Top Grain Leather inspired Birken Bag, light blue size, 30
⭐⭐⭐/5 - Gorgeous leather, but the hardware needs a redesign
I have been wearing this bag every single day since I received it, and there is a lot to love — but I also have to be honest about what needs improvement.
Let’s start with the good: the leather is absolutely beautiful. It has a natural, non-shiny finish that looks and feels very luxurious. I also really appreciate that this is a true Birkin-inspired bag with no fake Hermès stamp or logo. That honesty makes it so much classier than a knockoff, and I respect that greatly.
However, the hardware is where this bag lets itself down — badly. On each side of the bag, there is a gold eyelet ring punched through the leather where the shoulder strap connects. The moment I saw it, my heart sank. It looks like something from a hardware store, not a luxury-inspired handbag. It makes the entire bag look cheap, and from what I have seen in reviews of the real Birkin, the authentic bag does not have this at all. I truly wish they would remove it or replace it with a proper leather tab and D-ring, which would look so much more refined and elegant.
On top of that, after just two weeks of daily wear, the gold coating on the feet at the bottom of the bag is already peeling off.
The leather itself deserves five stars. But please, Popsewing — fix the eyelet hardware. It is the first thing people notice, and it is the one thing that takes this beautiful bag from impressive to disappointing.
Hi Betty, thank you for your detailed feedback. We're glad you love the leather, and we appreciate your suggestions regarding the hardware. The eyelets are designed for strap attachment, and the size 35 and 40 cm bags do not feature these eyelets. We'll take your comments into consideration for future designs. Thanks again for your honesty and support!
I've ordered several (too many) Birkin inspired bags from Handsewgift, and today, just received my 1st order from Popsewing. My first Kelli 32 bag, in Beige, far exceeded my expectations!!! The quality of the bag is great, and the packaging was very good protecting it nicely on its long journey from China, to the Midwest USA. I think im seriously addicted to these 2 companies, as I've not been disappointed by any bag I've received from them!!

Beautiful bag, beautiful construction and material. I would highly recommend.
I was so excited about my purse that I immediately ordered another one.
I'm waiting for it, I have plans to get another one.
The only downside is that it takes an extremely long time to arrive.
