Brian GA: This is the best and nicest leather laptop bag I've ever owned. The quality and texture of the leather is exceptional, all the materials are of higher quality and feel very durable, and the layout of the storage areas and pickets is very functional. It looks fantastic and much more expensive than it is. I like the messenger bag style, but this one has an executive/dressy look to it and is very professional. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better made and more stylish bag anywhere near this price and possibly even a lot more costly than this one.

James G.: I’ve had this bag now for little over three months and use it everyday for work. I did a lot of research on which bag I wanted to purchase for my new job and narrowed it down to two. I was looking for a leather messenger bag that was professional and could fit a laptop. I finally picked this one and I have no regrets!
The bag is fashionable and professional. I get a lot of compliments and comments at work. The bag is durable and have had no issues with it the zipper, tears, etc.
It holds my 15” laptop with ease. On top of that, I can put in my padfolio, 2-3 books, pens, notebooks, newspaper and charging cable. The pockets are are big and deep, which allows me to nicely fit my iPad mini with ease. I can already tell that I’ll be using this bag for many years to come.
The only con that I could find, and it’s not even that big of a problem, is that the buckles to open the flap is tough to do. You really have to push down on the clasps to release the buckle, and it can be hard to do at times. Or if you’re in a hurry to get something out of your bag, it might be a bit embarrassing trying to mess around with the buckle.
Overall, I am...

DK Yu: I own the Kenneth Cole Risky Business bag  Kenneth Cole Risky Business Messenger Bag  in brown as well and had that for a good while before switching to this bag. I also own a Kenneth Cole Rest My Case bag  Kenneth Cole Reaction Luggage I Rest My Case  in black that I was using for work. This bag has replaced both as my go to bag. There are a few reasons for that, which I will go into. I'm not going to go too in depth about the features of the bag, since plenty of other reviews have done that, but want to focus on comparing these three for someone who is considering the other bags.

The Risky Business bag is a really clean looking bag, but has no support in the interior. That meant most of the items inside moved around a lot and it wasn't a very good laptop bag due to the lack of padding on the inside. The structure of the bag was fairly flimsy, so the file folders I used for work got bent up sometimes. The handle on top of that bag wasn't especially usable since there was no structural support for that bag, so grabbing the handle on the run with a full bag sometimes meant things spilling all over...

Adam S.: This is my first leather laptop bag, I have only used canvas-type backpacks in the past. I wanted something more professional that I could have during customer visits, and visits with senior management. I initially received the Kenneth Cole messenger bag as a present from my wife, but it did not fit my 15" laptop, so I replaced it with the 'Show Business' model. I have used this on about 10 business trips over the last 4 months, and take it to and from work on a daily basis. It has held up very well thus far.

Pros:
- Very nice construction, shows no signs of detrimental wear after several months of use
- Zippers and clasps are heavy-duty, do not expect them to break down
- Leather quality is very good, wearing nicely, looks very professional
- Fits my laptop, iPad, all cables and chargers, some pens/business cards, and a few file folders
- Has a separate zippered pocket for important documents or files.

Cons:
- Unless the clasps are closed fully, they click very loudly when walking (minor annoyance)
- The bag is difficult to open when on my shoulder due to the curvature of the zippered section. I'm concerned that over several...
