Good, functional case - I've never used a Timbuk2 product before and was unsure if the medium Soma would work for me as a daily laptop and work bag. Overall, the Soma is well made, durable, and the front zippered pocket offers good organization; plus the shoulder straps are comfortable. I would've liked some expandability to the body of the bag to accommodate additional paperwork or a hardcover book when needed, but it fits the bill overall as a daily work case/bag.

Great bag for laptop - I have carried laptops for years and I hate the standard bag with the handle and shoulder strap which never seems to be comfortable. This allows you to carry like a tote and not over pack. It still has room for my laptop, accessories and a reasonable amount of paperwork for traveling without getting too heavy. I really like the design of the front accessory pocket, also.

Does NOT fit 15" Macbook Pro - Well, you can force it in, but it's a tight fit, and to remove it, you have to stick your hand in all the way to the bottom to "scoop" it out. This bag does come in a large size, which I realized only later. If Zappos had included this information in the description they could have saved themselves a return.

Great for commutes! I love this bag! The center area is for your laptop. It has all around cushioning w/ enough space for files, etc. Great look if you're wearing your suit or a nice outfit w/ heels. It's very sturdy and definitely upholds that Timbuk2 name. Great bag!

Work bag - I love this bag. It’s small enough to take on the train to work everyday, (I live in Chicago) but there is plenty of room for your work things. It's a good combo on style and protection for your laptop!
