Product Overview

Quality- The Love 41 City is a Women's Leather Backpack made from full-grain leather, nothing less. It is the strongest and most resistant grade of leather there is and the zippers are a very high quality super smooth zipper from Spain. You're going to love this. 

Leather- The grain of a hide is like the shingles on a roof. The grain is the thin top layer of any leather hide that is really tough and resistant to stains and water soaking through. When a cowhide comes into the tannery, it's really thick, so they usually split the top half from the bottom half, the full grain layer from the rest of it. Then they have two hides to sell to leather backpack makers, an expensive quality one and a cheap low quality one. We use hides that have the full amount of grain on the hide (full grain). 

Functionality
This is our best-selling women's leather backpack because it's the bag for everyday use. It's a great size for an adult, but could also be used by a teen or medium-sized child. It has three super-convenient exterior pockets (one zippered and two with nipple rivet closures), adjustable leather backpack straps and a built-in carrying handle.

The story behind this leather bag
This leather backpack is one of Love 41's best selling backpacks because of it's perfect size, looks and quality. It is made with the strongest and most water resistant leather we could buy (full grain) and sewn with a great German thread that won't fall apart with exposure to the sun. 

I began to really see a need to create smaller leather backpack to add to our line up.  I wanted to come up with a design that would be perfect to carry the basics and that could be worn by an adult, or medium-sized child or teen. I think this backpack hit the mark on all those things and more! I love the super soft full-grain leather and the convenience of its ideal size. When you need something small and light with room for your essentials, I think the Love 41 City Leather Backpack is the perfect choice! As always, the purchase of this bag helps love others in need through education, food, shelter & job training.

    Easy and cute

    I have this backpack in Western Cedar, and it works for all occasions! Perfect for a walk around town, vacations, a quick hike, a trip to the mall with the littles! It holds a lot for it's size and is very comfortable. This particular leather doesn't scratch, stain, or change the same way the others do, which for this bag is great! The slip pockets are awesome! Love it!

    Perfection in black

    I love the size, style and design of this bag and I had one in a beautiful limited edition color from the holiday auctions last year. But the tumbled leather, though beautiful, was a bit too soft for the jumble of stuff that I carry and I could feel bumps from pouches and wallets and such through the leather on my back when carrying it. Well, one year later I saw that more colors had been added so I ordered it in the beautiful, L41 "dusty" black, and I am in love! The leather is stiffer so I don't feel the stuff in the bag when it's on my back and the front pockets stay put better with the post closures. Since it's unlined, it will soften over time and the thickness and body of this leather are ideal. It was a great bag in Western Cedar and the other softer leathers, but in black it's just perfection for me.

    Great, but

    Great for daily carry and for using as a purse. The front pockets are difficult because they dont stay closed and like leather will do, stretch out.

    Good but not great

    In general I like this backpack - but it could have been a GREAT backpack with a few minor changes. I dont like the little button things on the front that supposedly hold the 2 front flaps/compartmetns closed - they dont, the flaps are always open and therefore largely unusable - and they look cheap. Strong magnetic tabs might have been a better choice. A double zipper would be a good substitute so that it would be easy to open the main compartment from either side. But the quality of the leather is wonderful and I will use this pack for years to come, I hope !

    Get this now. You won't regret it!

    This is the PERFECT bag for every day use. I love it! I love being hands free and not having to keep a bag from falling off my shoulder. With three kids, this bag is perfect to put a few snacks in and take off on an adventure!!
