"Love this bag BUT it doesn’t have an outside pocket to hold a water bottle. Really wish it did…I always carry a water bottle with me and hate to use precious inside space to put it."

"Totally love this bag. Cute, sturdy& pockets. Very pleased with my purchase!"
My new favorite!
"I love this bag. It’s the perfect size for travel, and its added safety features enhance its overall appeal. The exceptional quality makes it one of my favorites."
Fantastic!
"This is the most beautiful and well made tote bag! I love the handle to backpack switch- so easy and quick. This is a keeper"
This is the best bag ever!! 🥰
"this bag is beyond spectacular!!! It's perfect for ALL of my everyday haul goodies, and then some, which is amazing! There are nice, roomy and secure pockets stashed all over, inside and out, so it's great for helping to keep organized and making sure everything has a spot and is super accessible! I keep peeping back to the website to see what other colors the company might release, and if they'd made any "improvements", even though the bag is pretty perfect. The variability in how you can use the straps help to make it easy to grab and go and dress up or down for any environment!"
Love
"My husband and I travel and work outside the US approximately 4 months of the year. I am always looking for a tote that is not only practical, but stylish - one that I can use on the plane, exploring the local, or bring into a high-end restaurant. The Tempest convertible tote exceeded my expectations on our recent trip to Buenos Aires. The safety zippers and security cable are genius, as is how the bag converts to a backpack without it obviously being a backpack. Love."
I have three of the
"I have three of the Sherpani travel bags. 2 have traveled with me on long international trips. This bag I have been using at home. All the bags are great but I think the best would be a combination of the three. A long crossbody strap to use when it makes sense to not use the backpack straps. The skinny firm backpack straps without the padding are best The teen forced bottom is great. The horizontal front outside pocket is perfect for your passport. The stick out pocket makes it too wide and the diagonal front pockets are ok but the zippers are too narrow and it’s tough to put your passport in and out. The gusseted pockets on the inside are good when long and big enough for a hand to reach to the bottom. A zipper pocket inside is super helpful The luggage strap to put over the handle of luggage is great! I love the side pocket on this purse and the long strap with clip attached to the inside bag works best. Can I special order the features I love from each of these bags? It’s been an expensive learning experience for me."
Great bag
"Love all the features of the backpack/Tote. Would be perfect 5 if the bag was a few inches bigger to pack a water bottle comfortably with the rest of my traveling supplies. Additionally, the straps should be a little wider for comfort."
Stinky
"This bag is great, giving 4 stars because of the awful chemical smell coming out of the box."
Tempest amazes
"I love this bag because it's so easy to instantly switch from backpack mode to purse mode. I've had it for 3 years and I continue to get complements about it."
Q&A
- What's the difference between the Tempest and Tempest AT? Why do the handles criss-cross over the opening of the bag?
- Hi Stephanie, The Tempest is from our FW25 collection and features our previous logo. The Tempest AT is part of the new SS26 collection and showcases our updated logo. The criss-cross handle is a unique design feature that allows the bag to easily convert from a tote to a backpack. Hope this clarifies!
