The SAK Artist Circle Flat Cross Body

 (4 customer reviews)

I like to wear my purses crossbody (strap running across the chest), and since I'm 5.8, it's hard to find a strap long enough to wear crossbody and have the purse fall at my hip. Not my waist, my hip. This purse is very nice, I like the colors, it's a good size and it seems to be well made - however, the strap measurements listed in the description are way, way, way off. Obviouly 1725 to 185 inches is not correct, but I figured maybe I could expect a long strap of some length. I believe there is a decimal that's supposed to be somewhere in there....17.25 to 18.50 inches, perhaps? Whatever the typo, this purse did not fall at my hip as I'd hoped. The only way this could be worn crossbody is if you're 5.3. Alas, my hunt for a purse with an extra long strap must continue.

I like cross body bags. It's hard to find one that isn't too small. This purse fit my needs size wise but it's a downgrade from what I've been using. The fabric lining is thin. You can see through it. You can see through the inside pocket to the outside one. To me, it's cheaply made. The outside fabric is cute. The card pocket inside is too small for cards so I have to use the cell phone pocket. I would not purchase this brand again especially in this price range. I would expect more from a $50+ purse.

I bought a lovely sak bag in Washington DC about 18 months ago and I have murdered it with constant use ... I wanted the same bag and thought this was close. Unlike the bag I bought in washington this one is not leather or if it is it doesn't feel like leather.

This is pretty, well designed but not what I thought it would be.

Annoyingly the metal clip that attaches the handle broke within a week of using it and I had to repair it with sticky tape. so thats a shame.
