FADEON Women's Leather Backpack Purse - Stylish PU Travel Shoulder Bag with Tassel in Red | Perfect for Work, School & Weekend Getaways

I intend to update this review in a few days& with photos because although I LOVE the bag, I'm unsure on it as of yet. ?Pros:- Color. I picked the "yellow nubuck" hoping it wasn't actually yellow but actually the tan / light suede style that light nubuck usually is. Hallelujah bc that bet paid off. I LOVE the color!!! I couldn't be more pleased! It's a gorgeous neutral light tan that does resemble suede! It will go with EVERYTHING! Yaaay! Excellent color! The other colors also look beautiful/appealing, so if I do keep this bag, I'll likely get at least 1 more shade. ?- PERFECTLY PROPORTIONED! It is styled pretty dang near perfect. The backpack sits gracefully on your back, & has a perfect somewhat sloped/tapered design that prevents unbecoming/odd backpack-sticking-outage.- PERFECTLY, PROPERLY, LONG ENOUGH STRAPS!!! (Insert crowd going wildness here!!!??) Another miracle, this bag gives proper length in the strap department. I'm a bigger girl, (6ft tall & not bodily tiny) so I can't tell you how many times I've tried on a backpack purse, only to feel like Chris Farley in "Tommy Boy." (???"Fat guy in a little coooaat...") Graciously not the case here. Larger ladies throw caution to the Amazonian wind & give it a try! Tbh I was so thankful for the size of the straps, I like want to have another proper Thanksgiving holiday just to celebrate the kinder soul who designed/approved production for this bag. Omgosh, yes, yes, YES!!- Plenty of room in purse & plenty of pockets. I purchased the "Medium 14-inch." Another slam dunk. Enough room esp for a smaller laptop (my 8 yr old clunker won't fit, but that's also too dang heavy to "wear" anyway). But, if you own a sleeker type it will fit fabulously in here, along with every other purse essential. ++- Quality zipper pulls. They look & feel wonderful & are perfectly proportioned to the bag. Other zipper qualms exist, so keep reading for the negatives below....?- Completely appropriate/useable/adjustable buckles on straps. Seem sturdy, worked flawlessly to get the back at the proper length for me And keep it there.Cons:- NOT LEATHER. ??????Unless I've grown unknowingly unwise on the feel/labeling of real leather, this bag is 200% FALSE advertising. Dude. So uncalled for in this day & age when consumers take chances on all sorts of materials, as long as they're designed nicely. Nowhere inside the purse does it say real leather, nor does it feel like it is. It is a great leather-alternative, BUT the cost needs to adequately reflect that. Some poor big ol' moo moo did not have to perish to create this bag. ??? That's a plus for the bovine population, but alas NOT for this bag's advertised description, or for its longevity. Real, good leather will last for generations. This bag already has worn marks just from the shipping process.- Shipping Process. It comes adversarily bound in extremely tight, thick, clear plastic that's a combo between every grisly cinematic suffocation scene you've ever watched & durability of the world's toughest Hefty bag. The only problem with this, although I love the concept of more compact shipping on regular items, but on fashion items such as this faux leather material, it causes undue harm/wear & tear on the surface before the item is even tried on by the consumer. Mine for example came with a pretty large faded area near the top of the bag where the atrociously violently smothering packaging smeared the yellow nubuck shade & texture almost completely off. The clear Hefty suffocation bag also still left the backpack pleather exposed to getting scratches on the front. Ugh.- ZIPPER Issue. The zipper tabs are great, however because of the way this item has been stored/wrapped for such a long time int the same position, the top zipper seam or whatever of the backpack is naturally now Bent catastrophically in the wrong direction. So when you try to zip up the main area, it gives you SO much trouble, that if you're impatient you'll for certain Destroy the zipper on the first go. I've been super careful so far, but over time this is gonna be a serious problem unless as it is now freed from its plastic suffocation equipment it adjusts itself appropriately. As of now to zip the bag properly, you have to lay it flat on some clean angelic surface & work the zipper up over the bend of the bag on Either side, making it time-consuming & dangerous for the nice zipper. Too easy to get it snagged upon itself.All in all an excellently thought-out women's backpack purse/bag (men can choose to wear it too of course, but just giving fyi it is a feminine design). But for the few quirks I mentioned, the price should really be at $29.99, & because of the zipper difficulty/potential permanent flaw, should really be at $24.99. I got it on a lightning deal however paid like $37 for it, with it showing orginally priced at $45.99 (the expected price of a Real leather non-brandname backpack on Amazon). That said it is GORGEOUS & I might just keep it, scuffs & all. ??‍♀️
