It seems like forever that I’ve been looking for a smaller, lightweight leather backpack for bicycling. The ones I found were more like purses, with no practical features. I was happy to come across the Mini Hess! SO lightweight, but still rugged and beautifully constructed. Love the side pockets, love how it holds all my necessary gear, despite being a compact size. LOVE the magnetized closure. The webbing on the inside of the straps is a brilliant touch because it keeps the bag from slipping off my shoulders. The leather is hardy and has a rich, rugged look. Received it less than a week after ordering, and that’s with monogramming, too. Thank you, Yukon Bags!
For quite some time now I’ve been searching for the perfect leather backpack. A lot that I’ve seen don’t have ‘the look’ I’ve been looking for. Sturdy and will stand the test of time. This backpack is incredibly made. Extremely roomy with plenty of extra room. The leather is very soft. When I received the bag I immediately rolled the leather around to bring out more of the pull up. After only a couple of weeks it’s showing some beautiful marks and color variations. I was very surprised at the shipping. Especially coming from another country, it arrived super quick. I’m already itching for another bag! 10/10!
I love my backpack! It is absolutely beautiful. It is very well made too. I wanted a leather backpack like Lara Croft from Tomb Raider for a very long time. I finally found it. You will love this backpack. Get it!
I love small backpacks and I when I saw this one, I ordered it in pecan and let me say I'm very impressed. It's the perfect size and color 😍 shipping was fast!! I overall just love everything about it.
If you're hesitant, don't be. Just buy it. You won't regret it!
The quality of this bag is phenomenal. Gorgeous bag worthy of 6 stars.
Two things: Customers, make sure you understand the true size of this bag. It’s small and their posted measurements are a little misleading, as the overall width includes the two side pockets. The main compartment is smaller than most people would expect, I believe.
Second, Yukon could improve its online store. Some hyperlinks don’t work properly and your TNT tracking system for delivery is absolutely terrible and frustrating. I was a little less excited about my bags arrival after receiving a bunch of utterly useless info from this TNT system. If I was the business owner, I would want to know it’s a bad customer experience. Standard FedEx tracking would be far better.
I did receive the bag quickly. It just showed up unannounced by your tracking system.
This is a perfect small bag to pack all your nick nacs if your headed into work or off to a friends. Holds my 13inch MacBook a small yeti water bottle and lots of little items. I’ve attached a pic comparing it to the largest bag they sell. Quality is 110%. They don’t miss any of the details!
