Review on Messenger Briefcase Shoulder Computer Waterproof by Corey Singh

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Plenty of pockets inside the bag for functional use

Ordered for a friend's birthday but very surprised at the overall quality and finish of the bag itself! The web is full of leather bags, but there have been some pretty promising reviews and photos for this model. I wasn't sure about the horse leather (similar to saddle leather) or the photos of the older man carving things, but my friend was generally happy with the bag and he's good with leather bags. Nice with a strap on the side if you want to carry it on your shoulder. A bag in a pleasantly faded brown color with two closures on the outside. When the bag is opened, the contents are protected by another zipper. There are 15 pockets in total where you can put all sorts of papers, iPads, etc. The inside is made of a different material and the pocket has a slight odor that will disappear after a few days. They recommend using some wax on the zipper, which I might point out - you may find the zipper isn't the smoothest and gets stuck at times. I'm also not the biggest fan of the material on the outside of the bag - if you accidentally scratch it or leave a mark, it will leave a faded mark. The bottom of the bag looks pretty sturdy but my friend has a couple of heavy laptops and chose not to use it as a laptop sleeve. I think it's great for storing files, documents and papers, but personally I wouldn't put anything too expensive in it just in case. So far he has been using it for several weeks and it has worked great!

Pros
  • 2️⃣ LOTS OF STORAGE AND POCKETS - The men's shoulder bag has a compartment for a 15.6 inch laptop as well as a 15, 14 and 13 inch Macbook/Laptop, a large compartment for documents. The unique front compartment with 7 pockets, pen pockets, phone pocket, power bank pocket and mesh pocket keeps your stuff organized and easy to find.
Cons
  • Not bad but...
