I own a Saddleback briefcase very similar to this one - absolutely love it. I travel a lot (200 days per year) and get compliments frequently on the bag and the appearance. You can't go wrong with Saddleback.
I've got the large briefcase. It is everything Dave says it is. If someone gave a bad review, it's because it was a knock off. You could drag it behind a car with your laptop in it and the bag will keep all the parts in it till you stopped 3 states over! Saddleback bags are the best! You will only by it once!
Suzette Munson Hi Dave, I was going to buy 2 seperate bags from you guys last week but after seeing and hearing so many awful stories regarding your bags and the customer service it has sadly deterred me. I read somewhere that the ''Stainless steel hardware'' has nicks and pucks in it and your response was that's how it is.. also the leather bags most reviews seem to show really bad quality, I just find that the price you charge people are not refelected in your products.
Splootan If you're looking for a cookie cutter bag that'll still look perfect after 3 months, you've been looking in the wrong place. The bags imperfections are part of what make them so cool and what makes them age so well.
Thanks for the tip Yakov. Just ordered a front pocket backpack from Dave and his Crew.This makes SEVEN items I've bought from him over the past five years or so.Great stuff.Only my Wife of 37years has remained more beautiful and durable.....;)
Recommend you use the two other straps when traveling. It will distribute the weight across the bag and put less strain on the center strap, extending the wear and tear.
Thank you, I might try that sometime. My main concern has always been ease of access. However, my load is a lot lighter now that I got a new solid state laptop!
I really wish Saddleback would use veg tanned leather rather than chrome tanned. The leather does not wear like true saddle leather over time. Still great design but made for mass production.
I look forward to the leather milk video. How often do you think i should apply it to my bag? Once a year? Every two years? Have you noticed the bag getting dryer between applications?
MyFireVideos my bag did seem a little dried out but it came back to life with the Leather Milk. There wasn't any cracking and I don't think it was damaged by not cleaning it more frequently. Other people are saying they clean and condition their bags every 6 months. There's another TH-camr who has a 5 year review of his Saddleback bag and he says he uses Leather Milk every 6 months and his bag looks great!
THis bag looks disgusting. Zero style. This company is 100% aimed at The American market who do not know any better. The quality of the leather is not the best. The hardware is not the best. The stitching is not the best. The French house Berluti is where my heart is.

Thanks for your comment, Daniel! Maybe I'll see you on the road (or in the air) sometime... :)

Any chance you'll have that 7-year update video soon? :)

Awesome bag. Nice wear.
Thanks for your comment, the bag is still looking good. I'm going to do a 7 year review soon, so stay tuned for that.
I think Saddleback Leather Product has a good quality and durable ... !!!

What is that notebook at 2:51? Didn't find it on their website. It's not the notepad holder?
How about an updated look at it?

Would like to see an update of you awesome briefcase
Can you provide a 8 year review?
Just another leather conditioner to try, it works great for me and it's USA made. Leather Honey, check it out.
Does it darken the leather?
sir I am from India , which leather bag is best for MacBook Air 13" ? and which brand ?
Highest quality. Trump's the dainty European purses that some uninitiated are fooled by.
Why buy a BMW when Ford makes Pintos in Mexico
And you fail to comprehend the difference.
The quality of this bag is alright for The American Market but not good quality compared to The European level of quality
Are you serious? That bag is only 5 years old? I've seen bag that fare better after 30 years of use. Your leather is structurally falling apart.
Zhida Zhou can you name a few. I’m looking for a good bag.
@@suprxmestorm7090 he’s a troll ignore him. Doesn’t know anything and spews out bullshit all the time
This bag is alright and the quality is okay but has zero style. 100% aimed at The American market.
Bevakasha He has used this leather bag for five years and it still looks beautiful. What bag do you have that is better?

@@yacovlevi Yet, here you are watching American leather bags videos 🤣🤣🤣
@@WinnieDaou Yes, I am with good reason. I wanted to educate myself about them.
Berluti... yeah, if I want a 3g purse for my wife.
