Overland Equipment Donner SKU #7197344(View on Zappos.com Classic)

Convenience galore! As with some other reviewers, I absolutely loved my old Donner bag which was made with different materials. I had one in a fuchsia color and wanted one in black. Even though I don't like the materials they use in the newer Donner bags as well, I love the design of this bag. I love that it has pockets on either side that you can use for water bottles. When I'm not using them for water bottles, I put my re-usable Chico grocery (stuff sack) bags in one side and my sun-glasses on the other side. My cell phone goes in one of the compartments under the front flap so it's always convenient to find. I also love the key fob; it makes it so much easier to find my keys. My purse rarely gets dirty at all, but when it gets dusty I can brush it right off. I also really like the size of the purse and I like having the strap cross over my body for extra security.

I love this bag! It’s very roomy and comfortable to carry if you are walking for long periods of time. It’s a great everyday bag for work, errands, whatever.

I love Overland Equipment Donner~ I bought it for vacation and I could carry everything with me and still be comfortable and have my hands free. It would be nice to have a few extra small pockets in the main section to hold little things that get lost in the bottom.

Not quite right - I will just say for the record that I LOVE Zappos! I ordered this bag for an upcoming trip to France, as an alternative to carrying a backpack. I was really looking for a smallish messenger bag, not a purse. But when it got here, it was just a little too much like a purse, and not enough like a messenger bag. So while I loved the color and features it was just a little smaller than I wanted. But if you're looking for a roomy purse: this is the one for you! The next size up in the brand was just too big. I called Zappos and did a quick exchange for the North Fact Calyx Se which is a little bigger. They expedited everything so I can get the other bag in time for my trip. Again, LOVE Zappos!!

I loved my old Donner bag, but decided to get one in black. Well, the design is still good, but in the years since I bought my last bag and another one as a gift, they have really started cutting corners on materials. The fabric and strap, even the hook-and-loop closure, are all much cheaper looking and feeling than in older versions of this bag. I still love the design and size, so didn't return it, but probably should have explored other options (Sherpani for example).

Donner Bag is the perfect bag - This is actually my 2nd one I have purchased. This is the perfect everyday or travel bag. It holds quite a bit plus it's very compact. The adjustable strap is perfect for either wearing on your shoulder or putting across your shoulders for a more secure feeling. Love it!!

Fantastic everyday bag - I purchased this bag to use as an everyday carryall-type bag and it has more than lived up to what was promised. It is tough, virtually waterproof and a great size for hooking over the back of my wheelchair. It has plenty of pockets for all my "stuff" that I want to be able to put my hand on without having to look and it is still light weight enough that when I have it over my shoulder it doesn't weigh me down. The colors are just great especially for this time of year. The only reason I only gave it a 4 instead of a 5 in looks is because I would love to see it in other materials, i.e. leather, suede, etc. I would be more than willing to pay a few dollars more for the wider selection of materials for the outside. Otherwise, it is as near perfect as you can get, in my opinion.

Overland Donner - I got this bag to take to Panama later in the year. I haven't gone as yet, but have tried it out here in California: working, social stuff. The grey is nice; although the orange is gorgeous as well (I saw one at a department store). This actually holds a 1-L Sigg bottle without being bulky. Nice distribution of compartments. An easy bag to like. Good safety with travel documents. Nice cross body design works well.

This is not as well designed as I hoped - The side straps from the outer pockets to the main strap unhinge about 50% of the time. Very annoying. The front flap has many pockets, but the velcro closure opens all the time which renders all the pockets as useless. I was hoping this item would give me a simple and somewhat fashionable organizing solution to carry me through a busy day. Very disappointing.

Perfect for my trip to Europe - I ordered the Overland Donner bag for my first trip to Europe. I wanted something that would let my hands be free for changing planes and when touring. My black Overland Donner bag and my black North Face Grace raincoat were the two best things that I could have brought on the trip! I thought the bag was going to be too small but, when you are touring all day you really don't want to be carrying too much. The inside of the bag fit my wallet and the raincoat (tightly rolled up)...the outside pockets kept my small travel journal, tissues, pen, and euro coins handy (for the bathrooms!)...also really appreciated the two water bottle pockets-great for water bottle on one side and umbrella on the other. Strap easily adjusted for cross-body wear for airport/touring or over the shoulder for dressier look at dinner. Only thing I would change is for the Overland label to be smaller and the strap to be black. LOVED this bag and happily recommend it.
