The Small Hunter Satchel

This little satchel has turned out to be perfect for throwing over my shoulder on my way out the door with just the essentials… which for me are my wallet, sunglasses or readers (yes, I’m that age!), a small pocket notebook and pen, an iPhone (smaller model), my AirPods and the smaller pocket inside is perfect for a tin of lip balm, an extra hair tie, and a small bottle of hand sanitizer. Phew! A lot for a little bag! But it all fits with a little room to spare. I’ve been using the bag for about a month. Things I really like about this bag are…
1. The quality of the canvas; its thick and durable and looks rustic without looking shabby, so its good for trails or urban adventures
2. The little metal knob closure is very cool and has two positions so that the bag closes securely when its packed with stuff or when carrying along minimum stuff
3. The adjustable shoulder strap is great and gives the opportunity for people of different sizes to use the bag comfortably; this is a must
4. The bottom of the bag is gusseted slightly so that it expands a little without being bulky, this is an excellent feature
5. I like the color I received, although it really does not resemble the “Spice” color that I ordered. The color is really more greenish brown… rather than the warm light brown that is represented in the Rustico product description. All the colors offered are nice and earthy or rustic
6. The inside pocket is nicely finished and is good sized to hold various small items - kudos to the makers for attention to detail here
7. There is a little leather “strap” sewn on the back of the bag that is the perfect place to clip on keys - another nice little functional detail
8. The stitching is nice and neat and seems sturdy and I expect it to hold up well to daily use.
Now, some things I think could improve or options that would be nice are…
1. The strap is a good thickness, perfect width and length, but it would be nice if the edges were sanded and smoothed a bit (like good bridle leather you would see on a nice pair of reins)
2. A nice-to-have for this small bag would be some good metal clips on the strap with d-rings on the bag, so that it could be converted to fit into other bags or even converted to a waist bag - wouldn’t that be cool!
3. Another nice-to have would be an option for options in the color leather for the strap and closure. I would have loved to have an option for a saddle, buckskin or natural color.
4. The leather I received on my bag is a medium-dark reddish brown, which is fine, but it not the very dark brown shown in the product description pics. I’ll suppose I’ll chalk this up to variations in natural leather processing inconsistencies… but other customers may wish to note that they may not get the exact same leather seen in the description.
Hope this helps you know a bit more about this little bag.

This satchel is just what I needed to carry the extra items that I’ve added to my every day carry list. You know, those larger items that add too much bulk to my pockets. The satchel is a quality made product, well worth the price.

Bought this for my wife and we both really like it. It’s a quality product top to bottom, perfect size to hold those essentials on a day trip, walk or hike, on time delivery was a big bonus
I would definitely recommend this productn

My daughter love my Hunter Satchel and wished she had one. So I gave her a small satchel which she dearly loves. It’s my birthday gift to her.

Great product and great delivery. Highly recommend
