Kaai Pyramid bag

I've been searching for ages for the perfect work bag - leather, fits a 15" laptop, has pockets - and although it's more than I'd planned to spend, the Kaai Pyramid bag might actually tick all the boxes.

Does anyone have one? Anyone ordered from the Kaai website? I'm not thrilled about their £50 fee to process a return so want to do lots of research!

@RobinEllacotStrike
Thank you for that link, this IS sustainability & gives to a great charity.

@botemp Thanks for sharing that link. I do like the double loop satchel bag but the pyramid is zipped.. I do like the idea of having a zip! Not keen on the Cuyana zipped ones though. Also would prefer to avoid the air miles of importing from the US if I can. This is why I'm struggling to find the right bag, I'm trying to tick so many boxes 🤦🏻‍♀️
I had a look at Everlane. Looks like they do still have a few bags that would fit laptops but there's also quite a few reviews on their website mentioning thin straps, poor quality, etc, so I wondered if that has something to do with them not actually marketing bags as for laptops anymore.

This might be an option for zipped, it has a laptop compartment, Carl Friedrik Ashby, made in Europe with European leather and ships from within the UK.

Ashby · CarlFriedrik

Ashby combines simple elegance with modern day functionality. Designed for the days when everything needs to fit.

This is a great laptop bag that converts to a shoulder bag. Beautiful quality and not too heavy

She was an IT manager that couldn't find the perfect bag!

Lovely bag, but £575!!

Amazon £60, personally wouldn't want real leather/dead cow

I want leather as it will last for a much longer time, it's much more sustainable than using plastic. plastic bags will split and delaminate with age.

Well I maxed out some discount codes and got it for £400
Which is a lot cheaper than all the LV bags I see.
Tassel is removable. There's different straps. I like that it's got compartments as I hate everything being in a big jumble at the bottom of the bag.
Converts into a handbag. And a makeup bag so not carting the whole thing to the loos. I guess it fits my spec.

@ADHDHDHDHD as long as you love it, that's all that matters. If we all liked the same it would be boring

@botemp that is nice. Possibly a bit plainer than I'd ideally like but I do like how sleek it is and the lack of blatant branding. It's definitely a front runner, thanks! Black isn't in stock but I've signed up to be notified when it is.

I have been looking at the Strathberry Osette shopper. I like the bag shape but the loop decoration thing is a bit random and I definitely prefer a bag that doesn't have gold branding...

@ADHDHDHDHD I'm glad you found a bag that works well for you and managed to get such a good discount 😊

I have the smaller size of this from Guibert. The quality is excellent

True!
It's such a mission to identify ones 'spec' then go about finding it!

@firebrand123 which bag did you go for in the end? Im looking at Kaai at the moment… thanks
