Cheap Botkier Handbags for Sale

I have several Botkier bags and love them! So I was excited to get this bag. It is a major disappointment! The leather feels like plastic. It is not supple and thick like my other Botkier bags. It feel like something that was made for a discount store and I find it hard to believe it ever sold for the list price. If I had seen this in person, I would pass it right by. It does not look nearly as nice as the photo and I suspect mine was someone else's return as it came IN the dustbag and usually the dustbags are IN the purse. This is going back tomorrow!

I LOVE Botkier bags and this one does not disappoint! I have the Botkier Venice Hobo in bright pink, but also wanted something a little more subtle for different situations that wasn't black or brown, as I like bags and accessories that have a little "pop" to them, and that are a color of leather that I can use where I live (in Hawaii; dark leather doesn't really work here well, and leather in general doesn't quite fit the climate, so one has to find just the right thing...). So, I got the "navy" Eden Hobo, which is mostly a kelly green cowhide (so, soft and supple leather) with strips of a brighter-than-most navy lambskin (shinier leather - my entire Venice Hobo consists of this) on each side. The colors are perfect - they do pop, especially the green (the navy is much more subdued, which is good because it balances out the fact that it is mostly a Kelly green bag), but the green at the same time manages to be classy and not at all garish.OMG it is beautiful!!! I had seen it on sale on Nordstrom.com, but didn't buy it because it was the holidays and I couldn't justify it to myself, but I just couldn't get it out of my mind! I had checked amazon, but they either didn't have it at the time or it was full price (can't remember). I couldn't stop thinking of it, so I checked Nordstrom again and it was full price... Then I checked amazon and it was almost 40% off (about $30 cheaper than it had been on sale for at nordstrom.com!!!) it came very fast, even to Hawaii…

I really wanted to love this bag, it's so unusual and cute and I loved the coral snakeskin color. But it had to go back because the leather is so hard and stiff that the strap stands up by itself! The zipper doesn't open up the inside all the way so every time you reach in you scrape your hands on that stiff leather. It is a gorgeous bag with high quality leather, but not practical for me. There was no way I could break this in and so sadly I had to return it.

Good name brand, nice leather & size and pretty design. However quality was very lacking! Zippers don't work 1/2 the time or get stuck on the leather. Braiding started to come apart almost immediately and bottom of bag sags way down as soon as you put anything in it.Sent it back...very disappointing!Amazon customer service was GREAT about it!

I love botkier bags in general, so it is no surprise I liked this hobo. I was looking for a stylish work bag, that would fit my 13" MacAir, and this bag fit the bill perfectly. It has an oversized pocket in the front for all the laptop accessories, and the inside pockets generously fit my wallet and cell phone. My laptop, with its neoprene cover fit snugly in the bag, and there is still room for additional paper folders. This bag is perfect for looking stylish while traveling for work.Some general considerations: It is fairly light for a leather bag, so it will also work as an everyday bag. A word of caution if you are not a sparkly fan. The 'gold' sheen is distinct, so this bag will stand out. The bag did lose a star only because the zipper is not as easy to close as you would expect, but I'm hoping this will improve with wear.

I love this bag. I get compliments on it almost everywhere I go. The best part about the bag is that you can wear it in so many different ways. Hold the small handles with the large strap on top, it looks like a briefcase. If you hold the small handles with the large one hanging down, it's a satchel. Obviously, when you put the large strap over your shoulder it becomes a hobo. The best one though, is that there are slots to feed the large strap around the entire bag and it scrunches up into a smaller bag!!! Perfect for hitting up happy hour after work.My one complaint is quality. After only 6 months the leather looks terrible. It is totally worn, and the straps are permanently bent. I had the bag in a light color at first returned it almost immediately because it started turning green... weird, I know.Despite this though, it is by far the cutest, most versatile bag I own. (and I own a lot of bags)

Unable to return to Florence to replace my wonderful sling bag bought in 2006( the leather is fine but the fastenings have worn out) I looked online to find its replacement. No luck at all strangely; it was perfectly designed and either out of fashion or just not being shared with north america. Anyway I shortlisted several bags and fell in love with the violet colour and cross body convenience of this one. Am disappointed however that what I thought were small pockets were merely decorative zippers. I still love the colour so am keeping it, but it is not as practical as I would have liked. However the substantial discount by buying through Amazon made the disappointment much easier to bear.

Absolutely beautiful bag.. The leather is amazingly soft yet durable great quality. This bag sits under my arm and does not slide down. Classic look with an edge. Will not easily get tired of this style and will probably enjoy this bag for years!!! The shoulder strap is not adjustable although it almost looks like it would be. This does not bother me since it is so comfy to carry just the way it is...

I love this super thin eyeliner pencil and wish it were not discontinued. It is not waxy and it doesn't smear. Easy to use.

First of all this is a high-quality bag that will hold a lot of stuff for a clutch-type purse. (you can detach the straps) It holds my normal wallet, keys, makeup and phone. It came with an authenticity card and a nice bag to store it in. (Bonus!) I have it in the silver color and it is awesome for a night out in Vegas. My only complaint about this is that being 5'11" it looks comical when worn in the cross-body style. It hits at the waistband of pants. But it will be nice as a shoulder bag and as a clutch. Maybe I will try to add extra chain to make it work as a cross-body.

I purchased the Botkier Juno satchel in Merlot. According to the description, the handbag was supposed to be lambskin. When the handbag arrived, it looked nothing like the photo. The bag is Merlot in color, but it doesn't look or feel anything like lambskin. The leather looked uneven in color. It appeared that the dye didn't take in certain areas. It was not soft to touch like lambskin is supposed to be. It didn't help that the Amazon warehouse threw this bag in the box, and it wasn't even stuffed, and the dust bag was thrown in the bottom of the box. The original price on this handbag was $495, and it is not even worth $150. The manufacturer is overpriced junk, and the manner in which Amazon shipped it to me it was obvious that they thought it was junk too. A total disappointment.
