All Hide & Drink leather products are handmade from rustic, durable, Full Grain Leather. Our Full Grain Leather comes from the top layer of the hide and has all the natural full grain characteristics of the hide...hence the name. It's the best leather you can buy and the only leather that we use.
The flesh side of the soft leather is first stained with natural drab tone and finished with our proprietary beeswax conditioner. Our unique treatment helps the leather to retain its shape without the aid of synthetic stabilizers, offering a natural and durable look.

I have used this product a few times so far. It was exactly what I hoping for. A strap to carry books with. One drawback is something like a soft cover composition book can be warped if the other materials are smaller than the comp book. Not bad though. I have carried a combination of books and notebooks, books and a calc (don't recommend unless you have a case that gives it some more size to be held), my switch in a case and a couple notebooks, etc.Everything you are carrying will be visible to other people, keep that in mind.Overall well constructed and looks great! Awesome product. If you want that old world feel with a new product, this is for you.

The book strap is super cute, and made of sturdy leather. The strap works great, but is a few inches too short. It is just barely long enough to wrap around your books with a couple inches to spare. It also takes longer than you would expect to fiddle with it to get it on, so be prepared for that. It's not a quick and seamless process.

This book strap is great. I’m able to fit quite a few books in it at once. Hardcover, paperback, different sizes, any of them!Once you get used to how it needs to be undone, you can get books in and out quickly.The leather is easily scratched, but just rub over the scratch a bit and it’s mostly gone.Worth the price, and if I needed another, I’d definitely buy this one again!

My husband and I struggled with this for forever before realizing it arrived with the strap strung incorrectly through the slots.Once we figured that out it was much easier. The biggest hint was that the center strap needs to be the same color all the way through.Thank you to everyone who posted photo and video reviews otherwise we would have been lost.

A little hard for me to figure how to strap book, but finally figured it out.Very nice leather and strong.

Purchased for my kids. To time consuming to use and difficult to figure out how to ‘wire’ it up. But can’t fault the quality and workmanship. Kids never used them so just gathering dust now.

Ich gehe gern allein in Cafés oder mache Radtouren zu mir bekannten schönen Picknickplätzen, und nehme gern meine Bücher mit. Bisher habe ich die immer entweder so unter dem Arm oder in der Hand getragen (lästig, wenn man noch in die Stadt geht und in Geschäften bummeln möchte) oder in meine Handtasche gestopft, was eigentlich auch nur ging, wenn es sich um ein kleines Buch oder Taschenbüchlein gehandelt hat. Ein Buch wie das, was ich gerade lese (s. Foto, "Das Feuer im Bootshaus" von Kristina Ohlsson) passt da nicht rein.Also habe ich mir diesen Book Carrier bestellt. Anfangs war ich extrem verwirrt und wusste nicht, wie das gehen soll. Auf den Fotos sah das alles so einfach aus, aber bei mir kreuzten sich ständig die Gurte und es ging nie "auf". Ich habe mir dann das eine Foto der Warenbeschreibung hier vergrößert und den Gurt ganz aufgemacht oder "entdröselt". Stellte sich heraus, der kam "falsch" eingefädelt an, das hätte so nie funktioniert. Jetzt ist es ganz einfach und ich bin sehr happy.Dass es sich um ein Kleinunternehmen handelt, das Teil 101 Jahre (!) Garantie hat und offenbar versucht wurde, das nachhaltig herzustellen, war mir wichtig (was natürlich auch etwas verlogen ist, da ich mir das Teil habe von Amazon-US liefern lassen, aber ich habe hier nichts Vergleichbares gefunden, und echte Schuster, die so etwas hier noch herstellen können, ist zumindest in unserem Umkreis keiner...)

resulta super practico si no quieres cargar con muchas cosas y estas siempre en movimiento, he cargado libros documentos y iPad juntos con una carcasa todo terreno. las bandas de piel son muy resistentes y la calidad del cuero es muy buena y flexible, una vez que descifras cómo funciona es super versátil. Ademas del look vintage steampunk que te da al cargar con tus cosas.
