PASCADO leather tote bag for women vintage purse handbag shoulder satchel with zipper and pocket

This bag is really beautiful. All the reviewers complain about the strong smell, and they're right, but it does die down after time. I just put mine in a separate room for about two weeks to air out and then rubbed it down with Kiwi shoe conditioning oil. It seemed to help with the smell and calmed it down a bit. At first, it reminded me of a horse ranch for some reason, but now it smells like leather. Overall I'm very happy at the quality, price and shipping. It's a deep and roomy bag. The two side pockets are deep and they are sewn. I know some people were saying that the pockets weren't sewn on the bottom, but they are. The bag does stand on its own, but as you can see in the pictures, the bottom starts to sag a little,but not enough to bother me. I got caught in the rain with it and I just let it dry on its own because I wanted to test that factor out. The spots that made me temporarily nervous, faded away thank goodness! It really is such a great quality bag. I'd recommend it to anyone. I love it so much!

This purse is a phenomenal deal. I own many designer, EXPENSIVE, leather bags and this one meets or exceeds the quality of each one. I was skeptical, of course, but the value is amazing. Real zippers (not the cheap plastic ones becoming all too common). The double zipper on top is a great feature I didn’t realize I had been missing all my life. This size is perfect for me as a mom of young twins- fits my zipper of beauty/hygiene items, their boogie wipes, 2 sippy cups, a small snack for each, my wallet, phone charger, etc. doesn’t seem overstuffed even with all our daily essentials! Having two interior zipper pockets is also great- receipts and ink pens on one side, contain my charging cords and earbuds on the other! The outside pocket fits my 2 sets of keys, phone and a couple face masks! It is an easy to open close magnet clasp that seems very strong. The flap closure also makes it very secure! The hardware- grommets and strap loops- are a great metal. I’ve written very few reviews (5 tops) as I reserve it for the absolute BEST or WORST products. This one earned it!!

I decided after buying faux leather and other material bags, that I was ready for a nice real leather bag. I shopped for two weeks before i found this one. I was looking for a specific size and shape. First, the quality of this bag is oustanding. It looks like a hand-made bag which is what I was after the quality of the materials and workmanship is amazing. And if you can't tell whether the bag is real leather by its appearance, the smell will certainly confirm it-real leather smell! Even the hardware on the bag is excellent quality. I was a tiny bit disappointed with the front pock as it can't be overfilled if you expect to close it but this was more than made up four by the two huge interior zip pockets. So I keep my cell phone, sunglasses and keys etc in the front for easy access and use those two huge pockets for everything else. The middle holds my wallet and ipad with plenty of room to spare. So in conclusion if you are looking for a real big real leather bag, this is definately the one! I was going to post a picture but the seller's pictures are very accurate.

This bag arrived on great condition, the quality is very good. There are some dark spots where it looks like the leather was either artificially aged or maybe rubbed in transit? They do not detract from the natural look, I like that the bag doesn't look brand new. The canvas lining is green so things don't disappear into a black hole in the bucket, the lighter color helps see things inside. A cheap purse insert organizer works well in the main part of the bag. The two inside pockets are very nice. One zipper pocket on either side and they are bigger than expected. The top bag zipper closes from either end or the zippers can meet in the middle. The dual zipper does restrict the width of the opening just a bit tho. I have a 14inch laptop and it's a tight fit. The pocket on the front is lined as well. I deducted a star because the flap and snap on the pocket aren't lined up exactly and take a bit of fiddling to get it snapped. If you have much in the front pocket it won't snap it is designed to be snapped when almost flat. The flap doesn't have any expandability like the pocket does and that's why I deducted one star. The bag arrives very flat and I plan to take time to stuff it full and straighten out the bottom so maybe it will stand up? Overall I'm very happy with this and for what I paid for it.

This tote is great! Beautiful inside and out! Do not let the smell comments stop you from purchasing one. Of course it had a strong leather smell when 1st opened late afternoon but was calmed down to a normal leather smell by morning - everyone that has seen it loves it too all their comments including a sniff then ohh and it's leather too! The inside is a limish green easy to see your things and just pretty! Good pocket placement with good zippers - get one - you'll love it!

I don’t think the quality Is the best, but it’s a good functional bag.

I’m very pleased with this handbag. It has a nice divided section with lots of inner pockets and zippered pockets. The lining appears to be a suede like material. The exterior is real leather. The straps feel sturdy and are the correct length to carry on my shoulder. I have my planner and misc papers in the divided section. The main compartment is roomy enough for my large zippered wallet, 2 eyeglass cases, checkbook, keys and a small cosmetic bag. The outer pocket expands a little bit and and my iPhone plus size and cord with plug fit with room to spare. I’ve been carrying it for a week and it’s softening up nicely. I anticipate using it for many years. I’m seriously tough on purses and I think this one will last. I didn’t want to get a faux leather bag from China, and I liked that this was handcrafted by a small family business in India
