Almost perfect!

I wish the strap connections to the bag were made out of leather! It cheapens the quality! For the money the entire bag and straps should be leather! It’s a let down! I hope they last!!!

This is a sturdy

This is a sturdy. heavy duty back pack. It is also a HEAVY back pack. That said, it will hold my laptop, my camera, and a reference book or two with ease and keep them safe from the environment. It was very stiff when I received it but after some use it is just stiff. I am hoping it will become more flexible with more use. I like it!

This leather backpack is not quite what I envisioned based on the pictures

This leather backpack is not quite what I envisioned based on the pictures. I was imagining a soft leather with a worn look to it. This is not soft leather. It is very stiff leather. That's not necessarily bad, just not what I thought the description photo depicted. It probably will soften up in time and age gracefully giving it more character. I hope so anyway. Having said that, the construction and materials are good quality. Heavy duty zippers are a little stiff, but seem to be loosening up with use. The brass clasps for the top flap require some effort to line up to secure properly. The back is a canvas type material with solid stitching. The main sleeve holds my 15" laptop, but not a 17". It looks like it would protect well, but does not have any real padding. There are a couple of side pouches or pockets that don't seem all that useful to me.

Crazy horse leather is actually a cow leather. You may find this answer is too short, so we would like to give you more detail about this question.
Crazy horse leather also referred to as saddle leather is made by applying, a kind of wax to a full grain leather surface that has been buffed and smoothed out. The leather has been treated to look and feel aged while retaining its toughness. The more you use it, the better and more unique it looks.

Crazy horse leather is made by applying a special kind of wax to a full grain cow leather surface that has been smoothed out. Through the application of the wax, plays a very distinctive role in the uniqueness of crazy horse leather. It will cause small changes to the material's shape and appearance. This gives it a unique retro, vintage look which ages beautifully over time.

Simply wax itself. Wax is highly resistant to water and other liquids. So, when applied to leather it protects the leather fibers far better than that of any other substance used on leather today. This allows the crazy horse leather to withstand much of what is an issue for most other types of leather. It doesn't stain fabrics or clothing. Because of this, it is the ideal choice of leather for making vintage style leather bags. Also, every crazy horse leather bags are unique due to the this manufacturing process. It feels really great to think that you have a unique product with you.

As we mentioned before, each bag is unique due to special wax and manufacturing. This application makes every bag distinctive. They are durable and strong. Wax itself protects the leather from water or moisture-related damages. The wax strengthens the leather fibers to the point that when the fibers are rubbed or scratched the natural leather color changes a shade or two, without immediately reversing back.

Through wear, naturally, the crazy horse leather will become full of these scratches. The rubbed and scratched areas that show the changes in shades of color, are what reflects the so loved antique and vintage appearance.
