  • Get this bag!
Size: One Size Color: Shaded Olive
This is such a great quality product. The size of the bag is perfect! it fits my 13 inch computer, notebook, water bottle, AirPods Max, and all the essentials you would typically throw in a bag. The suede is so high quality and the adjustable strap is a nice touch. The strap is thick enough to stay on the shoulder and allow you to carry the weight of several items. You could use this as a work bag, or every day. the olive color is so nice and will be a staple of mine for the fall. the bag arrived in factory packaging and was stuffed to ensure no damage when shipped. ... show more

  • Rich Leather Bag
Size: One Size Color: Warm Cinnamon
Beautiful bag. The color is very rich, the leather is soft, and the bag holds a lot. I use it almost every day and it has still held up and looks brands new.

  • Disappointed
Size: One Size Color: True Black
Disappointed I really wanted to love this Madewell black leather bucket bag, but I’m honestly disappointed. The leather is so thin it looks and feels cheap—more like pleather than real leather. Multiple people have asked me if I got it from Target. That says a lot. Now, I’m not knocking Target at all—Target has some great things. I’ve actually gotten some amazing bags from there at half or even a quarter of this price. But for $178–$179, I expected something more substantial. Even at Target, I think I’d find a thicker, more durable-feeling bag. The only real positives: it’s roomy, deep, and the strap is adjustable. But beyond that, it just doesn’t deliver. If you’re going to end up with something that looks like a Target bag, you might as well save your money and get the Target version. ... show more
