I am pleased to say that Avallone Leather Goods of New York has contacted me and is sending one of their City Messenger bags out west for me to have a look at and to do a little road test of it by carrying it around for a few days.

Reading the “About” page for Avallone Leather intrigues me; “Avallone specializes in handmade leather goods. We are built on a foundation of strong work ethic, attention to detail, and a need for the highest quality products. Whether you’re a working professional looking for leather accessories or someone with a love for adventure and travel, our original style and superior quality will help fullfill the everyday demands of your busy life.”
I am very interested in seeing how the Avallone bags compare to my Saddleback Leather and Marlondo Leather bags.
I will let you know as soon as I have the Avallone City Messenger bag in my possession.
Disclosure; Although I do not yet have the Avallone Leather bag in my possession I want to be perfectly clear that the bag is being sent on loan and NO financial or other form of incentive was provided by Avallone Leather to me for writing this blog post. As always, in all my blog posts, I maintain full editorial control.
