I received the American Leather Co. Kansa Crossbody, the first real leather purse I have ever had!
Using only the finest American leather, we handcraft each and every piece to be truly unique, offering subtle shade and texture differences that showcase our pure quality. All leather is sourced in America and is an extremely soft, supple glove leather. The classic silhouettes are timeless and meant to be worn every day. Thoughtful design ensures the bags are functional and keep belongings organized. – American Leather Co.
In my opinion, though the lesser opinion of how big a purse should be, a purse should be small and should only be big enough to carry essentials. This is why I have not had a purse for so long; I do not want a large purse to haul around, but those big ones are everywhere! So until recently, I was not able to find any that meet my size, color, or pocket expectations. When I was asked to check out American Leather Co, I did not think of purses; I was thinking of belts and briefcases, but I was elated when I found the perfect purse size in a color I love. They have many crossbody purses to choose from, but I was drawn to the Kansas Crossbody purse. Come to find out, Kansas is an American Leather Co. classic favorite!
5 Reasons I Love My Kansas Crossbody Purse
- Hold just the right amount of stuff
- Soft & Supple
- Adjustable Strap
- Real Leather
- Built-in card/ID holder
I have been carrying it everywhere. It easily holds my cell phone, mascara, a few clips for my hair, and a credit card with a few bucks for cash. I am certain I can get more into it, but what else do I need? I like that credit cards are easy to get out of the purse because the zipper completely circles the whole pocket. Also, the leather is incredibly soft and supple, making it easy to carry. The strap is adjustable, hangs across my chest, and sits nicely on my hip; very comfortable!
I have never owned a real leather purse, and while reading about the company and the other products they sold, I came across a paragraph telling you how to care for your leather. They not only tell you how to clean it, but they also sell leather cleaner + protectant, a specially formulated spray for the softest leathers, shielding your bag from rain, sweat, and dirt. This is well received since I have no knowledge of caring for leather!
One last thing to note. While looking through the site, reviews rave about the products and the leather. The product care and warranty that they have seem nothing less than superior. Within six months of your purchase, if something goes wrong with it, i.e., zipper breaks, adjustable strap breaks, or even a color change on a particular part of the purse, you simply take a few photos of the product and email them.

I really like the Kansas Crossbody bag. What I like most about it is that it is on the smaller side but it has a place for everything. I especially like the built in credit card holder. I also like that it is leather.
I like a purse that is the right size: not too big and not too small. It must be sturdy, look great, and close securely.
I love the look of leather, and the style of the Kansas crossbody. This is a handbag for all occasions.
I am a organized person I want everything in the same spot all the time. This bag makes it so easy. I like the compact size and the color goes with everthing
It’s a very nice bag. I actually need a new one, I had mine for years!
I look for style and durability. I like to have an every day purse that carries my essentials and a smaller one for when I’m visiting someone or going to lunch with my mom.
