It works, love it
I am a "senior citizen" who thought that a bag was for the younger set. I was encouraged by my son to get something like this since he found that it was very useful. I am happy I listened to him. The bag lets me put everything I need for my daily goings-on. I know where everything is, it being so handy, I do not have my pockets full of everything anymore. It looks like a man thing and at the same time something a woman could use. The canvas material looks strong. Only time will tell how durable it is. It does have enough pockets for all your stuff with an adequate-sized one for your cell phone.

Worth it
I use this as a purse and love it. Strap is wide enough that it does not dig into my shoulder. Makes me wish I had bought this a long time ago.

I love it, but there are some missed opportunities
Pros: I love the style of the bag and it will hold most anything that you need to carry for the day. I am able to carry my 13" MacBook Air when I need to, but it does take up a lot of space in the bag. I carry my iPad with me most of the time and it fits fine. The style is wonderful. I added some velcro on the front for morale patches and stuff. The strap is long enough for me to carry it cross body, and I am a big guy. I have to adjust it down if I am carrying over a single shoulder. It is perfect for a man purse for everyday use. Cons: There were some missed opportunities with this bag. The front pocket on the flap only goes about 4" deep. The only thing I can carry in that pocket is my passport and a pen. It is very shallow. The pocket could have been made the length of the flap to give it some extra space. The pocked on the back side of the bag is even more shallow. It is maybe 3" deep. I can only keep my keys in it. Not even my iPhone (not the big one, the regular sized one) will fit in the back pocket. The same is true for the inside small zippered pocket. I can only fit my wallet in it. Verdict: If one were to ask if I would buy it again, I would say I would. For me the pros outweigh the cons. I love the style and it carries most everything I need for a day. If you need a bag with larger pockets, you may need to look at other options. If you just need a messenger bag or a man purse, this will fit the bill.

Handy daily bag
I've been looking for a good daily use bag for years and this has been absolutely perfect! It's small and lightweight, so you can bring it anywhere without worrying about it. It has small pockets everywhere for little things and one big pocket to lose stuff in. So many times I've had bags where the internal pockets are so huge you lose anything in it that fits in the small openings, but this thing has just the right size pockets that actually make sense. The internal pockets are just enough for wallet, keys, and a couple little things to bring with you. All in all it feels designed as a bag that's masculine and sheek with the function of a purse in mind. Perfect to fit a small notebook, pencil bag, tablet (my 13" Surface fits fine with its rugged case on), wallet, keys, snacks, and whatever else I may need where I'm going. Honestly, I don't know how I left the house before with all of these things rammed into pockets or thrown on the passenger seat while I'm trying to get all my kid's things together too. This changed my life!

Great Price
For the price, it was a great deal. It’s comfortable on my shoulder and pretty spacious. The zippers slide really well, they are metal and not plastic, very durable. There are a view pockets, allowing me to put my wallet, phone, small note pad, and anything else in them to keep my bag organized. For only $20 it’s a really nice bag.

Still in excellent condition after being heavily used as an EDC for a year
Updated 1 year review: This bag is great. Been using it for 15 months with it being my daily carry for most of that time. The only real improvement I have made to the bag myself is always keeping a few sheets of dense 8.5x11 sheets of cardboard in the bag to help it maintain its shape when I remove my iPad. There are no signs of tearing and no failures of any of the hardware. Its so compact that I can easily stuff it into another bag on vacation so I have a lighter bag option available to me. For under $30 this bag is a steal! I would highly recommend this if you want a highly versatile and durable thin and light bag. Original Review: I recently upgraded my iPad Pro from an 11in to a 13in. As a result of this upgrade, I could no longer carry it with me in my go to Peak Design sling bag that I use too carry my camera when I am out and about. I wanted something that was as small as possible that could fit my iPad and 1-2 spare lenses comfortably. The large front pockets on this are the perfect size for large Prime and Zoom lenses which was ultimately the reason why I picked this up. The only added accessory I added to make this work for my uses case was a Peak Design quick release plate on the strap. The other day I took this out to DC for the cherry blossom festival with all the gear in the included picture and this bag handled everything I wanted comfortably. Usually when lugging around lenses in bags not designed for them it feels like I am awkwardly overstuffing the bag. This bag felt like I had plenty of room to spare. One of the front pockets I used for a powerful charging brick and cable. The other packet was dedicated to whichever lens I was not currently using. I also tested a standard Moleskine sketchbook and a 2nd Gen iPad Mini in those pockets as well with no issues. The outside front zipper pocket was left empty. The back zipper pocket comfortably fit my IEMs and Bluetooth DAC/AMP. The interior zipper pocket can fit 4 spare batteries comfortably and a wireless camera remote. If you are using an iPad Pro 13in with the Magic Keyboard, then the zipper wont close with the Apple Pencil attached and barely fits if you remove the pencil. A 13in MacBook Pro fits very comfortably in the main pocket. Be aware that there is no protective lining in the bag or extra compartments. This makes the bag far more flexible than similar sized laptop bags and slightly less bulky at the risk of scratching your device. I have leather skins on my devices so I see that as a non issue for my usecase. The Peak Design clip on the strap did not feel like it hindered my movement more then my usually method of wearing it on my belt. It was easy to remove when wearing the bag over one shoulder. I did not test the comfort on my far shoulder around my neck. I like the material it is made of, though only time will tell if the stitches will hold up. The affordable price point along with the flimsy feeling main zipper does make me question the longevity of this product. The strap is very simple so upgrading it to something with padding may be worthwhile if you plan on using this everyday. I also dont care for how this bag can collapse in on itself when it is empty or does not have a laptop/iPad inside giving it structure. It looks a little tacky when it crumbles up. The only support it has is in its base. This bag is not water resistant which is understandable at the price point. That being said, none of these cons are deal breakers for me. Overall, I do think this will be my travel camera bag at least until I can afford to justify getting a modern iPad mini to fit in my Peak Design sling. Even then, I do see my self continuing to use this bag as its way slimmer than my laptop sling and peak design bag. It’s small size and lack off supporting material makes it easy to stuff in a larger bag when on trips so I have the flexibility to break my gear up into just the essentials.

Nice Casual Bag With Some Flaws
A 3-star review almost seems too harsh for this bag, because I actually quite like it. It's stylish, lightweight, and has a ton of pockets. However, its flaws are a bit tough to overlook. For one, its pockets tend to be small and generally flush to the body of the bag. They have fairly low capacity, and anything that isn't slim and flat will create a large, noticeable bulge. I can put my laptop and two notebooks in there for carrying to class, but I can't put my laptop charger in without causing the bag to distend uncomfortably. Since the Velcro attachment points are on the two secondary pockets, it's hard to figure out what they'll accept. Several of the smaller zipper pockets won't even hold a handful of pencils without messing up the entire bag's ability to close. There's no shoulder cushion, so if you carry heavy books or a laptop, it can start to wear down on your neck/shoulder, especially if you walk around a lot. The strap also has a habit of becoming loose as you walk around, forcing you to re-tighten it frequently. Also, since the point of attachment between the strap and the bag isn't anchored down by anything other than a bit of fabric, the buckle will slip around and end up awkwardly sideways no matter how much you try to correct. Overall, however, this bag is alright for what it advertises as: a stylish messenger bag. It's definitely not a replacement for a backpack, even if your backpack is chronically under-filled. But if you're just going down the street with your laptop and a notebook, it's a nice pick.

Great little buy
After reading the reviews I wasn’t sure, but for the price, was willing to take the risk…. I would have paid double for this item. It’s well made, it’s lining is fabulous, and I get asked where I bought it almost every time I use it. For a cost effective and quite cool satchel, this is the one… it’s light and fits my computer and training tools easily!
