Let me start by saying that a bag is a statement. It is a representation of who you are and can evoke emotion. Well I will tell you, this Dubai Weekender evokes positive emotions all around!!!!When it comes to buying a piece of luggage, there are many things to consider: looks, color, material, quality, price, value, and filling a need.My need was for an all-around weekender bag. A bag that I could wear with all occasions and use in many different scenarios, such as going on a nice business trip or taking a casual road trip to the city or beach.Regarding looks, I wanted to find a leather bag that wasn’t too flashy but also wasn’t poor in style. A bag that was trendy but timeless. I wanted a black bag, but not a shiny black leather. The leather should be supple and smooth and should age well.I also never want to sacrifice quality. This is so important to me. When you are going to invest your money, which is hard earned, you want that product to last. You want it to stand up to daily life for a long time to come. The topic of quality comes right in line with value, because you get what you pay for. I’m really happy with the price tag of this bag for what I’ve received. The material is top notch. All of the stitching is grade A+++. The straps and rings for attachment are placed perfectly and secured with strength, and I might mention that there are several ways to wear this bag as well due to the location of the straps and hooks. And don’t forget, this is Buffalo Leather It is awesome material!!The Dubai has met all of my listed requirements and I’m even more happy with it in person than I was by seeing it online.The bag is really a great size too. I’ve seen some weekender bags that are either too long (like a hot dog) or too short and stubby. This bag literally has the best dimensions, in my opinion. You can see from the pictures that I have an easy time packing my gym clothes and shoes, a business outfit, an extra watch box and accessories, some magazines and plenty of more room…One of the great features is accommodating different sizes loads. If I have a smaller amount of clothes inside, I can readjust the location of the shoulder strap to the ends of the bag and I can take the outer flaps and secure them in the center making the bag a smaller footprint and a bit more compact and put together! In a normal case where I have more belongings with me, I leave the shoulder strap mounted to the center hooks and keep the bag in full sized capacity. When I’m not using it and I have it stored in my home, it lays quite flat because it doesn’t have a large skeleton or frame that would make it bulky.I am really fond of the interior color, which is a very dark and attractive green. I also appreciate the storage space both inside and outside. If you are a person who likes organization, this bag will make you happy. Aside from the color and storage space, the bag is quite light and doesn’t have a lot of unnecessary weight. The bottom is also fit with some protective studs that protects the bag and keeps the leather from contacting the ground.I really have nothing negative to say at all about this bag. If you can’t tell already and if I need to be more obvious, I AM REALLY HAPPY AND IMPRESSED WITH THIS PRODUCT!!! Every time I look at it, I get a feeling of satisfaction and joy.Should you need a weekender bag with solid quality, great looks, and good bang for the buck, I would advise you to highly consider this product!
