Product Review: LeSportsac Bags

LeSportsac Bags and Purses

Here’s a hot product you might want to know more about. The amazing people at LeSportsac were kind enough to let me check out one of their bags recently, and the following is my review.

Having never owned a LeSportsac bag before, I had no idea what all the fuss was about. I knew about their collaborations with Stella McCartney, Gwen Stefani, and Tokidoki, but beyond that, I really didn’t understand the hype.

Pros

My thoughts about the brand changed when I received my bag (mine is the same style as the white patterned bag above, only in a black and gray floral pattern.) Here are some of my favorite things about the LeSportsac purse I tested out.

*

Lightweight material. One of my favorite things about the bag I received was how lightweight the material was, which is great if you’re like me and love to carry lots of things in your purse. As someone who normally carries a leather or faux leather bag, the difference in weight between that and a LeSportsac purse was huge!

*

Mostly waterproof. Second, the lightweight nylon material makes a LeSportsac bag much more waterproof than the average leather or suede bag. Nice if you’re caught in a rain storm without an umbrella and don’t want to ruin your purse and everything inside! This was a definite plus for me, and made me carry the bag more often than my other purses.

*

So many styles to choose from. Another great thing about LeSportsac bags is that you have many options when it comes to colors and patterns! There are so many styles of bags, and about 10 different colors to choose from for each. You can customize any bag to look the way you want, so you’ll have a personalized look.

Cons

On the other hand, no purse is perfect, and there were a few things I didn’t like about the LeSportsac bag. Here are the things I didn’t like about it:

*

Lack of structure. The purse I tested out was not very structured, which I didn’t like. Structure is definitely something I look for in a bag, as structured purses look much more chic than floppy bags. It’s nice to have a bag hold its shape whether it’s full or not, and the thin nylon simply didn’t hold up unless it was stuffed.

*

Not so versatile. In general, the bags are not very formal, so don’t expect to carry one to work or an interview. They’re perfect for going to class and hanging out during the day, but most are not appropriate for night. To be fair, LeSportsac does offer some smaller purses in patent leather fabrics, so those would work better for nighttime than the nylon bag I tested.

My Overall Opinion

Overall, I liked the LeSportsac purse I reviewed, and would recommend the brand for any college girl who wants a simple, stylish, well-made bag for everyday.

If you’d like to test out a LeSportsac handbag of your own, prices start around $50 at LeSportsac.com.

    Oh, these bags have been around for ages–I’m so glad you finally reviewed them 🙂

    I have several of these bags, and on the contrary they’ve held up pretty well. I love how they have such a wide range of styles & colors that can really be matched/contrasted with any mood, outfit or personality.

    They’re so functional too–3 of my bags are actually foldable so I keep them in my other bags when I go out, and they serve as eco-friendly shopping bags in case of impromptu shopping.

    I really want to have a LeSportsac Bag but the shipping would be too expensive to Hungary, therefore, I won’t order it in the near future, but maybe will get it as a birthday present 🙂

    I love the LeSportsac bags. The bigger ones are especially great to use as a book bag or as a travel bag and the little ones are great as makeup cases or even a pencil case for school. The wide selection of styles, designs are colors are also fabulous!

    Hmmm those are actually pretty cute but my (totally unstylish) Grandma has carried a LeSportsac bag for as long as I can remember…a totally boring, beige, shapeless frumpy thing stuffed with, you know, old hard candy and tissues and stuff.

    The negative connotation is too great for me to ever buy one.
