my phone and laptop chargers and other small items - everything I need to spend several hours at a cafe without having to carry multiple bags or having to go without desired items. The buckles, zippers, and buttons are easy to open and close, while still being sturdy enough to keep everything secure inside. The shoulder strap is also very well designed, I'm able to walk around with the bag hanging from my shoulder without it digging into me like previous shoulder bags I've owned.

The reception I've gotten to this bag has been universally positive, with many people commenting their approval on it ranging from members of my family to strangers who notice it. The initials on the front give off an aura of sophistication, and it's impossible not to feel like a globetrotting archeologist while it's hanging by my side!

I will also add that the customer service from JAALD was excellent, I was contacted after I made the order with advice on the ideal engraving/embossing choice, and the chat service was very quick and efficient in answering follow-up queries that I had.

Beautifully made and well crafted. Love the mindful side pockets and the well thought out compartments. I replaced the shoulder strap and have received many compliments! Highly recommend !!

This bag is very well built. Great materials and it looks so good. I really wanted a portrait style bag vs a landscape and this bag is beautiful. great storage and great look.
