I ordered the large bag to use for my laptop for some upcoming travel, but after seeing how roomy it is and all of the compartments, I will also use it as my purse and overnight bag too! This is a quality bag. I'm 5'2" and worried about the comments about the length of the shoulder strap, but it adjusts perfectly. You can't go wrong with this. Wish I had ordered all 3 sizes!
This bag is great if you are 6 feet tall... Not everyone wears the bag across the chest - some carry a bag on their shoulder. If that is how you carry your bag, this is not the one for you. I'm 5 feet tall and with the strap at its shortest point, the bag hit me in the back of the knee when I walked (which made me knee buckle more than once). I actually returned the bag beause it just didn't work for me.
This bag is great. My son is a senior in HS and needed a new bag. He is going to college next year and this bag is great for all the stuff he needs to carry. The size is huge! It is well made and the color choices were great. My son approved of the bag and thats a biggie!
I bought this bag initially as a big handbag, but it's more like the size of a computer bag. It's good for my art supplies and the product is what it states, a messenger bag. Looks and feels sturdy.
