This is the first messenger bag that I have seen that has two large zippered interior compartments. Although the largest compartment is often used for large files, envelopes, notebooks and laptops, it is fantastic to have the added security of a zipper. The zipper on the largest compartment makes the bag more versatile, in that you can carry smaller items in it without the fear of them sliding out of the bag. The two small outer side pockets are also very secure with industrial strength hook-and-loop fasteners that do not open unless you intend to open them - your cell phone or MP3 player isn't going to fall out. I've looked at at least a dozen different brands and designs of messenger bags, but this bag is by far the best!
This bag is awsome! There are just enough pockets for my labtop, camera, ipod, headphones, and cell phone. The one problem i found with it was the lock. The part you slip it into should be lower. The flap when it it locked in sticks up to much also. i found a way to stop it though by taking off the lock and just sliding the strap through instead. All in all this bag is very nice.
I am a full-time, female student who was looking for a sturdy bag that would hold my school essentials and cell phone, gum, keys, water bottle, etc. This bag is an excellent choice! I can fit everything in it and it's not bulky and it looks great. And although it is, I think, specifically sold to men, I it's not overly masculine. Great choice for guy or girl!
