I have the large one in dark green. I was looking for a book tote style bag to use for work, I wanted it to be carefree and fairly inexpensive. And definitely little to no branding on it.
One day I emailed customer service why there are no EU countries on the shipping list when I wanted to check out with a random item just to see what would the shipping cost be. Just by blind luck it turned out they were doing a test buy opportunity for UK customers and I was able to participate.
So I ended up buying the big green one. I've had it for a few months now and one of bottom corners is staring to wear. I'm not bothered as I wanted a throw-around bag.
I like the magnet clasp on the top, it makes the bag a little more secure. The longer handles could be detachable, but it's just nit picking as they don't get in the way when I carry the bag.
While I'm not a fan of "vegan leather" personally, I can see why people like these bags. They come in lots of colours, three sizes and the price is accessible.

It finally arrived. I ordered it on March 30th. I got the Red Medium. 
Just got my medium this week after doing the Bag Security Program II! Pleasantly surprised it fits my 15" Macbook sleeve. The magnetic closure doesn't close when I do, but no big deal. Already used it as an overnight bag and it fit a change of clothes, my toiletries, and a couple other essentials. Nice enough for faux leather and will definitely keep it in my regular rotation.
I just ordered one…got through this time!
Just got my grey small that I ordered during bag security 2 (I was on holiday so just got it though it arrived a month ago). First impressions are very positive.
For vegan leather, it feels very nice. I’ve had Matt & Nat pleather and it is way more stiff and plasticy than this. The embossed logo is very distinct and well-done. All the stitching is solid and even. The long straps and the sides of the bag have creases from shipping but nothing bothersome, and I’m sure they’ll subside with use.
It is a quite small bag but given the open tote style can carry all my everyday needs (as pictured), though the magnet snap won’t close with everything in there. Very lightweight and comfortable to carry. Like the grey…it’s a perfect midtone taupey-grey.

My medium in Dark Olive came…quickly! Love the color. Much more of a bottle green than olive.
hey everyone 
I want to order a telfar tote and cannot decide between the medium & the large
it has to pack my portfolio (A4), my 13" MacBook for college, my LV mini pochette for toiletry stuff & a pair of high heels.
I will use it mostly for work & for uni and sometimes for travelin, so of course a small bottle of water would also be nice
what do you think?

The medium. I’ve heard the large is too big for everyday and best suited for travel.
