these bags have a depth of 10 inches, whereas most airline seems to provide a maximum depth allowance of 9 inches, so how does it fit? 🤔 [For example, Delta Air lines, - Individual length, width and height measurements may not exceed 22” x 14” x 9” (56 cm x 35 cm x 23 cm) respectively]

[@recursivefunk]

I also own this bag. The review is great, but no review can do this bag justice it really is incredible in person.

[@Mountainmovingstudios]

Agreed. I own one too. Excellent Bag.

[@RayLRhodes]

Do you find it easy to carry through air travel?

[@recursivefunk]

@@RayLRhodes yep. It’s comfortable to carry and fits well in overhead compartments. The side pocket for laptop is particularly useful.

[@gorviv529]

How strong/comfortable is the strap? Will it dig into your shoulder when fully packed?

[@韓国J]

one of the downsides to leather duffels/weekenders is the weight of the bag itself. waxed canvas/twill equivalents weigh much less. hard to choose!

[@CB-Lion]

Great video! I’ve had my Weekender Bag for over a year and it’s the only one I’ll ever need. Satchel and Page is known for their timeless look and simple mechanics. I have a couple of other Satchel and Page products and I feel just as happy with those items as with the weekender bag. They always get me compliments and they get the job done 👌🏽

[@GovernerOfNYC]

Hey can you review the Allen Edmond American Grain Collection - Half Moon Zip Duffle Bag been searching all over for a review haven’t found one yet

[@ItsDesmond]

Hey! Thanks for the recommendation. Yeah - I can definitely look into it and see if I can get my hands on that bag for a review.

[@TheSwimpsu99]

Do you have the carry all? THere are NO reviews on it

[@stuntmanjohnny]

I noticed I tend to scuff or scratch fairly easily when going in and out of my bag. Should I be concerned or will that wear add to the bag?

[@beaglesnlove580]

Hey how do you like the bag so far?

[@crimsonfrozenheart]

Will airlines allow this + cabin luggage?

[@humz437]

you should check out their garment bag its great

[@adampilarski7083]

That’s the next item I’m going to try to talk my wife into 😅

[@stewyhunter9130]

I love your jacket. Can you please tell us more?

[@ItsDesmond]

Hey. Thanks for watching. It’s a leather bomber from All Saints. Picked it up in store - so not sure if they still have this color. But they tend to have leather bombers in different colors all year round.

[@monkeypawism]

Seems heavy.

[@fredsheriff7107]

Desmond, nice review. I am also looking at the Frank Clegg weekend bag. Twice the price as this one. Have you looked at that brand and compared them to Satchel and Page?

[@adampilarski7083]

Even though SP is fantastic, if you’re able to afford Frank Clegg, you should go for it. You’ll have it for life and never regret your purchase.

[@trentgilliam5192]

This bag would be absolutely perfect for me if it had a luggage pass through option.

[@daylight178]

Good observation

[@Ender.wigginn]

I was looking at a Ghurka weekender (Cavaler II) and while I think I like the asthetics a bit more, this Satchel and Page is WAYYYYY better value imo. The build quality is amazing and it is suede lined all over. Also I love the accessory/tech pocket on this, the fact it could fit my razer blade 15 is a huge selling point. The Ghurka bag I was looking at has no specific spot for a laptop and opening the whole bag to access pockets inside is super inconvenient for flying. With good rolling or some packing cubes and an extra pair of shoes, I could probably pack for an entire week, especially if I carry my small 12 inch satchel as a personal carry for air pods, a book, some snacks, etc. Maybe less than a week if I'm traveling somewhere cold. This def just moved to the top of my list.

[@ItsDesmond]

Thanks for the insight! I gotta check out the Ghurka. But 100% agree on this weekender and other being way more functional with an easy access laptop section. I hate getting to the airport or a lounge and having to dig through my bag just to get my laptop. I like quick access to my laptop, iPad, chargers and headphones without unpacking my whole bag 🤣

[@Monstah-xd9hc]

How can you tell the difference between the weekender & the carry all? They look the exact same.

[@jaimunts]

Great review! I am very interested in this product based on your review. Is it possible to review the Carry All by Satchel and Page? I am a daily NYC commuter and would like a more streamlined version for EDC. The EDC items that tag along with me every day include typical gym attire (sneakers, hoodie, sweats, water bottle), my glass lunch container, iPad, Airpods, charging cables, water bottle, and charging cables. How heavy would this bag be? Maybe you could provide some recommendations. Please keep up the great work! Thank you sir.

[@davidjoseph4459]

Does it look the same color that the website photos look? I saw one in person and it was much more muted brown color… wondering if the person who owned it did something or if the website photos are altered to make it look a richer brown???

[@vegasplayer7387]

Great review! I’m looking at this, the garment bag, as well as the Couselor. Beautiful, well made bags and you went into some nice details. Thanks!

[@broadstpreppers7293]

Did you end up getting the GB?

[@carsonnguyen4423]

I also own this bag. It’s stunning but people NEED to know this thing is heavy AF empty.. but when you stuff it with items for a 4 day getaway and it gets heavy really quick. Ideal for use from car to to hotel/room/destination but not ideal for carrying around in a big airport. I’m a strong and athletic guy but I get tired of lugging this thing. I mainly use it for weekend road trips which is perfect.

[@ItsDesmond]

100% agree. The full leather construction is great - but so heavy. Definitely best for short trips from transport to destination.

[@rayjay1234]

Oh that’s interesting to know. I’ve got a 5 day trip to the US from Australia coming up. I was planning on just carrying this as carryon but maybe I’ll need to reconsider and use a roller instead - shame.

[@carsonnguyen4423]

@@rayjay1234 just load it up like you would for your 5 day trip and try it out at home and see how it feels

[@BLohr707]

Great video bro! Between you and another KZbinr, have sold me on this bag! Pointing out details on leather making/design that I wouldn’t of know about. Love the attention to details. Also feeling like your getting such a great product for price point. These are going to keep going up in price. Much gratitude! One

[@genekenny3704]

Just purchased this bag based on your review 👍thanks .

[@beaglesnlove580]

How do u like the bag so far?

[@cuervo3836]

Thanks for the review!! Loved how you actually packed the bag with a hunch of stuff

[@TJS483]

Thank you for the thorough review. I purchased one yesterday when S&P shared your picture on instagram

[@ItsDesmond]

Thanks for watching! It’s such a beautiful piece. I think you’re gonna love it. The weight takes a bit to get used to but totally worth the quality of the build.

[@TJS483]

@@ItsDesmond my biggest concern is getting on a smaller regional jet to a short trip to Chicago and it not fitting in the overhead compartment, forcing me to check it.

[@ItsDesmond]

@@TJS483 solid concern - but from experience . It will definitely fit over head. As large as it looks and as much stuff as it fits - it still meets the over head requirements.

[@Will67267]

It's a great bag, craftsmanship is one of the best. The problem with this bag is that it's too heavy and bulky when it is full. I borrowed one from my friend and travelled with it in Europe for 3 weeks. It's too heavy and uncomfortable to carry on trains, planes, hotels and walking. I prefer my Frank Clegg signature duffle for travel because of the size and comfort.

[@rsixx6548]

is your Clegg duffle that much lighter Will? I'm considering both but wonder if Clegg gives me 2x the value for 2x the money.

[@jeromesmith5921]

Very thorough and relatable especially after you provided that packing example. I'm waiting on my bag to be delivered as I type this message. Thank you, sir!

[@LeachyPeachy99]

I just bought a Satchel and Page Weekender and Mailbag based on your review. Thank you!

[@Pq6274]

Great video! really enjoy your introduction! thanks!

[@OS993]

how much weight can it hold?

[@ItsDesmond]

Hmm probably a good amount of weight. It’s a very sturdy construction but I wouldn’t recommend carrying more than like 30 lbs in there. Not really designed to haul dense heavy gear. It’s more for weekend outfits and normal travel essentials

[@parrotheaddanny]

You do such great work. Thanks.

[@GovernerOfNYC]

Thank you for this review I just got mines 2days ago love it

[@mckinleyp13]

Great review! I’m convinced

[@5454randy]

Great, thorough review! Can you do more S&P reviews?

[@ItsDesmond]

Thanks! Yes, I’ve got a couple more in the works. The councilor briefcase is next. There’s the S&P leather bomber review on my channel as well.

[@jimmylee2388]

Great review.

[@audiguy1978]

I'm not quite sure what material this bag is made from, or what country it was sourced from...
