Your bag has an acceptable number of pockets and compartments, the straps look hella sturdy and the stitching is neat. I love your bag.

The best part about making stuff yourself is - 1) It's exactly the way YOU want it, and 2) If something goes wrong, it's your own fault :D

Thanks! I made it from an Instructable online. Measured and cut everything myself, no stencil used.

Messenger bag is a more updated term for satchel; they're basically the same thing. Source: I worked in accessories production

I thought that satchels were a bag, but a 'messenger-bag' was a sack, like a duffel-bag.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Messenger bags are generally square or rectangular in shape with a large flap closure (with or without fasteners).

Let's say you were interested in selling bags such as these. How much would one sell for in your head.

Can i ask what you use to sew the leather? Like if you use a machine what type?

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I make holes using a chisel, and sew the leather by hand.
