31 of 63 reviews of the City mention the quality of the leather and the build, and 21 describe what fits, often a laptop and notebooks. Of the 4 reviews under five stars, three mention a late delivery, one of them also the price.
Absolutely love this briefcase! It’s beautifully made, professional-looking, and has plenty of room without feeling bulky. The quality is excellent, and it’s perfect for keeping everything organized for work. Very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it!
Color: Elegant BlackI use my Von Baer City bag daily and it still looks pretty much brand new. It’s durable, elegant, and very well made – has that premium feel you don’t often get even at this price. Got a few compliments already, both at work and when travelling.
Finally decided to leave feedback. I received my bag (City laptop bag) last September and have been using it for a while. Bag was better than expected, absolutely gorgeous, and I really love it. It's still in perfect condition, I use it for work mainly for my laptop and some documents. While using it I got minor scratches on the leather, but managed to fix them using some leather wax from a local shop. Will continue to use it, can't say anything bad so far. Highly recommend this shop and their products (at least the city laptop bag).
Really well-made leather laptop bag. Materials and workmanship are excellent, communication was clear, and the final product met expectations. Very satisfied overall.
super happy with my laptop bag. Looks, feels and smells great right out of the box! Build quality seems excellent so far, only had it a day so no long term testing yet. Love the full grain leather
I looked closely at many manufacturers and many many bags over the course of a couple years. Von Baer checked the most boxes for me. Straightforward pricing, beautiful build, design that will look great decades from now, top quality Italian leather, range of styles and sizes, beautiful bags. Have only had one service interaction but was impressed. Should be on anyone's list considering a purchase.
Color: Elegant BlackProduct is top-notch (materials and craftsmanship), expensive
It was the fastest delivery I've ever had buying online! No issues so I didn't even need to message the store. The bag is great quality, really like the leather and design. Pretty much exactly what I saw in the pictures. Very happy and would 100% recommend.
Received a laptop bag from Von Baer for my husband's bday—he's super picky with bags but LOVED it. leather's real nice. definitely would buy again.
Best bag I’ve ever owned. Classic look, great appearance, yet very functional
I had never heard of Von Baer before, but I still decided to buy a laptop briefcase from them. First off I received it very fast! The bag has a very solid design and feels high quality. It’s not as light as it looks which probably shows that the leather and hardware are quite good. I really love how it looks with my suit. I’ve used it for work for a month now and have had no problems so far
No regrets. Couldn’t decide between two colors so confusion but the photos really helped me compare side by side. Went with the solid brown, no regrets. Feels elegant but still chill.
I would definitely recommend yoir products
Color: Elegant BlackThe craftsmanship on this bag is next level. I’m a bit of a leather nerd and could immediately tell this is made from top-quality vegetable-tanned leather, just as said. It has a bit of a rugged look that enhances one's overall appearance, depending on what you're wearing and how you style your outfit. Fits my 15” MacBook perfectly, and there’s space for other bits and bobs too. Would definitely recommend for anyone who appreciates quality and style.
Let me tell you, this bag screams class. The leather is top-tier and the interior is well-organized. The external side pocket is such a great addition too as I’m able to quickly grab my keys and what not.
Overall, this is a 5-star bag. Excellent materials and fit & finish. High quality leather and zippers. The ordering process was seamless, and the laser engraving service was a breeze. Only recommendation would be a bit more padding on the shoulder strap, but that’s not enough to detract from the bag overall. Would recommend this over similar canvas bags from the typical fashion brands.
Color: Solid Brownfast delivrey incredible quality.
Color: Solid BrownI have completed a review already
Color: Solid BrownThe quality and structure of the bag was flawless! A wonder product and great customer service!
Color: Solid BrownI bought this bag as a gift for my wife who loves red leather crossbody bags. The storage on the inside is well-designed and gives her plenty of space for all that she needs. She has been using it for nearly a month now and says the quality of the bag is excellent. She feels extremely professional carrying this bag and has already received several compliments on how nice it looks.
Color: Deep RedFirst, let me say, the bag looks even better in person! The black leather is so sleek and it matches with any outfit. It holds my MacBook and notebooks easily. The cotton lining inside feels soft but is tough at the same time. Love that there's also designated space for stuff like pens. Couldn’t ask for more in a professional laptop bag. Love it! I also really love how they attended to me when I reached out concerning engraving the bag. I couldn't decide what would look best initially, they were helpful.
High quality & spacious.
it is a very expensive bag however it's on par with the quality
Very satisfied with the purchase! Inside zip compartment is smaller for surface pro but overall no complaints!
Bag was delivered two days late.
Amazing quality! Immediate game changer, head turner, and conversation starter. Dress for the job you want also includes accessories. The "City" will level up your professionalism immediately.
I’ve been using this laptop bag for about two months and I'm really liking it. The leather is thick, the design is great, it’s professional without being too showy, has quite the space. I also appreciate the length of the shoulder strap. I'm a tall guy and I usually struggle to find bags with the perfect or close to perfect length for me. It’s absolutely a great buy.
I commute about an hour into London every dayand this bag has made my life so much easier. It’s super lightweight and the leather strap makes it quite comfortable to carry, even when it’s packed with my laptop and books. Plus, I love that it has feet at the bottom so it doesn’t get dirty when I put it on the floor of the train.
I love everything about this bag. It is a purchase I am so glad I made. Not like the money was something I could part ways with easily but I was already so tired of cheap laptop bags/briefcases and the issues that come with them after a few months of usage. But I can already tell that this bag will be different. I am certain it durable. I checked every part of it thoroughly and used it for two weeks before deciding to drop my review.I highly recommend it. The only reason I am giving it four stars rather than 5 is that there was a slight delay in delivery.
amazing quality
I needed a bag that I could carry my work stuff in and still look put together. This bag is IT! Super sleek, fits my 15” laptop, and even my tablet slides rigt in without any problem. Plus, it just FEELS so luxurious and high-end. The customer service was quick to answer my questions too. Worth every penny!
The materials used are superb - I can imagine the effort made to make this product. Their sustainability aspirations and their vision to fulfill 100% 9and value-add0 to their customers' needs are key drivers for me in selecting VB product...
This bag is everything I wanted. Quality is outstanding. It looks cool. Most importantly, it fits my laptop perfectly with extra space for other things.
This laptop bag is exactly what I was looking for. I’m a graphic designer, so I always need a bag that can carry my laptop, sketchbooks, and digital tab without being too bulky. It’s spacious enough for all my gadgets but still cool and professional. I’ve taken it to client meetings, and it definitely helps me look put-together. I even got the my initials added, looks so nice!
Perfect quality! Very satisfied with the product!
Hi thank you, purchase was fast, delivered on time. Quality very good. 👍👍👍
No complaints.
I have nothing but good things to say about this bag. It is a tough work horse.
Been using this bag for about a year now and it still looks as good as the day I got it. I love how the leather has aged, it’s developed a nice patina that gives it character. Plus, it’s very practical. I carry my 15-inch laptop, 10-inch ipad and it fits everything else I need for work. The strap is comfortable for long commutes too. It's nice that it has those protective metal feets. Overall, an excellent product!
Been using the City bag for a few months now, no sign of wear so far. Very stylish and equally comfortable to carry. The shoulder strap is comfortable, and it’s surprisingly spacious, much more than I expected… I was comparing it to my old bag not knowing that this looks slimmer while accommodating more. It’s so interesting. If you live in New York or some other really busy city and need to commute long distances, this bag will serve you realy well.
When I decided that it was time to change my old stuff, it took a while for me to finally find what I was looking for. I needed something nice but also still spacious enough. Actually, it had to be very spacious. Von Baer was one of the brands my business partner recommended to me and after doing further research, I could see that they were good at what they did. When I received the bag, I definitely wast disappointed. In fact, it exceeded my expectations.
Love this bag! You can feel the quality in every stitch. The leather has this rich texture that feels like it will only get better with time. I use it for both work and casual outings and it gets compliments often. Also, shout out to the team for fast delivery to Austria. Packaging was on point too. Truly a solid purchase.
I bought the City bag specifically for business trips, and it hasn’t let me down. It’s got enough room for my laptop, documents, and even some smaller travel essentials. Plus, it still looks sleek and professional. The shoulder straps are pretty comfortable even when the bag is heavy. So, it's easy to carry around. I also really like that it has metal feet so it doesn’t get scuffed when I set it down. Von Baer really thought of everything!
A 10/10 bag
My first VB bag and I'm liking it.
Absolutely the most finely crafted bag I’ve ever seen. Everything about it screams quality. I hope to use this bag for many years to come. And from the looks of it, I will. The color, leather, the zippers, right down to the canvas interior are crafted by hands that know what they’re doing and an eye for detail. Just buy it already!! You won’t be disappointed!!
It is high quality as well as spacious and most importantly for me, it looks cool! I am now working in Japan and everyone seems to have a defined sense of style. I am trying to keep up.
I chose this bag and I wanted to get a smaller laptop briefcase then what I normally carry. This fit the bill perfectly. More than enough room for my laptop, my iPad and my planner. In addition the zipper pocket in the middle provides easy access to my cords and my AirPods. My only complaint would be that the shoulder strap could be a bit longer. But that can also just be me, as I am rather tall at just over 6ft 7in (2 meters), and like to carry it cross body. Most people would not have this issue. One final thought on the leather. It is soft to the touch, but feels very luxurious. Von Baer has done an excellent job.
Reply from Von BaerThank you, Mark, for being a wonderful customer 💗. We will definitely take your feedback seriously, and try to improve the shoulder strap.I’m always on the go because I work between Dublin and Malahide and my city bag is everywhere with me. It is big enough that I usually put my laptop, documents, makeup, and even put a book and snack in there at times. In the past few months, I have used the bag so much that one would almost feel pity for it. Yet, it is still in good shape. You can hardly tell that I've been using it for that long, let alone using it so hard.
This bag has everything one can possibly need in a functional and yet cool-looking bag for work. The compartments are so well-thought through
Decided to get this for my stepdad, he turned 55 two days ago. He's been the best father figure one can ask for and I just had to repay it in my own little way. This is the most expective item I have ever bought for anyone (not even mum) or myself but seeing his reaction made it worth it. The way he teared up had me in tears along with him. He loves leather stuff but I didn't know he'd be so visibly touched by this. If you are looking for a great gift for your dad, I think you should choose this, the brown color especially.
I bought this bag as a birthday present for my husband and had it engraved with his name. He loves it and started using it for work almost immediately. Totally recommend if you're looking for a thoughtful and luxurious gift.
It is ageing nicely, the leather is still in great condition but it looks even better, it's kinda hard to explain... It doesn't look so different from the same bag that arrived from the courier months ago. However, it also isn't the same one. The leather had developed character, tha'ts the best way to put it. Of course, it could also be due to how much I use it. It's my most used bag because it is spacious and easy to carry and also pairs well with almost anything I'm wearing. I highly recommend it.
Outstanding quality. It truly is meant for the rigours of the city.
For the first time ever, I was buying something high-end. I was really looking forward to getting the package. I was very excited. But one day after the due date, two days after the expected date, three days after... It was three days after that my bag finally arrived. I know it's not an issue with VB as they shipped it exactly when they said they would. But still, that was disappointing. The packaging is nice, though and the bag is a real beaut but doesnt change the fact that is is expensive
I’ve gotten more compliments on this bag than my actual outfit, for real! I've had colleagues radomly ask where I got it from. The leather looks THAT good.
Undeniable quality!
I needed a laptop bag that looked professional but still had personality, and the City bag absolutely delivers. It’s spacious, fits all my papers and laptop, and is a joy to carry around. My boss even asked where I got it.
I had some questions before buying... They were quick and really helpful. The bag itself is fantastic. It’s exactly what I needed for work. The black leather is classy and it holds all my stuff easily. Couldn’t be happier with my purchase!
Im giving it 5 stars. Im very satisfied with my order
Excellent quality bag very nice color. Von Baer has a very helpful and supportive service.
Buying this bag was the right choice. I really do need to deal with the fact that I have spent much more on this bag than I have on other major stuff, but I don't even mind. It's worth it.
This slim laptop bag's look is deceptive. It is much more spacious than it seemed. Very nice!
