Exactly what I've been looking for

Rating:*****
I've been looking for a bag for my daily commute for a year, and this fit the bill perfectly. The main pocket has a padded notebook sleeve with a velcro clasp. There's room for some other items, perhaps lunch or a sweater, but not lots of room. The outer pocket has Timbuk2's standard array of zippered and specially sized pockets: pen pockets, cell phone pockets, a strap of webbing with a metal clasp for keys, etc... I am particularly fond of the magnetic clasps for the outer pocket so I can access the contents while driving. There are also a couple of small external pockets which I use for my phone earbuds. Finally, the shoulder strap is detachable, so it can present very professionally as a briefcase.

Nice Quality Laptop Bag

Rating:****
I'm using this bag to store and tote my laptop The padding does a fine job, without eating up too much of the main compartment space. I like the corduroy. Other reviewers recommended this one for some added space versus the 'Coder' model, and I agree completely. There is enough room to include the power cord, the shoulder strap (when not being used), plus a jacket, book, and other portable electronics, etc...yet it's not too big to be uncomfortable to carry around. And it looks great...the company touts longevity with the bag, and I think that should hold for both durability and looks...

Nice bag, good value

I use the bag to transport laptop(s) to and from work and it is great for this purpose. It is lightweight and so does not add to the burden of transporting computers. Recently, I had a 15" MacBook Pro AND a 12" HP in the bag at the same time. That was heavy, but still manageable.

Roomy and comfortable.

This laptop bag has enough room in it to carry all you would need on a business trip. There is room for any extra items you might need for your laptop plus space for files. The shoulder strap is comfortable and can also fit over your luggage handle. Plus it is just great looking!

The right size and green too!

Rating:****
The strap connections add to the side to side length of the case and its main zipper, and create flaps that can catch onto things. I do not see the purpose for this design. The Hemp fabric is very sturdy. The size is great for short business trips.

Nice bag

Rating:*****
This bag is a nice size and I like the material - not boring black nylon like so many other bags. The strap is nice. It could use a pocket for papers but other than that it's great.

Good Quality Bag

Rating:****
I use this for international travel. It is easy to sling over the shoulder or on a rollaboard handle. Might be nice with lighter inside colors to help see contents.
