Commute Messenger Bag

Its comfortable and light love it

This is my third Timbuk2 messenger bag and its the best one yet. The new area for my Mac and iPad is much more easily accessible and it goes through airport security without unloading. The main compartment has great pockets and dividers, keeping my bag well organized. I keep my sunglasses in the new outside pocket. I think the handle is essential. Unlike my other Timbuk2s, this bag stands up without flopping over on its side. As always, the bag is tough and flexible; a perfect replacement for my black leather briefcase. The all-black looks makes it appropriate for more conservative business settings.

Great bag! Good for travel.

I love this bag. Had been searching for some time for a replacement for my Nike messenger bag. I Fly somewhere every week and I carry a lot of stuff. Lots of pockets, two soft pockets on outside for soda/water bottles. Soft external sleeve big enough for two tablets, plus room for for my Anker 20A power pack. Inside more than big enough to carry my weeks supply of healthy snacks, an Amazon Basics Nintendo Case which I use for carrying all my electronics cables and power supplies, vitamin case and a 1 inch Levenger binder. Interior zippered pocket protects the passport, company badge and other sensitive items. Convenient front pocket to stash my airplane bluetooth headset. To finish it off a very comfortable strap, quickly adjustable. Lots of room and I have jammed even more in when I needed to (thin laptop, sweatshirt, gloves, hat in addition to everything else already in there.) If you need a roomy bag that has a place for everything and helps keep everything in its place, this is the one.

First off, let me state that this is a fantastic bag overall. I am giving it 4 stars because I have some nit-picks with it so I cant call it perfect, but still it is a great bag.

Not enough pockets on the inside and didnt realize there was velcro on the outside which helps with the flap but then you have pull it every time you want to open it. Laptop weight is distributed on the outside for TSA which is nice for the airport but not for carrying after that. Disappointing bag but got it at a good price so will live with it for now.

This bag just feels like quality when you hold it. Tough seams, durable hardware, comfortable design.

Looks like they took the best of the regular messenger bag and added it to the last version of the commute bag and got it spot on. The strap is well padded, it has a good handle, and has all the pockets you need. It has good balance with or without a laptop in it when you put it on the floor. Is lightweight and comfortable over the shoulder or over your body.

Nicely constructed bag, it does have many pockets however the majority of them are open, it would be incredible to have two more small zippered pockets. the front phone pocket is a bit too small for a full sized smartphone (6S), well it fits but you cannot zip it closed.

Love it!
