I am blown away at how much I love this bag. I have been looking for something that was different than what everyone has -something that stood out. Then I found Ubuntu and the meaning behind it. I was sold. But when my bag came today …omg!! The quality is amazing, it’s thick and you can just feel and see the detail it’s just made way better than I expected and better then half of the designer bags I have. I can’t wait to show this off!

This bag really exceeded my expectations. I bought it because I liked the pattern and wanted to support this initiative. But when I got it, I was blown away. The canvas is really sturdy and it has all the features you would like in a bag. I highly recommend.
Cynthia H. 5/5
This bag is a great size for work, for travel. I like that the shoulder straps fold into the bag so I can use it as a work tote or crossbody bag but also can be pulled out and then the bag can zip closed for traveling. The bag feels sturdy and is made to last. Love it!

My first Ubuntu purchase. It's my new travel go-to bag and it means so much more. I'm obsessed with this bag. The durability and quality are outstanding. You can tell it's handmade, and that craftsmanship shows in every detail. Knowing it supports a movement for women in Kenya makes carrying it even more meaningful. I've already used it for travel and it's officially become my go-to bag for every trip from now on. But my favorite part is the big red heart on the bag. It genuinely makes me smile every time I see it. Travel can be stressful, and that little heart has become my reminder to slow down and carry a heart of gratitude wherever I go. Beautifully made, purposeful, and it just feels good to carry. Highly recommend!

Even though I returned this bag because it was too large for my needs, I was amazed at the quality and style for the price. I will be purchasing a different item from Ubuntu. Truly amazing products and company!

I love, Love, LOVE both of these bags!! They are so well made, stylish and chic and i have gotten so many compliments. I love that everything ( laptop, water bottle, wallet, phone), all fit so well into this bag but the bag is'nt overwhelmingly large which is great since I'm 5'2. I love that the bunlge included a crossbody bag as well and that the strap can be used for either bag. Even the cute tote bags that the bag was in is a keeper! I also love supporting business that want to sprad help and love in the world - a rarity these days So thrilled with my purchase - Thank you Ubuntu!!

Lovely and well made bags- both the commuter and carryall in the black/olive combination. I have an earlier version from a few years ago in the white and black colors and they are still in excellent condition. The embroidered red heart is the perfect addition! Only comment though is that I miss the wrapped rolled leather handles that were on the white/ black version. Keep up the good work, I am honored to support this excellent company.
