Ladies Commuter Tote

I love this bag. It's well made and stylish. I purchased my first Brics bag at the flagship store in Milan and it has been such a wonderful bag, used regularly for the last 6 years wth no sign of wear. I purchased this tote to use as a personal item bag for travel. I have packed it and it holds a lot, but have not traveled with it, as yet. I really like that it's light weight and has leather handles and trim.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this bag. I was in search of a bag for work that has enough shoulder tote room but wasn’t going to kill me. I needed something that could fit my huge thinkpad laptop and other items - all while being able to zip up. I wanted more structure than a longchamp and this has it. I could not recommended this enough. This is the perfect bag for a corporate girlie who needs organization, size, a clean look, and wants something timeless.

I chose this bag because it evokes a famed French bag maker’s designs but with greater functionality while traveling. The quilted sleeves built into the center of this bag offer both protection to a laptop and/or tablet (I travel with just a tablet), but for me at least enabled the bag to remain upright. There are enough pockets to stay organized without losing items inside the bag. My only demerit would be that the sleeve that enables you to put it over your rollaboard handle is too snug— resulting in a hilarious, escalating, frantic effort to get it off while boarding a plane (a fellow passenger and flight attendant chipped in to help). So I will not use that feature again in that setting at least— lesson learnt!

I am in love with this bag! I travel in airports for work a lot. It is really well-made, it’s the perfect size, very roomy inside (but not too big), it slides over your roller suitcase handle, and it looks so good. I just can’t say enough good things about it.

This bag has a good number of pockets (not so many that you lose track of things). I prefer black, but the black version had a drab lining. This navy bag has a bright turquoise lining that makes it easy to see the contents. The straps are long enough to wear on the shoulder over a winter coat. My only "complaint" is that the cell phone pockets are a bit tight, so when I pull out my phone, the lining gets dragged up with it, even if I have other heavier things in the bag, so I have to push the whole thing back into place. The bag does not stand up on its own, but given how light it is, that isn't surprising. I like that it zips all the way closed, and that the sleeve for sliding onto a roll-aboard bag zips closed for use as another outside pocket.All in all, a good buy. It holds my 13 inch Thinkpad with room to spare. I have a Bric's nylon duffle that looks new after nearly 20 years, so I'm confident that this will last.

I use this bag for work. It fits a laptop and iPad in the central padded compartment with lots of space to put other things on either side. The bag has enough smaller internal side compartments and 2 external smaller zipper pockets to fit other stuff. For traveling, it can slip over luggage handle through a side slip which is very convenient. I have another Brics haversack which is made of durable material and leather which has held up very well over many years. No scratches and still looks good. So I’m very please with the quality.

Very pleased. Quality bag and super nice padding for my laptop. Nice interior space and pockets. Looks classy for sure. I have the black with tan leather trim.

Too small.
