This is so cute and seems really well made. Snaps seem sturdy and very functional. Strap is a nice soft twill that looks and feels good. I would not consider this a messenger bag though! This is purse sized. You can easily fit a standard letter-size US spiral notebook inside (several actually) and from side to side you can fit a 3-ring binder, but you cannot close the bag as the binder spine would stick up and out at least 2” above the main compartment’s zipper opening. The zippers slide nicely and the canvas is a heavyweight feeling fabric. Would definitely keep as a purse, will not work for my wished-for use as a slim school bag.

I ordered this bag with low expectations, hoping it would be great. Well, I’m pleasantly surprised. What a great travel bag! Just the right size for a messenger bag/purse. Not to big and not to small. And, the strap is long enough to go crossbody. I can even carry a camera in it as well. The canvas is thick and sterdy. Not waterproof in a downpour, but a little rain wouldn’t hurt it at all. Would definitely recommend.

I like this bag a lot. It’s comfortable to wear and really cute. Holds lots of stuff. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because if you shut the front strap it takes a while to get it open. A snap would be better.

Hemos estado buscando un bolso como este desde hace tiempo… por los comentarios pensé que era muy grande … pero es el tamaño perfecto, buena calidad .. lo único que cambiaría es la correa de enfrente .

My husband and I recently took a trip to Italy. Before this trip, I researched all types of shoulder bags, purses, smaller backpacks to take on our trip. In some places in Italy, especially in Rome, pickpocketers are common, so I wanted a bag that I could secure, but also one that was a good size, not too big or too small. The strap can be shortened, so it can be carried as a shoulder bag or lengthened to wear as a cross body. It has a lot of pockets on the inside. Underneath the flap, there are two pockets that snap and another pocket that is a zipper compartment. It is very roomy and there were some days that I ended up putting several items (water bottle, souvenirs) into it without any issue. I really appreciated the durability and the added security that I had with it that I could snap the flap closed and wear it in front of me. I wish they had a lighter color to choose, but other than that, it was absolutely perfect for my trip. It is definitely a great alternative to having to wear a backpack and it will hold more than some of the crossbody (fanny pack style) bags that I looked at.

Just got this baby out of the box and am immediately blown away with the quality! So impressively well-made considering the price, feels very secure and sturdy. Nice and simple, tasteful but great for people like me who don’t want anything overly flashy. Holds up the vintage design without feeling flimsy, which is a problem I’ve had with a lot of other bags. Simplistic look allows for plenty of customization with pins or whatever you’d like!
I was looking for a messenger bag that could carry my 7×10 sketchbook and supplies, and this makes for the perfect bag for my daily travels. The large pocket inside is a lot roomier than I was expecting- same goes for the outer pocket, which provides more than enough space to fit the markers, pens, etc. that I use for sketching and whatnot. Can’t wait to bring this fella on all my travels! Very, very happy with this purchase 🙂

We ordered the Gootium Canvas Messenger Bag in the army Green color. It arrived in the expected time frame, nice and on schedule!
Let me start by saying first, that we ordered this bag several months ago and I decided to wait to write this review until I had plenty of time to use the bag and see how it wears after some use. Secondly, I have been looking for a good quality messenger bag for YEARS now (at least ten years)- and have looked in just about every store I could think of. I just wanted a basic, well made, messenger bag that zipped closed for security.
When I found this Gootium bag here on Amazon, I was very excited to finally find something that met my requirements, seemed well made, and was not super expensive!! (I have since come to believe that $30 or $40 is a GREAT DEAL for this awesome bag!!!)
When I got this in the mail, this first thing I noticed was how nicely it was packaged. Also, I was so excited to see that it really did appear in person just as it appeared in the pictures! The army green color does look a bit different in person (a little more of a khaki/brownish green color) but that was not something i was very concerned with- and also, it is not unusual for army greens to have that brownish hue to them. Also it really is a very minor difference from the picture, not very noticeable.
I started using the bag right away, and I am still using it every day! I have to say– this is the nicest bag/purse I have ever gotten!!!! I am a typical female who loves her bags, and I have had all sorts of bags over the years… I have gotten things from army surplus stores, etc, and still have not had anything that has been made so well and with such quality!!
I was hesitant to order a purse online, but I am so very glad I tried this Gootium bag– i know that this is a bag I will get a ton of use out of, for years to come!! (I also plan to post an update after more time has passed, to let shoppers know how it has continued to hold up)
The quality of the canvas is great- nice and thick, without being all stiff (in fact, it even has a softness to it). The seams are nice and secure, and the strap is sewn directly into the bag. In my experience, the places where most bags go wrong is where the strap connects to the body of the bag (especially since my bags tend to be rather heavy since i carry so much stuff with me! =D )– this strap is not only made of a thick, strong material (even thicker than the canvas in the body portion)- but the strap is also soft for how thick and strong the material is (it is also a nice thickness/width and does not dig into my shoulder). It is reinforced by the square and X stitching in the place where it is sewn to the body, and in addition to the extra stitching, it also has a round, metal piece that is reinforcing the strap to the bag!!
The metal hardware appears to be brass and is of superior quality. Also- I am in love with the zippers!! They are also brass, and zip very smoothly– they have not caught once since i have used this bag. They are sewn in very well, just like the rest of the stitching. Also, the leather pulls are very nice and are holding up very well.
The size of this bag is also perfect! It is not a small bag, but also not huge either!! I carry one of those large check-book-sized wallets and this bag accommodates my large wallet, coin purse, make up bag, small notebook, several sets of keys, tons of charging cords/cables, bottles of advil, and tons of other small items that organize nicely in the pockets.
I LOVE that it isn’t overly organizer-ish, yet it also isn’t just a big pocket either… It has the perfect number of pockets to keep things orderly, yet still open enough to find everything easily!
I could go on even further about how much i love this bag, but i am sure you get the picture by now! XD
**I would highly recommend this bag, and I would definitely purchase from this company and seller again!!! **
~~I am continually impressed by the quality of this bag <3 Hope this has helped!!
***Review Update July 26, 2022**
Just wanted to post a quick update to this review… It has been over 4 years since I got this bag, and I am still using it regularly. It is still in wonderful condition… actually, it’s pretty much in the same condition as when I got it brand new. It has broken-in a bit, canvas has softened up somewhat. I have swapped out to some different bags in that time frame, but I find myself going back to this bag again and again- when I just want a reliable, SECURE bag that will hold the necessities, plus a few extras. (Again- this size is great cuz I can keep everything I need, and it also helps to limit how much stuff I cram into my bag and then forget about! lol!)
Over the past four years, I have been so impressed with this first bag, that I have since bought several other Gootium bags. I have two other messenger bags from them, a backpack, the little wristlet bag, a duffel bag, and two other purse-style bags. Needless to say, I am thrilled with this brand.. and whenever I need a quality, reliable, secure bag.. this is my go-to.
I know I probably sound like a spokesperson for them at this point.. but I really am just a basic consumer and i am not being incentivized in any way to say this stuff. I am just really impressed to find this quality for the money. These days, it isn’t easy to find something that lasts and is made well. And I have wasted too much money on junk bags and purses that don’t hold up.
Oh- one more detail- i have not tried washing any of these bags yet. I have had major issues in the past with washing bags and purses in the machine (a lesson i learned the hard way!)- so that will be a major test as to how well they hold up! When i cross that bridge, I will come back and update this again and let you all know how it goes.
Anyways, hope this was helpful! Shopping online can be difficult, especially when you are trying to find something specific and you need to know the actual quality of an item (especially something like this, that you really rely on for day-to-day, and you need to be able to trust that your wallet and valuables are stored securely)
God Bless!!! <3

I’ve been using this bag every workday to carry my lunch and other items for the past 3-4 months. It’s well-made, durable, and looks just like I expected from the photos. Great materials, great color, good size, great strap, nice closures, etc. I may remove the Gootium leather logo on the flap as some other reviewers have done; it just looks too new and pristine. The bag doesn’t have any solidity to it; there’s no stiffness or structure to it, so it’s floppy. Overall I’m really pleased with it. I love the way it looks and it functions well for my intended purpose to cart my lunch and other items back and forth to work. It’s a great bag!
