I bought 3 different bags hoping to find just the right one for lugging my laptop to/from work. This bag is made of durable leather and was the least expensive of the 3. The shoulder strap was key. It had to be flat and wide enough to not dig in to my shoulders. This one is the keeper and is the least expensive. I can fit my laptop, my shoes, and my lunch in there comfortably, and it doesn't feel like I'm carrying a ton of bricks.
