FoamerAce Report post Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) Hello Musa. The pockets are pretty straight forward. I used one piece of leather for each pocket. I cut it wide enough for an 'S' fold gusset on each side and stitched the sides down. Then just riveted the bottom corners and stitched across the bottom. The lining is cotton fabric. If I were to do it again, I'd have glued it down better. I was afraid if I used too much glue it would feel hard to the touch so most of it is floating with only the edges really glued down hard. I built the bag on commission, so I don't know how it's holding up today. But I did do a one year follow up, and the owner reported that he still used it every day and was in good shape.

HaloJones Report post Posted November 22, 2017 I have made two of these bags, one was the kit & one I cut myself using the kit as a pattern I agree that the holes are large, but for a first time it was easier, also the handle is weak; on the self cut I put in a backing strip. that bag is my daily laptop bag & it's still going strong 5yr on Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
