 If its good enough for Jack Bauer, its good enough for me! Jan 05, 2009
Could not be more pleased!
SUPPLIER:
Purchased a Black Heavyweight Classic Messenger bag through Shoprockcandy, as they were the supplier the lowest price available. It arrived on time, with no defects to mention. I live in Canada and the shipping fees were reasonable at around 11 bucks.
DESCRIPTION:
I had spent a great deal of time researching the other messenger bags on amazon. I read hundreds of reviews before deciding to go with this product. I was looking for one made with durable material and a wide strap. It needed to be manly enough, so that I didn't look like I was carrying a purse around and professional enough to take to work. I received exactly what I had wanted.
There are two front pockets, roughly able to accomodate 4 dvds each. These pockets have no locking mechanisms, but are covered by the front flap, which is velcroed to the front of the bag. There are also two pockets on either end capable of holding a water bottle/coffee mug easily. They are complete with a snap, which is only useful if you carry something can sized, or something other than a drinking container. The main compartment is extremly large, you could easily pack a change of clothes, or 2 large dictionaries. Again, no locking mechanism...it is covered by the flap. There is also a small zippered flap pocket within the main compartment. This pocket can easily store a mans wallet or mp3/cell phone.
OVERALL:
I use the bag daily to take my lunch, agendas, books, water bottle, mp3 player, etc to work. It holds all this and more.I've been using it for 3 months now, with no signs of wear & tear. Only complaint, is that the velcro doesnt always align correctly to make a strong connection...although I've not lost anything as of yet, I felt I should relay this information. Overall 5 out of 5 stars...highly recommended.
IMPORTANT!!!!!!!! - Olive Drab Color Nov 05, 2008
While it's not the exact color as photographed, I knew to expect it would be different. Anyone who ordered this exact bag and expected it to look as pictured, obviously isn't too bright. it IS 100% Cotton Canvas. For those who added pictures. I will be adding my own soon. When you actually put books into the bag it is virtually identical to the pictured version (worn color aside). Oh, and the strap. Yeah it's thin, but if it were wider it wouldn't look right. Everyone needs to remember, The one pictured looks more worn then a new one.
Best part of this back, the extra pen pockets and flap in front. Overall exceptionally functional and stylish to boot. Icing on the cake, seller shipped same day as ordered-received 4 days from date of ordering!!
Good for the price Nov 02, 2008
For $19.99 the bag isn't bad at all.
If you plan to carry multiple heavy books, messenger bags might not be for you by the way.
The bag works, and in my opinion is quite stylish.
good for this price Oct 28, 2008
Pros: firm, light, and cheap, and the style is cool
cons: seems too thin if you want to hold a laptop. and too soft to protect books or papers
 Looks nice but holds up terribly. Oct 20, 2008
First day the Velcro that keeps the flap down came off on one side.
One week into it some tearing was showing on the top of the bag.
Very lightly used. Holds two 1-inch paperback textbooks and three subject notebook every day.
Looks good though when it's closed.
