Review on πŸ‘œ VASCHY Vintage Water Resistant Canvas Satchel: Messenger Bag for Men, Suitable for 14-17inch Laptops and Briefcases by Maxwell Thomas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice, sturdy bag with lots of pockets, but not suitable for air travel.

This is a very good soft computer bag for commuting, but it is not suitable for travelers. For travel, especially on a plane, I would prefer a lighter bag so I don't carry extra weight that I don't need. I would also like a bag with an external laptop sleeve to make it easier to pull out when going through security at the airport. This bag is made of heavy canvas and feels very durable. (The tarpaulin is heavy. The bag itself isn't that heavy) The laptop compartment has plenty of padding to protect your laptop. However, I've never had a problem when I needed to protect my laptop from the outside world, so I think the padding is just extra weight. The inner compartment offers plenty of space. I can easily get a large laptop, a book and headphones there. To get to the laptop, you need to unzip and open the flap, and then open the middle compartment. This is good if you want to make it difficult for someone to get their laptop (it will be difficult for someone to steal your laptop unless they steal the whole bag). It has many zippered pockets, so you can take many things with you. and keep everything separate. I love that it has multiple outside zipped pockets so you don't have to open the whole bag. However, I don't need as many compartments and would be happy about less and less weight. All zippers and flap closures are strong and work well. can absorb a lot. At the same time, it is not too heavy and not bulky. If you have a lot of stuff, feel like you need to protect your laptop with some padding, and don't mind a little extra weight, this is a great bag. For example, I think this would be a great bag for a salesperson who needs compartments for business cards and promotional brochures. I personally would prefer a lighter case with fewer pockets that allows for easier access to the laptop.

Pros
  • Not only useful for its intended purpose
Cons
  • I have no particular complaints about it, everything is fine
