Samsonite Classic Leather Slim Backpack

First off, I don't write reviews often. So for me to jump on here means I like this backpack. As a young corporate professional, I was looking for a modern high end backpack that can give me the look I was going for while still providing the storage I need.I'm typically very frugal with my spending but was willing to invest in, what looked like a backpack that checked all my boxes. Modern look, light brown, quality leather, slim, comfort, and can protect my laptop while traveling. I took a chance on this bag and I was so happy I did.I'm traveling more now for work and the bag pairs well with both business casual clothing and suits. I'm also a guy that likes to carry my gear. A hefty 100w power bank, a 14.4 inch Microsoft Surface Studio or 13 inch MacBook pro, a bag of power cables, and other miscellaneous items. Although it can be a bit tight on space, it has a great layout of pockets and compartments for everything you will need. And this bag, together with a great sized carry-on, that strap on the back of the bag makes traveling enjoyable. No more having to carry a heavy bag on my back just to get to the plane.All in all, great back and I highly recommend it. Hope this helps someone!

I bought this for my husband for work. It is compact but does have room for a smaller laptop. The quality is good and has held up to daily use for several months so far. It still looks new.

The quality of the leather is great. I was worried it might not fit by 16" lenovo laptop but it fits perfectly in both the dedicated laptop section or the middle section. The size is perfect for a daily laptop backpack.

I ordered this backpack 3 years ago and use it heavily for work and travel. I decided to write a review because after using for multiple years, it is still in excellent condition. A sleek, classic piece, with subtle elegance. The leather is solid and supple, the zippers are smooth and sturdy and the interior is holding up perfectly with no flaws or signs of wear. There are multiple compartments and zippered storage areas in the bag that make it easy to keep organized and find items quickly.At the original time of purchase, I couldn’t decide between this bag or a Coach leather computer backpack, so I bought both. I haven’t bothered using the Coach bag. The quality is not as good as the Samsonite and the Coach does not have the storage capacity or compartments. Hopefully the quality and craftsmanship remains the same for those who purchase the 2025 model.

This is hands down the best looking bag I found—the cognac color and the front design are just plain beautiful. It’s slim but still fits all my essentials, and the zippers are smooth and don’t catch at all. Great for a laptop, planner, and some documents.The big trade-off is no water bottle pockets, so you’ll have to either skip hydration or toss your bottle in with your stuff (which I never enjoy). Straps are thin, so carrying heavier loads isn’t comfy for long treks, and there are no secret pockets for your more valuable items.Surprisingly fits my 16" m3 macbook pro and work 14" macbook pro

The media could not be loaded. I loved everything about this backpack. The only negative is that it was not as spacious as I would had liked and the leather was a bit too hard. I wanted a leather backpack with softer more malleable and flexible leather. The straps were too thin but other than that is an excellent piece that will last you for a very long time. I highly recommend it.

Looking for new bag for work to carry my laptop and other items to and from the office as well a bag to travel with. I wanted something stylish, leather, not bulky and would hold my work and/or personal laptops.I was concerned that my work and personal laptops would not fit due thier size. There is a larger size back pack to this one however it looked big and bulky. My work laptop is 15" and my personal is 16".Happy to report that my work laptop fits perfectly in the back laptop pocket with plenty of room. My personal laptop fits perfectly in the middle compartment. (see picture)Backpack is stylish, has a slim profile, well made, lots of pockets, room for battery pack and notebooks and other office items. I really like that the straps are wider, padded and adjustable.

I was on the hunt for a professional-looking backpack that didn’t scream “student” but still gave me all the utility of a solid work bag — and this one nailed it. The design is sleek and modern, and the cognac leather looks even better in person. I’ve been using it daily for commuting and occasional travel, and it holds my 14” laptop, notebook, chargers, and even a light jacket with ease.What surprised me the most was how well it keeps its shape — even when it’s fully loaded. No sagging, no weird bulges. The straps are comfortable, and the back panel is breathable, which makes a difference during long days. Bonus points for the luggage strap — makes airport runs so much easier.Honestly, this is one of those purchases where you feel like you got way more than what you paid for. If you’re on the fence, just get it — you won’t regret it.
