Soft, yet durable leather. Tough, smooth zippers. Every pouch is lined with fabric, and some have zippered pouches inside of the larger pouch...they're also lined . The design is convenient for getting in, and out of, and there are plenty of places to store things. The leather handle for hand-carry is well built and comfortable in your hand, and the shoulder straps are comfortable and well constructed. Frye products have been well constructed from quality material in my experience, so I have no doubt that this backpack will last for years....worth the price! Read more
I was looking for an all-leather backpack that a could fit a 15" MacBook Pro, so this fit the bill. I love the color and feel of the leather (I got the dark brown), and the quality is outstanding. There is plenty of room to fit all sorts of items with two main compartments. It's clear that Frye did not skimp on the back or straps of the bag, which are made of leather as well. In some cases with other brands, they try to cut costs by using fabric on the back and straps. One other thing to note - a lot of reviews mention that the bag is counterfeit as there is no logo on the product that they received. Frye revised the design of the bag recently to have just a small stamped logo on the bottom right. If you are purchasing the bag from Amazon directly (shipped and sold), it is indeed a genuine Frye product. I've double checked with Frye in-store and looked on their website. Update: after 8 months of almost daily use, the bag is still holding up, no complaints! Still just as well built as the first day, maybe a bit more broken in. The leather does seem to scratch easily, but I just apply a bit of Bick4 and the scratches go away. Read more
I am in the leather goods / upholstery industry and work with high-quality leathers on a daily basis. The Frye Logan has been an item I've been watching for a while and had to pull the trigger recently. I travel for business and pleasure on a regular basis and need a rugged, yet polished and refined bag that carries everything I need. The leather is soft and supple and the hardware / zippers are well-made and durable. Can't wait to see how this bag wears over the years, I am very pleased with this purchase thus far! Read more
It's a really nice bag, especially in the gorgeous Blue leather. You will want to very lightly lubricate the zipper for ease of motion, say with some genuine beeswax. Very versatile bag! Heavy duty leather quality and construction, yet it remains lightweight and stylish. Padded straps are a key detail, and only a very subtle brand logo near the bottom. A + Read more
I’ve used this backpack for almost a year now. I purchased it to replace a leather backpack that had been used until it died and couldn’t be repaired again. When I first received it, I hated it because it was stiff and so new. But after using it, the leather has softened quite a bit and has molded to wear more comfortably. The color is a beautiful dark cognac color and it has so many compartments to keep my things organized. Side pockets were too small for a water bottle, but they too have stretched to hold one. I stretched the leather by putting items that fit tightly and kept increasing in size so that it now holds a water bottle! Frye makes great products and this no exception. I no longer miss my first unbranded leather backpack and don’t know how I lived without the compartments! It’s also great to travel with and has been on 3 trips since I got it. Read more
Such a trendy bag but I’m so disappoint after using for 6months the strap is about to fall off. Definitely not worth the money. Read more
I love Frye products and purchased this due to shoulder pain from carrying a heavy bag on one shoulder. This definitely is worth the money. I have packed the bag to full capacity (laptop, iPad, notebooks, wallet, etc.) and nothing seemed like it was going to fall apart. Comfortable straps with very sturdy connections. I have received several compliments about this bag. HIGHLY recommend!! Read more
Just got the bag a week ago and so far it’s excellent. Attractive and high quality leather - good craftsmanship inside and out. It looks durable and heavy and actually lighter than I expected. This is due to the nice comfortable straps. Read more
