This is the second Kipling purse I've had and they are stylish, compact and the material lastsThis is the second Kipling purse I have, same design but different color. I like that it’s not too big and has plenty of pockets. I gave it four stars because I think the canvas is very stiff. I don’t recall this with one that I purchased several years ago. I’m thinking it’s a cheaper canvas material. I’m going to wash it in the hopes of softening it a bit. My biggest complaint however is that freaky monkey they switched to. What happened to the furry little monkey….it was my stress reliever whenever I went to a social event. Now we’ve got some freaky rubber money that looks like some sort of alien. Imagine your favorite teddy bear being made of rubber with no eyes! Nice going Kipling!I like it and have been using everyday.Another quality product by Kipling. A nice, long strap for wearing crossbody. If it were two inches talker, it’s be perfect, but that’s a personal preference. I like it a lot.Great to see Kipling revamp the aesthetics of their core product line a little but what’s the use of a facelift if the functionality and quality they are MOST known for are downgraded? I purchased a set of items February 2022, including the New Angie, Keiko, and City Pack Medium, and I have to say that the materials and build quality of their bags are now ehhhh at best. Fabric felt plasticky, stitching had unraveled bits, and— this felt like a betrayal honestly— they lost the key leash inside bags that used to have them. Not cool, Kipling. I primarily use these bags for travel and have never “upgraded” to brands like Tumi because I’ve always believed Kipling’s QUALITY and functionality were always superior, regardless of whether the bags had tonal zips or monkey keychains. But I guess that was a pandemic casualty too, huh? Returned everything.Oh, and Dusty Carmine is definitely not like the product photos indicated. Waaay lighter and less saturated.I love that is very light , has a lot of compartments to organize your stuff… it look small but it holds a lot of things…This is a great bag for traveling and every day. This is the third one I've purchased and was a gift for a friend. The color may look blue on the website but is actually a dark blue-gray.This well-made bag is the perfect size for me to hold what I need on a daily basis. The different pockets keep everything organized. The overall size of the bag is perfect for me, I am on the small side and so I don't like a very large bag to carry around. There is no problem with the weight of the bag, and no digging in my shoulder. The zippers are all sturdy and well-made. I also like the way the bag looks and the dark grey color is perfect to go with my clothes.I love this bag. It is light in weight and has many compartments. I bought it mainly for the spring and summer to use as a quick go to bag to run errands. I also look forward to use this bag on vacation. I purchased the grey slate color.I love kipling bags. This is my 6's bag.This is a great purse for traveling. Lots of separate compartments and it is lightweight.Awesome handbag.La bolsa es muy bonita
