Montana WestPurses for Women Hobo Shoulder Handbags with Zipper

This handbag/tote features realistic looking cowhide leather with an accent of alligator down the front, framed by small rivets. The sales page made it look good, but when I opened the box (which can easily double as a gift box - sturdy, colorful and attractive) and examined the look, craftsmanship and features I was stunned. I purchased it because I needed to carry a fairly heavy long, narrow box to a function - hands free. This worked perfectly for why I bought it, however it looks so good that I'm planning on using it regularly.Features:The interior of the purse and outside pocket are lined with a satiny feeling fabric, reminiscent of a famous designer brand whose name begins with a Y. The interior features two 5½" deep pouch pockets on one side, roomy enough to carry my key fob and other things that need to be easily found, especially in a large purse. On the other side there is a 7" zippered pocket. Outside, on the back of the purse/tote, is another lined pocket with a 7" zipper. It's a convenient, place that's roomy to carry my cell phone, secured with a zipper. Attached to one of the handle rings with a thin chain is a small zippered pouch, large enough to hold an ID. For security, should I use it, I moved it so that it dangles inside the purse, not outside the purse. The bottom, between the lining and outside 'pleather' surface, has a hard, probably thick cardboard, base that allows the purse to stand upright and not slump over. IMO, the manufacturer thought of everything.Sturdiness and Craftsmanship:The handle attaches to the body of the bag with oversized, sturdy rings and kept in place with heavy duty decorative rivets. Stitching is tight all around and appears to be able to hold up to normal use.I included a picture of a tag that was attached with a red grosgrain ribbon showing an MSRP of $39.99 which is considerably more than I paid. Normally I don't pay any attention to MSRP claims like these, since they're usually a marketing tactic. However, in this case I feel that it's a very realistic price for similar products I've seen.This purse is truly first class and I'm thrilled with my purchase.

This is my second bag purchase from Montana West. Don’t let the photo fool you, this hobo bag holds a lot of things including an iPad. I carry quite a bit of stuff and this hobo bag holds it all. They’re bags are not real leather, which I love, but this bag is soft and I absolutely love the color. There is a nice pocket in the front for keys or your phone a zipper pocket inside and plenty of room. I love Montana West bags they are my favorite. Great quality and fair prices and I have no doubt this hobo bag will last.

This tote bag is absolutely beautiful! Looking forward to using it.. so soft and well made as I expected from Montana West bags. I think I have every style they make 😉 to get them at this price is a steal for sure. I’ll be set up for a few years at this point.. the fabric inside is so pretty and very well stitched and straps are strong for as much as I carry in these bags. Love the large opening to see inside as I tend to get unorganized quickly with receipts and other items.. not at many outside pockets but I’ll get by.. thank you Montana West for another great tote! 😊

I read the reviews on this handbag and was willing to order one. I do not regret my purchase. It is a super cute purse with enough room for the things I like to have on hand. I was a bit skeptical about the one strap cause I have always purchased handbags with double straps due to my small shoulders but I am loving the single thick strap. It stays on my shoulder without sliding off.

I use my small purse insert organizer and it is almost the perfect purse. I still lose my keys, but I can find everything else quickly. It isn't too deep and the with the organizer and cute little bags for keeping first aid supplies and makeup supplies, it is practically perfect in every way. It would be perfect if the shoulder strap was maybe an inch or two longer, but it'll do.

Love it. Such great quality came wrapped so nice even sent in a cute lil box. Love it so much I can't wait to buy another in a different color. Thank you!

Nice and soft and very functional. I am pretty rough on purses usually but this one is the perfect size especially if I need to overfill it. Great purchase.

This bag exceeded my expectations. It's the perfect size. It fits just right under your arm and the material is amazing. Not to mention the yellow is the perfect color!

I love the color of this bag, but sadly I am returning it. When I opened the box there was an overwhelming smell like mold, I put it outside to air out, still smelled like mold. If it was not for that one problem, I would have kept the bag, it really is nice 😕

Muy bien la textura y color
