They are small but will serve the purpose for now. Have them mounted under the seat. They are goat leather so the have a light sent to them. It goes away. I have a backpack made from the same.

Great value, for what they cost, they look impressive! Nice size for a retro bike

The craftsmanship is excellent and the retro vibe is great. They are just too small for my motorcycles or any other use I can think of.

The bags arrived really quickly and as described. Great quality leather and really good workmanship. I gave them a good wipe with some leather conditioner to get them weatherproof which also softened the leather as well. These bags are perfect for an overnight trip and will hold some clothes change and toiletries. I was not looking for anything too big so these were perfect

Used these on a Yamaha 250 V Star or Virago; the Prastara bag set is just the right size to fit below the turn signal light , behind the shocks and springs, and above the muffler exhaust pipe. The bags are small, but, expand wide and have comparments for storing a few tools, a well rolled up rain jacket, and your registration and insurance in zippered compartment. Note the leather seems waterproof, but the top cover does not seal the inside, so anything you need to keep dry will need ziplock bag or similar. Mounting is a challenge, nobody makes a bolt on kit for these bags or those bikes. I used a universal mounting kit for part of the job (requires drilling holes through the rear fender to attached bolts to). The universal kit keeps the bags off the rear tire, but I had to custom make a horizontal bracket to attach to the universal kit for the leather mounting loops on the bags to hang off of. Out of the shipping pack, the bags smell a little funny, a strong leather or tanning smell, but outdoors it goes away. I had a set of these on another bike and over 5 years they darkened. Overall the price is certainly right, the old school brown leather look may not appeal to some riders, I am content with the result.

They arrived in perfect condition. No mold whatsoever. They hold my lunch bag, gloves, Monster energy, Rain gear and my hoodie for work. They have a waxy scent. It must be a preservative. They look great when they’re stuffed. I think I’ll look at installing some thin plastic strips to help keep its shape when empty . The leather, interior green fabric liner looks cool. The buckles are plated tin. Don’t let them rust. For the silly low price for these genuine tobacco stained leather solo bags. It would be foolish not to get em’ before they’re gone .😎

Bought these pannier bags, was a little hesitant but they have turned out to be better than I expected, actually is leather well made very pleased will do me nicely for summer rides when I dont want to put my large givi panniers on the bike. I did dye them slightly darker which worked very well for me fast delivery pleased all round and a very reasonable price as well... would recommend them.

The quality was excellent with a fun Bohemian, Indian feel. Chartreuse, natural fiber lining like a rough linen, added interest. Leather was supple and unmarred. Buckles were each wrapped in plastic wrap with oil coating, and had no erosion.The size is cute, and smallish looking, but perfectly adequate, once expanded.A piece of thin board on the bottom could be added to help stiffen for carrying weight, but it's nicely made and sturdier leather than purse leather.The tan color had some richness already to the patina, that will deepen in color once I use it and oil it myself a few times. The goat leather was sturdy but still supple. Very serviceable, too. I just took my ebike to get some pineapple ciders,a nd was able to fit a six pack in, by putting 3 bottles in each pannier bag, with no problem carrying the glass bottle weight, and about half the height still remaining in each bag. I really like the bags better than a larger motorcycle pair I already really liked, but that felt heavy and made riding less fun and lightweight. These are just so slender when not expanded, and still so unobtrusive, they feel like a nimble addition to my bike, not an anchor or "sack of pototoes" like many larger bags. I was surprised at first that they looked so flat and small, then I was amazed at how nicely proportioned they looked and how much they actually expanded to hold. Very happy with this high quality purchase and the extremely fast delivery. Would definitely purchase again from this seller.

In der Beschreibung sind Schultergurte angegeben, die leider beide fehlen. Es sind auch keine Befestigungen für die Schultergurte vorhanden. Aber sonst sehen die Taschen sehr hochwertig aus.

Delighted with these!! I searched for a while for leather panniers and these are exactly what I was looking for - genuine leather, vintage and satchel-style bags which look perfect on my classic bicycle. Even better, they're inexpensive and arrived much sooner than I expected (I'm in the UAE and they were shipped from the US). Also came with two cute little notepads.

This is the absolute worst purchase I've ever made. I'm SHOCKED people can even get away with selling such garbage. First, I knew there was going to be a problem when it first arrived. I thought it would be MUCH bigger (width wise), and the envelope looked equivalent to the standard sized envelopes not much bigger than printer paper. These bags couldn't fit more than two or three small books each, let alone carry a laptop or anything else. Not that you would want to carry anything in it anyway. The bags REEKED. When I started to examine them, I quickly learned why as my hands became very sticky. The bags were still went with glue! (See photo 1 with dark/glistening spots). I don't know what kind of glue either, but my head immediately began to hurt and my eyes/nose feel like they've suddenly been dried out. I hope this stuff is nothing toxic!Sigh. I have definitely requested a refund. Compared to another bag I purchased for work--a beautiful, large, handmade red leather bag that only cost forty bucks--this purchase looks like an arts and crafts project some kid threw together. It's absolutely terrible. Don't waste your money.Edited to add: Another reason not to waste your money--it will cost more than the bag to ship it back. :-(
