  • Meticulous organization pockets galore
  • Durable construction withstands years
  • Sleek minimalist aesthetic options
  • Comfortable cushioned backpack straps
  • Heavy leather tote weight
  • Neoprene bubbling and creasing
  • Easily stained light neoprene
  • Zippers scratch and stick

Dagne Dover earns strong reviews for smart, pocket-rich designs that travel well, from the Dakota backpack and Landon Carryall to the Allyn and Signature totes, which many say are durable, sleek, and easy to organize—so yes, the brand works. However, critiques surface around heavy leather totes, neoprene quirks (bubbling, creasing, sagging, staining, strong odor), zippers that scratch or stick, and some size/fit frustrations, making careful style and material selection important before buying.

  • I got one of their bags in a Stitch Fix box. I got the Landon Large Duffle in a gray/slate color. It came with a smaller mesh pouch for shoes maybe and then a coin purse sized one. Each side had a slot in it that is made to go over a suitcase to wheel around--which I just figured out after finally going to their website. I would've rather had pockets. All in all, the bag's too small to actually use as a duffle to go overnight or away for the weekend, and it's an odd shape to use as a purse everyday. It does have an interior laptop slot. It does have a few interior pockets, but I am used to the depth of my LV Neverfull so this was a sacrifice in size. I like that it is washable neoprene, as it does get filthy a lot. For the price point I would say it is worth it, and I would like to explore other products in other shapes from the brand. I would definitely like to get a wallet. They do have a ton of tote bags that are very business like that don't fit my lifestyle but if they could make a neoprene tote like the Landon Duffle I would be the first in line to buy it!

    More styles. I've read they don't wear well after being washed several times, but have yet to see that myself. the strap is awkward and cumbersome on the landon duffle. Make the straps longer so it can be worn over the shoulder.

  • I have 2 backpacks, the large in black for work/travel and the medium in dune for city life. I love the dune color SO much but it stains with any drop of water. And as a city dweller it’s often in the elements and can be drenched in rain. It protects everything inside and I LOVE the functionality, but frustrating to have to wash a backpack to make it look nice again.

  • The weekender bag is fantastic. The bag can be used as a carry on and as a personal item when flying. It is compact but fits a multitude of things. The fabric is also durable and fairly easy to clean.

  • Got my boyfriend a gym bag and it works really well for him and it is very durable! Nice dark navy blue color.

  • Obsessed with my carryall. I've had it for about 7 years, and it's been a go to for me daily. I primarily use my medium size as a gym bag, and it's the perfect size to fit post gym clothes, a sweatshirt, a makeup/toiletry bag, extra pair of shoes, laptop, a small lunch, water bottle, and it has a pocket for random small things (wallet, chapstick). This brand thought of everything and created such a thoughtfully designed bag.

  • Love this brand and their cute scuba material bags! I’ve had one for a few years, the foam started to come out of the handles and normally it would be past any warranty period but I just tried to send some photos and they said this was very abnormal and since the damage is so severe they will give me a new bag!! They are a company that stands behind their products. Have used this bag daily for years and still looks great.

  • I scored a bag set for my daughter's graduation, and let me tell you, it's top-notch quality! She can't stop raving about how much she loves it.

  • I love my backpack! The color is unique and it actually fits quite a lot, I just wish they had an option for a bigger size backpack. My husband opted for a different brand because it wasn't big enough for his needs and I sometimes wish it were a little larger for travel as well.

  • I purchased dagne dover a while ago - the product is decent re: the materials and styles and I have kept the one backpack that I first purchased around 3 years ago. However, the backpack ended up getting a hole ripped in it from the weight of my backpack (laptop + water bottle + standard weight items) and I had a horrendous time trying to get an exchange or a return in terms of customer service. Like the products, highly disappointed by the customer service, especially for a higher priced product.

    subpar customer experience and support

  • The product is good overall! The material is stretchy and durable. The material is really nice and unique! I can fit everything I need and more even in my small duffel.

    Feedback

    The product definitely gets discolored after a while if it's in the sun too much. I live in the tropics, so I noticed that it started to fade on the top of the bag after a few months. I also wish the bag held it's shape a little bit better, after a lot of use it's quite droopy. I know that's the nature of this type of fabric, but still.

  • I have a Dagne Dover fanny pack and it is amazing. I used it throughout my Europe summer vacation and it was so handy to have. It was fashionable, a perfect size, and I loved the neoprene material.

    Feedback

    A little expensive, but overall worth it for the quality.

  • I love Dagne Dover and the neutral colorways the various items come in. I have the Ace Fanny Pack in the Dune color and have spilled so many things on it – namely olive oil – and it somehow still looks great!! The fabric is durable and easy to wash as well, and their kits (set including a bag and wallet, pouch, etc.) are a brilliant idea. I recommend these bags for highly active people, including fitness enthusiasts, moms, and people who carry around a lot of stuff/need to make outfit changes while still looking chic.

    Feedback

    I would not spend $95 on a fanny pack or $150+ on a backpack, but I am grateful to have been gifted this product. The elevated quality is definitely reflected in the price.

  • Love the quality of these bags - have a duffel & backpack. They are machine washable which is great for travel

  • Love our Dagne Dover diaper bag. Style and functionality - perfect to carry every day. Quality is great!

    Feedback

    The material isn’t the easiest to clean, but it is super durable and well-wearing.

  • I LOVE my Dagne Dover bags. I have the Landon Carryall and the toiletry bags and they're perfect for travel. Their leather collection is also great and has made my life a lot easier when I need a chic, neutral bag to bring out with me. I also am obsessed with all the little bags that come with the products, like the tech pouch, laundry bag, shoe bag, etc. Definitely makes the products feel more luxurious.

    Feedback

    Don't overstuff! I've had my products for 3 years now and they've been great, however, I just noticed that my toiletry pouch is starting to pull at the zipper and some of the linings have detached. I definitely should have treated it better & not forced so many products inside!

  • Have an electronics and chord organizer that was gifted to me by family. The design is really convenient and the layout is smart and well built.

    Feedback

    The fabric texture is a little weird.

  • I've had a Dagne Dover backpack for 4+ years now. It's cute and people always ask me where it's from! I love the saturated olive color. It's durable and doesn't have any major damage from use over the last several years, except on the corners/bottom where it's set on the floor.

    Feedback

    I've gotten some "dents" in the fabric over the years and I'm not sure why the fabric hasn't bounced back. It just makes an otherwise nice bag look not-so-nice.

  • Stylish lightweight bag that is perfect for a unisex diaper bag.

    Feedback

    Fabric gets dirty somewhat easily and wish some of the pockets were different (the front two zippers are actually the same pouch, the side pockets are somewhat useless without zippers)

  • A perfect travel daypack! Bought this bag before a multi-city trip and it was perfect for going about the city in. Pockets for DAYS. So easy to keep the bag organized. My favorites are the hidden side back pockets which are just the right size for a phone, wallet and/or passport. The minimalist design also keeps it matching whatever you choose to wear.

    Feedback

    They do absorb sweat more than other materials, so it needs to be washed more often.

  • I got a Dagne Dover travel bag from my wedding registry and have used it for every travel occasion thus far. The bag is durable and made from neoprene, and features lots of organizational pockets, and a small removable pouch that can be attached with a carabiner to an elastic on the inside. I love the small outside pocket made for phones, and the fact that it can slide right onto my rolling bag.
