Samantha Convertible Medium Backpack

I was excited about this backpack as it was a stylish shape and color, and seemed to work perfectly for travel. However the first time I used it I was out at a theme park and the backpack strap kept unfastening and falling off, and all my stuff if I happened to have not zippered it would scatter everywhere. I thought it was just a screw so before I wore it the second time I screwed in the part I thought was coming loose and it seemed ok, but that was just a short trip. Then the third time I used it, it broke off again. I am mainly using this as a backpack, not a shoulder bag since the shape isn’t great for a shoulder bag, but it’s completely unusable as a backpack if this strap keeps breaking. For the price the quality is just not there.

I purchased the Samantha Backpack in Cognac Brown over a year ago and just reordered it in black. I absolutely love all the zippered pockets, especially the one on the back where I can securely store my iPhone 14 Pro. Inside is spacious with zippered pocket for my wallet and another zipper at the top to secure everything inside. I can fit a water bottle, charger, retractable quad pod, and many other items without the bag looking bulky. The shoulder strap is handy when I want to carry the bag on my shoulder instead of wearing it as a backpack. It’s constructed well with quality materials- no scratches in the leather and always looks new.

I have this bag in two colors (cognac and warm beige). It is very well made and feels very luxurious. It's very practical, especially for those who like to keep themselves very organized. I love that I have a place for every item. You can fit a lot in this bag and it's great to know I can fit in the regular wallet, keys, phone, makeup, as well as sunscreen, glasses and even an iPad! I love that I can be handsfree or use it as a traditional handbag. My friends were so admiring that I have bought this bag as a gift twice. I very much recommend!
