Customer Reviews

Gift bag

Purchased the small clutch bag as a gift received with thanks. Loves the bright colours.

Bag

Everything I thought it would be and more. Lovely great work. Absolutely love it.

The most beautiful bag

I recently purchased a bag from Mochila. I was drawn to them due to the beautiful designs and colours. I purchased a large tote. Perfect size for all my daily stuff. I have had so many compliments, so it was a perfect gift to me. When I ordered the bag, it was just before Cyclone Alfred was due to arrive. They immediately contacted me and explained there could be a delay in dispatch - which was completely understandable. But there was no real delay. A very good experience with both the product and customer service.

All correspondence with the company was answered within a reasonable amount of time.
