How to buy a purse you will actually use

  • Start with how you carry it. Shoulder, crossbody and backpack bags each suit different days. Pick the one that matches how you move.
  • Check the size. Compare the listed dimensions to your phone, wallet and laptop, not just the photo.
  • Prefer zipper closures for travel and busy places; magnetic snaps are easier but less secure.
  • Read reviews for the issues you care about, such as strap comfort, zipper quality and whether the color matches the photos.
  • Match the material to your care habits. See our guide to Leather vs Vegan Leather Purses.
