As soon as I opened the box and had the AYA in my hands, I could tell this was not only a beautiful bag, but very well made.  The first thing that hits you after you remove the dust cover is the wonderful real leather smell. The exterior is made from a soft leather that appears like it will be very durable. The AYA comes in several colors (white, black, green), but the one I received is three beautiful shades of pink. The exterior stitching is top quality… straight, with a nice matching color thread. Both sides of the bag are identical, so there is not a front or back.  Tucked behind the handles on both sides are zippered pockets that are a good size for smaller items that you may use more frequently.

The interior of the pink AYA is one of my favorite colors. It’s a satin burgundy color that goes perfectly with the three exterior colors. On one side is a padded laptop pocket that would hold most laptops with screen sizes up to around 15″. I did a quick measurement and the pocket is about 14 x 11 x 2 inches in size. The top of the pocket is secured with a wide velcro flap. On the outside wall of the laptop pocket are two small open top pockets that would be great for change or small items. Opposite the laptop side is a zippered pocket that is about 9 inches wide and 8 inches deep. Next to the laptop compartment there’s plenty of room for all your other stuff such as power cords, a book or two and whatever else you may need during the day.

One of the nicest things about this pink leather laptop bag, it that it doesn’t really look like a laptop bag at all. You could use this bag with or without your laptop. Take it to the office during the day and then take it out a night. Stylish, modern looking and functional! This bag is currently only available on the Mamtak website for just over $200 USD. Mamtak is a company based in Amsterdam, but they ship worldwide. We will hopefully have this bag and other future pink Mamtak bags available on the Rainebrooke website in the near future.
