Review on Small Messenger Bag For Men Women: Casual Work, Canvas Satchel, Bookbag For School/Traveling/Camping by Michael Burdette

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Slight wear and tear concerns, one time purchase.

I purchased this as a small go bag for carrying a netbook or large 10" tablet and it is as advertised. The only issues are that the size is a little smaller than I imagined. It says it should be able to fit a 13" laptop, but my 13" netbook seems to stretch the limits of the bag. I doubt I could fit anything else in there. It's surprising because the netbook is actually quite thin. It was pretty cheap though so I'm not too worried about it. The front flap is held in place by hook and loop "Velcro" so that is a wear and tear concern. Would be nicer to have snaps to hold the flap. There is a zipper in the main pouch to close it but it doesn't go from end to end and there is a massive piece of the zipper not sewn to the bag itself that hangs out of the main pouch. It will accomplish the job but these are some disappointments. If this bag breaks I will look elsewhere rather than purchase a second time.
