Awesome bag!
This is truly a beautiful bag! I got the classic dark leather, which is exactly the rich brown shown in the pictures. The leather has a wonderful grain that adds to the bag's character. The leather is thicker than I expected; while it is by no means stiff, it is not ultra-soft, ultra-thin butter leather. This is leather that will age well and last for many, many years. The zippers are matte silver metal so not only do they look great against the brown leather, they'll be durable. (The other hardware is the same type of matte/antiqued silver.) The bag is lined with a heavy khaki twill that is just a shade or two lighter than the strap. The cotton strap not only adds to the bag's uniqueness, it also keeps the bag from sliding when you bend over. (I wear it across my chest like a messenger bag.) Inside there are two small pockets on the divider separating the two sections of the bag. One is gusseted and works well for a cell phone (or items of a similar size) and the other is...

Beautiful bag
Just a beautiful bag. I bought it for use with my 15" Powerbook. The powerbook just barely fits, but it does fit, so don't use it with anything larger. The flap fastens with magnets which seems mostly to just keep it from flapping around, it does not keep the flap closed very securely. But the material is top notch and it looks fantastic. Highly recommended.--- Update: 2 or 3 months after getting this bag, the leather which binds the shoulder strap to the main bag split, making the shoulder strap unusable. However, the seller has been extremely helpful in taking care of the situation, and the manufacturer is looking at the stitching in their design to see if it needs to be strengthened. I look forward to getting my great bag back.

'Storia' Leather Messenger
I purchased this bag in classic dark leather a month ago. The rich brown color shown in the pictures is not fake - the bag looks gorgeous. It needs no breaking in but will become softer after use. The bag is thick enough to feel substantial but not stiff as to feel uncomfortable. I've found it to be the perfect size - large enough to carry the items I need for school without being bulky.Given the high cost, I would have liked the bag to come with a longer warranty (It is only 1 year). If you are looking to purchase this bag, you can do so at a slightly cheaper cost directly through the US distributor at Marcopoloni.com.

Product Description
A unisex messenger bag for grown-ups. Forget stiff attaches or boring briefcases - with this leather messenger bag you don't have to sacrifice style and comfort by going all-leather.
- Comes in these textures:
- Aviator - rough, crackle-textured split leather with a weathered look reminiscent of vintage aviator jackets - though the surface will soften with use. (Aviator caffe is a very dark brown ... so dark it almost looks black)
- Classic - 100% vegetable-tanned Tuscan leather with its unique surface and unmistakable aroma. Please note that wrinkles, tonal variations, and small blemishes in the leather are natural characteristics of this type of leather, as they are not buffed away to create an artificially even surface.
Each leather bag is carefully crafted by hand in Cava de' Tirreni, Italy. Vincenzo and his small team of leather craftsmen at Dionigi are proud to be in a workship that carries a tradition of over 70 years. These folks don't believe in mass-production - in fact, they deliberately limit their production to ensure the highest quality and customer satisfaction. Only the best raw materials, the best designs and the best craftsmanship are good enough to create a Dionigi product.
