Curve Tasche

My wife has been seeing Stow bags advertised, discussed and reviewed on various sites and was convinced she wanted one ... so I surprised her with the Stow Curve in a beautiful mocha color for Christmas. She is the expert on handbags, and she has commented repeatedly about how well crafted the bag is and the exceptional quality of the leather and suede used. The storage cover and the Stow canvas tote included with the purchase makes for one very nice package.

The quality is par excellence satisfaction overloa

I really love the bag—the size is just right and the color is perfect. One minor issue is that the longer strap has excess length when adjusted to the shortest setting. I would also appreciate proactive updates on shipment status, rather than needing to request them. Anyway, great bag and no regrets!

So far, I’m really happy with the bag overall. The quality and design are beautiful.
However, the strap isn’t very practical if you prefer wearing it on the shoulder — even at the shortest length, it sits too low to function as a proper shoulder bag.
And since the bag is quite large, I don’t love wearing it as a crossbody either.
So realistically, it works best as either a top-handle bag or a crossbody, but not as a classic shoulder bag.
That’s the only drawback for me.

While I love the color of my bag, there seems to be two functional problems which don’t allow it to fold and bend as shown. The magnets are not strong enough to hold the sides of the bag, in or down, when it is folded - therefore once I put the strap on my shoulder or across my chest, the magnets release and pop back open. Secondly is that the leather is cut too tight (?) and doesn’t have enough give to fold over itself across the top - and once I put the strap on my shoulder, it pops back open. So sadly, what I end up having is this large, square bag that has no shape and lays flat on my hip. It is lifeless and shapeless without being fastened. As this is my second Stow bag, I tossed the paperwork away and cannot return it so beware of this product and keep the everything to see if the style works for you.
