MactsoVintage Canvas Satchel Messenger Bag for Men Women,Travel Shoulder bag 13.5" Laptop Bags Bookbag (Coffee)

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.

The bag is perfect! Nice color and material and roomy it's perfect for what I need it for.

Holds up well and it fits a MacBook 13in with enough room for additional folders, papers, etc. material is pretty sturdy and the price is reasonable.

Great quality, simple and elegant. I use it for my Bible studies and my Bible and note books fit perfectly inside. Plus extra pockets for pens and stuff

Delivered on time. Product was as described. This is an excellent book bag that I use for my seminary class. It holds a notebook, and few folders, two small books and my Bible. It has a slot for pens/pencils, and my reading glasses. I also love the tan color!

Overall this is a wonderful little bag for the price that’s offered! It’s best selling is definitely the size as most messenger bags are in the 15in to 16in and this bag being 13.5 was exactly what I was looking for. I’m able to comfortably fit my iPad, a large book, a writing journal, and pens. I will say that the bag itself has very little structure so if you don’t have much in there it can look a little floppy and the zippers probably will not last you a lifetime. However the size makes this bag great for travel, studying at a coffee shop or library, or just an easy go to bag for whenever you’re heading out and may need a book or journal. The coffee color is a very nice dark khaki that I find to be very versatile. Overall, if you’re looking for an affordable and small messenger bag then this one should be on your list.

The media could not be loaded. Why did you pick this product vs others?:In the photo, it appeared that the outside pockets would be useful for a wallet and phone however, both out side pockets one on the front and one on the back are so shallow. They will not even accommodate an iPhone 14 nor can you get a wallet in either of the pockets The material is solid and durable however, the pockets are poorly laid out. I would recommend against this item.

Exactly as pictured good size light weight nice quality
