My first messenger bag broke today. I was wearing it and I had my laptop, notebook, and school book all snugged in there. This bag was definitely not suitable for my use. I found that I sometimes carry more than I intend to. This bag was really meant for light cargo. I love the design of the bag but it was just not functional for my daily use. I got it as a Christmas present that was on sale for only $30. It's retailed at $90, but it's not worth the full price. Anyways, I was walking to class in a hurry and I suppose the combination of the heavier bag and bouncing was too much stress for the strap. Snap!
I was going to a buy a Timbuk2 bag before I got this one recently, but they discriminate against lefty's. If I want the cam buckle on my right side, I have to make my own with their custom bag option. They don't pre-make them and it's $40 cheaper to buy it already made.
I'll be saving up for a Chrome bag. For now, I'll have to go back to my trusty JanSport back pack. It's never failed me.
