I got the 10X backpack mainly for flights and it worked great under the seat. I had my laptop, headphones, charger, camera, passport and a light sweater in there. Everything was easy to grab without digging around. I really appreciate that the laptop compartment is padded.
I bought this bag in red for my new job, and let me tell you, it is beautiful. I love the leather. It looks unique and it even smells good. The hardware is top-notch and the finished are impeccable. I received multiple compliments on it, and each of those people asked me what brand it was. It gets an A+ for quality and appearance. Saying that, this bag is heavy. I wore it on my shoulder with a laptop and a few other items in it, and it was the heaviest shoulder bag I have ever worn. I tried to wear it as a backpack to give my shoulder a rest, but the straps are too long for it to properly fit on my frame (I'm a 5'4" female). I wish the straps had another hole so they could be adjusted to better fit a smaller frame. Overall, this is a quality, eye-catching bag. I do wonder though if I would have been more comfortable with one of their regular work bags.
Color: Deep RedGood choice. Go for good quality and subtle elegance
Color: Solid BrownGood quality, beautiful piece.
Color: Elegant BlackIt fits everything I need, which is the most important thing for me, alongside qualit. As for the look, it has this classic yet modern feel to it. I was impressed with the packaging too!
Im usually skeptical of expensive purchases even though I can very well afford them but this on is worth it. The quality of the leather is incredible and the design just leaves me wonderng how they thought about everything. Very organized, spacious, and versatile. Such a worthy investment.
Was expecting it to be heavier than this. It’s quite light and still the leather feels sturdy so it’s not some cheap stuff
I love me a bag that does it all!
This brand came highly recommended by my aunt and she's one heck of a fashionista. I can totally see why she loves them. My bag not only looks good but was also well packaged upon arrival. I can now attest to it that this brand is luxurious but also maintaining practical expectations.
I got the tan color. You just can’t go wrong with tan. It is gorgeous!
It’s a versatile bag, no question.
Beautiful bag, well worth the price
It’s been a few months of using this bag, it’s so on point. The leather feels premium, and it fits my laptop and other work essentials perfectly. Love the timeless look too.
The leather feels luxurious and the zippers are solid. I’ve used it for a few months now and it still looks brand new.
This is the bag you buy when you’re done with those fast-fashion bags that fall apart after a year. I got it in black and it’s honestly one of the ost beautiful things I’ve ever owned and in fact, the most expensive. Every stitch is neatly placed and it’s so versatile. I’ve used it for work and weekend trips. I was a bit hesitant about the price, but now I see it’s an investment.
The 10x is a fantastic bag. Von Baer has a great reputation for quality and I can affirm the reviews. The leather quality is outstanding, the fittings are seemly and sturdy, and there's an unmistakable attention to detail in the piece's craftsmanship. Beyond product quality, the buying experience was great as well. Von Baer made great recommendations on the personalization of the bag I purchased and we communicated directly with executives during the purchase journey.
Color: Solid BrownEvery minimalist needs a bag like this!
I’m blown away by the quality. I can bet it’s going to last me years. I mostly use it for work, quite spacious and sturdy. It’s also great that it converts to a backpack. I switch how I carry it, depending on what’s convenient or my outfit.
The quality of this leather bag is exceptional. The leather feels premium, and the bag is well-constructed as well as designed. The personalization was done perfectly. Customer service was excellen, they kept me updated throughout the process. Even when there was a slight issue with the courier, they helped me sort it out quickly. Highly recommended.
So, I had my eye on this bag for a while and finally caved in. And let me tell you, worth every cent!
So far so good - first trip out was flying out for vacation. The only thing I’d likely change would be to have actual compartments where the dividers are in the main section of the bag. But it’s a beautiful, awesome bag of amazing quality, and looks great; also the service was excellent.
I was looking for a special gift for my husband’s birthday, something that would last and that he’d actually use. When I stumbled upon the 10X bag, I knew it was the one! He travels for work all the time, and I knew he needed something functional but also stylish. Upon receiving the bag, it sure didn't disappoint. The leather is SO beautiful, soft but clearly durable, and it was delivered in this elegant packaging—seriously, the unboxing was an experience in itself! He hasn’t stopped using it since, and I’m so happy with how practical it is. Thanks, Von Baer
The bag is high quality and I have gotten many compliments!
it's a really lovely bag. I very satisfied with it. However, I am taking one star off for late delivery. that was my only issue.
Took this on a trip and was seriously impressed by how much it holds. Love that it can be carried as a backpack or messenger bag.
My husband had been wanting a laptop bag for a while now but knowing him, he was going to get some cheap stuff. I decided to get him this for our anniversary. He liked it but of course hated that I paid so much for it. He would have had me return it if I hadn't stood my ground and also, it's engraved with his intials. So, no chance. Anyway, I found him packing his travel items into this same bag. He's heading to Germany for an academic conference. It was such a funny moment.
I love how versatile this bag is. I switch between carrying it like a backpack and a shoulder bag depending on my mood and it always looks good.
Stop looking, this is the bag you have always wanted. It is absolutely beautiful. I hesitated as it is a splurge. But, if you ca swing it, it is worth it. Beautifully made, exquisite piece.
Superb craftsmanship and attention to detail. VB could ask a lot more for their product and it would be worth it.
Stands out for quality
Ordered this as a gift for my brother, and he loved it. The customer service representative went above and beyond to help me with engraving his initials… really good customer service for sure! The bag arrived in beautiful packaging, and the quality is just amazing. Thanks!
Exactly what I was looking for - a backpack that held its shape and doubled as a backpack/messenger bag for personal/work scenarios. Price is a bit more than various competitors, but I’m a firm believer in “you get what you pay for.” In this case, you are paying for top notch quality, materials, and design. Would buy from Von again! Jacob
Everyone who travels frequently, particularly brief formal/business/ trips, needs a bag like this. It is roomy enough to accommodate change of outfit, mini toiletries, laptop, and stuff, and still look portable enough to be carried into meetings, conference rooms and all. The shoulder bag is pretty comfortable too, so the bag doesnt slouch at all and if you prefer the handle, it works just as well. I also recommend getting it personalised, it makes it look even better and unique.
Versatility is the best thing about this bag. It's like buying a messenger bag, briefcase, and backpack all at once. The design is on a level of its own!
I love how it's designed plus the colour.
I am a travel nurse, so Ive gone through a fair share of bags in my time. This one though? Easily the best. The leather feels premium, the design is sleek and practical and it’s carry-on friendly! That’s always a big deal for me. Plus I got mine engraved, so it feels even more personal
wow, just wow. this is by far the most premium feeling bag ive ever owned. The quality of the leather is just out of this world. I got the tan colour. I think that might be the best colour available. it looks so good!
I’ve been searching literal years for the perfect bag. This backpack has so much versatility while being stylish.
I wanted a statement piece that would elevate my travel style and this leather bag has done just that! I travel quite a bit... the bag fits everything I need while still looking good. Even when heavily packed, it never looks bulgy. However, it does get really heavy when it's fully packed.
If you need a versatile bag, this is the one.
As a backpacker/digital nomad, this bag is everything!
Highly recommend!
I had to choose between getting this bag and the no.2 briefcase. Decided to go with this instead due to its versatilty. Another reason I chose this bag is that I already have another briefcase although it's quite old. I'd have given 5 stars because that's what the bag truly deserves. However, the delivery services was below my expectations. Not only did my bag arrive late but it was also delivered to the wrong location.
i like it ve ry much
Solid in every sense of the word
Absolutely over the moon with this bag. The leather feels top-notch, very smooth, and durable. Remarkable craftsmanship too. You can tell this isn’t some cheap imitation. I use it daily for work no issues with it so far! Well worth the price. Highly recommend!
For someone like me who travels constantly, this is a godsend. It fits perfectly as carry-on luggage and I’m able to pack not only my laptop but also all the essentials I need for a weekend trip. I also bought the luggage tag cos why not?
Let me just say this bag is a stunner. It’s got that kinda leather that you know will age like fine wine, you can smell it when you first open it, the leather smell just hits you. I’ve had it for about 3 months now, and it’s holding up really well, except a few scratches here and there - I could be more careful…. Fits my 16" MacBook Pro with no problem at all. I’m particularly impressed with the zippers—they glide smoothly, which is usually my issue with bags.
With external pockets on each side, this bag makes it so easy to quickly grab stuff you need. The inner compartment is also nice! It makes it so easy to organize your items, they won't be all over the place.
Good craftmanship but too expensive and also, why the late delivery?
Took a while for me to actually decide if I’d go ahead with the purchase or not because I have never spent this much on anything like this. However, I don’t regret buying it. In fact, now, I get why people prefer to buy something expensive that’s durable than something cheap and likely to fall apart quickly. This bag gets better with each use. I work from home so I have the opportunity to travel when I want, which means I travel quite often… inter-state and even internationally. What I love the most about this bag is how roomy it is and makes it easy to organize everything. My laptop has its slot, my hardcopy files have their space, clothes know where to go, toiletries go in the VB washbag I also bought. Of course, I also have to talk about how versatile it is? no one can tell whether I am going out casually or going on a trip because the bag is a makeshift-whatever-you-need. when I am in new places as well, most can tell that I am just visting since I am not carrying an bovious traveling bag. I guess I am starting to ramble on. But that;s just how much I have come to love the bag.
comes with a solid build!
The leather is the major highlight and the fact that it is a convertible compliments that.
Two years since I bought it and my 10X backpack still looks as good as new even though I use it frequently. It's ageing like wine.
The leather is of impeccable quality and color is perfect for me.
