Firu-HandmadeWomen Vintage Style Genuine Brown Leather Crossbody Shoulder Bag Handmade Purse

Beautiful bagPurse:love it

I read the reviews that stated the leather smelled. I found this to be true of all leather products I’ve purchased that have been recently made - they have that new leather scent.Leather products that have been “sitting” and waiting to be sold, have had a chance to “air out”.Yes, my purse did smell of leather in the beginning, but since I’ve been carrying it frequently, it no longer smells.What I like about this purse:•It looks nice. The brown color highlights the details.•It’s durable - I don’t have to handle it with “kid gloves”. I stuff it in my file cabinet at work every morning to lock it up.•It’s well made - nothing has broken on it and I use it everyday.•The adjustable strap fits comfortably on my arthritic shoulder. Of course, with any purse, if too much is stuffed in it, it becomes too heavy and uncomfortable.•I live in the city and I wear it across my body and the buckles prevent thieves from being able to get into it when I’m standing in a long line.•It’s reasonably priced.

I bought the brown version of this purse in 2021. It was great, held together nicely and was easily the best purse I've ever had. It's roomy enough for me, and has held up great for three years. It would have kept going strong too. But this year a pet chewed through the strap. I was upset. I loved this purse so much though, I was willing to purchase it a second time.When I came back, I noticed there was a black option. I honestly don't remember if that option existed in 2021, but if you look closely at the pictures the black one is very slightly different than the brown one. The back of the strap on the black one is lined with a cloth and it's actually better to adjust than the brown one. Still, I was still more than happy to have my purse back!Until today came. I've had this purse a little over two months and it has already broken. I picked up my purse this morning and only the strap came with. One of the small loops that holds the strap ripped. I haven't had it a long time and it's only really gone through normal wear and tear.I should have just gone with the brown option. I would have easily given it five stars. The black one is not of the same quality.Edit to add a week later: The seller reached out to me regarding my review and kindly replaced the purse that broke! I am changing my rating from two stars to five, it was incredible of them to reach out to offer a solution.

This bag is gorgeous, trendy, and I love the larger size. The only issue is that the main buckle sometimes slips off the strap.

Durable and fashionable and roomy

The bag itself is not light. The buckle was not secure and fell off.

It is Nice!

I loved this bag so much I bought it twice! However, the buckle that closes the purse repeatedly falls off. I’ve lost the buckles from both purses now. I want to travel with this bag but without the buckle, items easily fall out of the bag! FIRU, can you please send me two more buckles please?
