“Well I’m saddened actually! I ordered the Limoncello pouch, as I was gifted a couple of other coordinating pieces for my bday, plus I absolutely loved the colour! 💛 I also ordered the rippled bag holder to go with it. Patiently waited over a week,only to be told it was no longer available 🥲🥲”
“Love all the bags & pouches with the carabiner. Wonderful choice of material especially the suede. Although the leather in Estella tote is slightly on a heavy side & the handle of Amy Tote Sude is a bit hard. No regrets😘”
“I have just received the Ari backpack and I could not be happier! I was watching this product last year when it seemed to disappear, so when it became available again recently I absolutely jumped at the chance to buy it. Love that it has handle, shoulder strap but is also a backpack - so easier to carry when you are on the go! But most importantly, it has the luggage slider that is so elusive on many laptop bags or backpacks. This was a key purchasing item for me. I am third time repeat customer of Alf, and I absolutely adore the products! I can fit everything I need into the Ari but the crossbody bag is perfect for a normal handbag and the dumpling suede bag is lovely for a night out. They all fit way more than you think they can!”
“Where do I start? Maybe with the order and delivery process. I ordered a mesh tote, suede grand pouch and ripple carabiner. The carabiner arrived a couple of days after my order but the bags didn’t seem to be moving. I contacted Alf the label and they told me with certainty that they had been delivered and gave me a link to the shipping notification. The link showed the bags had not been sent yet so I replied that there was a mix up and that I wanted a refund. They then told me their bags shipped from overseas, I.e. they drop ship their products, and that they were still on their way.
Almost two weeks after placing my order, my bags finally arrived. To say I am underwhelmed is a vast understatement. They are cheap and nasty and the tote looks like it wouldn’t hold up to anything more than a packet of tissues without losing its shape or something poking a hole in it.
The pouch lining feels so cheap and almost like a woven plastic. It’s crinkly and noisy and definitely not luxe. The suede itself stinks, a really nasty chemical smell that must be a result of the cheap manufacturing.
Having bought my items on sale, I cannot get a refund and definitely don’t want to exchange them for something else from this brand as I don’t expect the quality to be any better.
Don’t make my mistake, skip this purchase. There are cheaper options if this is the quality you are happy with and better quality options out there if this is the price range you are shopping in.”
“I’ve purchased several pouches for the carabiner collection from Alf the Label. The leather (Napa) is gorgeous and high quality. The hardware on the pouches and the carabiners are sturdy and gorgeous. I’m happy I gave the brand a chance from being influenced by an ad.”
“Suede Grande Pouch.
Such a beautiful and practical bag. You can use it in multiple ways and the way it looks with Ripple Grande Crabiner is just amazing!”
“He repetido compra porque se dan todas las circunstancias para ello, el bolso de rejilla lo he regalado y me lo compré yo también, y en todos los casos ha sido un verdadero acierto,también regalé un conjunto de varias piezas con argolla ,y lo mismo, genial,pero además,son súper amables y muy eficaces,tanto en el envío como en el trato,por todo ello,seguiré muy pendiente de sus increíbles productos”
“I am seriously addicted to Alf the label - it is so good as an adhd traveller who needs to be organised but can never find things! I have been looking for years and now finally found a designer that “gets it””
“The Ari nappy bag is literally the worst nappy bag. For $500 it’s so floppy and loses its shape so easily, not big enough to fit much. Save your money and buy something more user friendly.”
“I love the Dumpling handbag! It's so versatile, and deceivingly large. It fits all my essentials (even my water bottle) and it's great from everywhere to school drop off to a dinner date. I prefer the shoulder bag style but do have a carabiner to add a little luxe to my outfit on special occasions.”
“We purchased Luxe Signature Ari backpack as a gift for my daughter costing around $500. The metal zip failed when the bag was about a year old and by the time it was reported to Alf the label it was just over a year old. They refused to repair the zip at their expense however offered $50 towards a repair that we organised. We had to take it to a local boot maker who replaced the zip with a plastic zip. While functional it doesn’t look as nice as original. After several emails Alf the label did reimburse $50 with proof of the cost of repair which was more than $50. Very disappointed in spending $500 to have it fail on such a short time without a lot of use and what I consider poor backup service from which is clearly a manufacturing fault. I do appreciate it was past their specified warranty period so I guess I should be thankful for $50.
Also they are very poor at replying to emails and require several emails to get responses out of them. If you are considering a purchase have a look at google maps of their “office” at 2/78 Hight street Fremantle. While they refer to their Team I suspect you’re actually dealing with a part time backyard business with little support.
Product is good, shame about the backup and communication.”
“Black nylon Brody Weekender bag.
Absolutely the best travel bag that I have ever owned. You can pack so much stuff in it and it weights almost nothing so that is a bonus when you travel only with cabin luggage on the plane.
Love the design and the quality.”
“My Anita carryall is the perfect little wallet/bag that has compartments, a zipper pocket for coins, a section to keep my notes flap and even fits my phone! I’ve been looking for something like this for awhile and I’m so glad I finally found it! Next I wil have to buy a strap so I can wear it too!”
“My dumpling bag in pecan is a beautiful shade of tan. I love the shape and the multiple ways of wearing. It’s also very comfortable when worn on the shoulder. Though the crossbody option is too short on me, I’m looking to buying a strap to wear it as a longer crossbody from the website.
Overall I love the bag and it also reminds me of both a dumpling and a crossaint!”
“Loving my new Grande Pouch in Rodeo! Fits everything I need, looks totally chic, and is such a statement. I particularly love it with my gold carabiner.”
“I have been using my Ariel bag for everyday wear and I’m loving the size, all the pockets inside to keep myself organised and it’s very comfortable to wear!”
“Love my suede dumpling bag. Great size, fits all my essentials with room. Super versatile, transforms from day to night with the removable and adjustable strap. Quality look lux - will purchase more pieces once I save up!”
“I purchased a $500 bag just over two years ago. Recently one of the clasps broke and I took it to a repair shop who told me they weren’t able to fix it because it is plastic.
I contacted Alf saying that I loved the handbag which was otherwise in great condition and appreciated that it was no longer under warranty but would love it if they could repair it or send a replacement part at my expense because it was in otherwise such great shape.
Three emails over a month have received no response. For a company which sells very expensive bags - made with plastic parts - and provides itself on its sustainability and quality credentials, this is seriously pathetic.”
