"Sak purse looks great, nice leather. However, the main zipper does not mesh smoothly at opening. I rubbed zipper with a thin piece of Dove soap, which helped some. If I completely unzip, sometimes it is difficult to re-zip. It is a deep purse, and items can get lost in the bottom. I will adjust to this."
"I purchased the moss green suede for use in the autumn/winter as an every day neutral carry that will match my wardrobe. The suede and leather trim are super soft and supple, and the zipper glides very smoothly. Inside of the bag is spacious with room for my wallet, makeup bag, sunglasses, readers and other small items. If this helps anyone I'm 5'8" and with the strap fully extended I can reach in and touch the bottom of the bag without pulling the bag to dig around."
"I was looking for a new purse was a little larger than the De Young crossbody bag I’ve been using. The Ashland is spacious and has lots of storage pockets. The soft leather feels soft to the touch and the Maritime color is beautiful. Although I like the blue and brown combination, I would have preferred the base of the purse to be blue rather than brown."
"Absolutely love this bag! Products from The Sak always hold up well and I'm beyond happy with my purchase. I do wish they would use a different shipping partner though. OnTrac had no communication and zero customer service skills. No tracking updates were provided (app still showing "order placed, awaiting package" even though I received my order today."
"Gorgeous bag. Beautiful color. Impeccably made. So many compliments!"
"I love the color and craftsmanship of this bag. Perfect fall accessory."
"I love this bag. The leather is soft and strong and the colors are beautiful. Lots of compartments for phone, wallet, makeup."
"Love this! Perfect size and design for daily use and the craftsmanship easily as good as substantially more expensive handbags. Color is great and love the use of contrasting saddle color. Looks amazing with the indigo bag"
"Love this and have already gotten many compliments from total strangers!"
"Awesome bags. We'll made and luxurious leather"
