Aaron’s Leather Quality
I’ve never been much of a bag carrying person, however, I recently find myself in need of something to carry my things to and from work as I work from home more. I have always admired the saddleback leather bags but they are out of my budget. I came across this one on Woot and was wondering about it’s quality. Anybody have any experience with them?

OOH! Thanks for the heads up.

I just looked at their reviews on Amazon, seems ok to me.

I do leather work as a hobby, there is no way I could even buy the leather and materials for under $100-$150.

I think I'll order one now.

“The men’s messenger bag is finished with leather bindings around the edges that helps it to stay uptight when placed on the ground.”

What’s not to like about that?

I purchased one off of Woot about a year ago. It's not a bad bag at all. I use it for a laptop, note pad and a couple of other small items on the road.

For the price it is a nice bag.

Website said these are from Spain.

I spent a year and a half working in Barcelona. The three really big bargains were taxicabs, wine, and leather goods.

Very high quality leather goods at phenomenal prices. I had a jacket (blazer style) made for me, great quality leather, at a really low price.

Custom riding (motorcycle) leather apparel was really inexpensive.

Bags of all kinds, great quality, low prices.

That may all be true, but I think their spiel is a little unclear-perhaps disingenuous?

“Aaron’s products are crafted out of the finest leather in Spain...”

Crafted in Spain? Or crafted out of the finest leather in Spain?
