Hi girls/gentlemen can anyone give me recommendations for a workhorse bag. It needs to be able to wear on my shoulder, I can spend around $800. I want a bag that will wear well. Thank you all for any suggestions

I can vouch for Laurel Dasso! She can make your dream bag for you and customize it as far as the material, hardware, size, etc.I know on some threads I sound like a broken record, but this artist makes amazing bags that are real workhorses and incredibly well made. I have about 10 from her, from totes to clutches. If you don't see something you like you can customize or dream up something entirely original. All are lined in Cordura which is waterproof and very tough-wearing.

I'm looking their new Metropolis satchel. I've seen them in person and it looks better in real life. Made of Saffiano leather.

Does it need to be designer? or can it be more under the radar? Roots is my go-to for workhorse bags, high grade leathers, Made in Toronto.

Would you consider pre-loved? You could find a lovely pre-loved Proenza Schouler or Mulberry for your budget.
Take a look at Longchamp leather bags. They have several in your price range and hold up really well.
