Definitely a 10 out of Page 16 of 1 The average laptop has a 9-inch screen (which is longer than an iPad, since the iPad is shaped more like a square, whereas most laptops are rectangles). In fact, the XS is large enough to use with a tablet as EDC. This size is large enough to carry on a plane as a personal item (32" total length + 23" width + twenty-five" height). Both bags can be locked down well with the twin buckles and tucked in corners preventing items from sliding out automatically when you kick
Last night in NYC it poured, and I walked to my car with no umbrella without an umbrella for about 6 blocks that night. Despite the fact that my bag was dry, the contents were still wet. As far as I can tell, it's doing a good job. No one in my bag was affected by water when I had ten manilla envelopes.
There is no such thing as a medium there.
Right-handed individuals should carry these bags on the left shoulder, as they are designed for right-handed use. Although it is possible to carry it in the other direction, you can not reach the cam buckle to adjust, and the comfort padding will not rest on your shoulder (it cannot reach It is for this reason that I returned mine. If you are left-handed, it is best to use a different brand.

This new bag has some different features that attracted me, so I thought, "Heck yeah, let's give it a try. ". After dropping everything in the previous medium bag, I noticed that it was very spacious! After fitting all my stuff into it, there was still extra room in the bag. Rather than order the large, I decided to go for a small and return the large if I didn't like To be on the safe side, I ordered a medium too. My collection of Timbuk2 bags consists of three different styles. The following are my thoughts on the small and medium bags from 2014. In small size If you need to carry a laptop and a few folders, the small bag is perfect. The bag has plenty of pockets so you can stay organized and have space for your smaller belongings. It was just too big for me, and I found it unpractical. My first year of teaching has led me to have no personal classroom, which means that I travel with my laptop, binder, lunch, mug, water bottle, and many folders in my bag
I could fit all of my belongings in this bag, including my binder, my laptop, and my However, it was a tight squeeze and the bag looked stuffed with all those things inside. Due to the fact that I still had to fit my extras into this bag, it was sadly left out of the photo. Please note *br/*br/*- A medium-sized business In the same vein as last year's bag, this With ease, I can fit all of my things mentioned in the small review. In addition, I can fit a mini first aid kit, mints, aspirin, post it notes, pens, pencils, and whatever small items I might Using this method, the only problem I found was that the water bottle (32 oz Nalgene) bulged on one side. In the end, it wasn't an enormous issue and I can get used to As I looked at the new features, I wish they didn't remove some things that I liked. 1) The In last year's bag, I found the three separate pockets to be more intuitive and more well organized. 1) The inside The pockets in this bag are all slash pockets, and there is only one large zipper at the top, in contrast to last year's model with several velcro pockets and pen spaces. 2) Timbuk2 included a small piece of fabric that you pull to tighten the bag instead of a cam buckle. I find it a little awkward to use at the moment, but it might just take me some time to adjust. Please note *br/*br/*- This new strap is incredible when it comes to comfort. Carrying a heavy bag is much more convenient and comfortable thanks to the air pockets. Again, I find this bag to be great, you can carry a lot of stuff in its medium size and still have plenty of room left over. Make sure you read the dimensions carefully if you're having trouble deciding between the two sizes, like I was. Small is capable of holding a 13" laptop easily, but there is not a lot of room for other items. This bag has more room than the small bag and can hold all *EDIT
The bags and contents of the bags are shown in more photos.
So, I was unsure whether I should get a medium or This bag is the perfect size for me as I am 6'2 and the small size is the best size for me. I am absolutely pleased with the craftsmanship and construction of Despite the bag's lightweight construction, the stitching feels sturdy and looks professional, even on the inside (where other messenger bags fall short). It is not an overnight bag for me, but rather a day bag that I take everywhere with me. The messenger bag style is my favorite because I can wear it on my body in different positions and I have less trouble getting into it (while still on my body) than a backpack would. With the color choice, I am just at an age where I just don't want to wear 'black' anymore. Color is something I try to incorporate whenever possible. To describe the color of this red, I would say that it falls into the cherry tomato red family. There is red fire engine paint on the vehicle. Despite the fact that I am color blind, I like how clearly it stands out to the eye. It has been possible for me to pare down what I take with me, and now I'm down to just a tablet, journal, and a few other As I mentioned initially, bag sizes are going to vary depending on person, but this bag has a small size I like. For now, I'm very happy with my purchase. I will probably get the medium as a crash bag for overnight trips. Feel free to let me know what you think if you like this review.
Quality and durability seem good, but I didn't realize that there are no outside pockets or even a mini one to store my keys, or even just throw in a quick item without first unclipping or unvelcroing the I can't reach my keys when I'm walking to my car because most of my work clothes don't have pockets. I have to take them off and open the entire thing After getting my mail, I wanted to throw it in the bag as soon as possible. Unfortunately, I was holding something in my other hand so I couldn't flip the whole thing open and put it in, so I just had to carry it until I could put something down and open it up. Each bag I've used for commuting has had a pocket where I could put an envelope Is that something you can't expect on a bag of such high price? Although I looked at the picture before ordering it, it is hard to see that it does not have pockets since it is black, and I assumed it would have at least one since all of them have pockets. The bottle I would have returned would not be returnable due to a spill, so I won't be able to return it. As I use it almost every day, it annoys me to no end. Despite the quality of construction and the large size, one plus is how well it is built. In addition to my purse, I wanted a bag that could hold my lunch, which in some cases entails a large salad, and my shoes occasionally if I have to walk a lot. Those things can all fit in it.
