These messenger bags are your ticket to the ultimate classic look. Things to think about before buying a real leather bag:

1. Material

For some, faux or PU leather will suffice. However, if you want something that will last longer and age gracefully, there is no substitute for real leather. Get a hard-wearing material like crazy horse leather and get the peace of mind that your bag will be with you for the long haul.

2. Size

This is a critical one, which we always see passers-by. Make sure you have room for all your gear in the leather bag you buy. Most leather bags are easy to fit into tablets, books and wallets. If you want to have a laptop, however, check the measurements carefully. Measure your laptop's width and make sure that you purchase a leather bag that is at least half a inch wider than your laptop size. Weight is important to note as well. An especially large leather bag can be a burden to carry with all your appliance inside.

3. Hardware

It's not all about the leather!

Quality clasps and zippers not only prolong the life of your bag and give it that classic look; they are also a security feature. Make sure you buy a bag that protects your items and keeps them securely stored. Depending on your preference, make sure you choose a pocket layout that matches your personality. Looking for something smooth and chic? Maybe go for something that has just the one inner pocket. Do you like everything to have its own place? Look for a leather bag with multiple inner and outer pockets so you can arrange your gear accordingly.

We also almost always recommend getting a leather bag with a shoulder strap. Even if you prefer to carry it briefcase-style, when you load up your bag with a laptop, books and files, you will be grateful you have an easier way of carrying it.

4. Brand

Be sure to buy from a brand you feel you can trust. Read reviews (we always prefer ones with pictures!) from other customers who have bought the same bag you are looking at. Some sellers will offer trial periods or moneyback guarantees. These are great for leather bags. They take away the risk because if you don't like the color or even if you just change your mind, you can still try it out for a few days then return it for your money back.
