Osprey FlapJill Mini SKU: #7727743

I've only had this bag for a few days now, but I already love it. I am fairly short (5'5") and the Mini is just right for my height and is perfect for my short bike ride to work. I can fit my e-reader, a small wristlet and wallet, my phone, iPod, my bike lock, and a small lunch bag inside. Without the lunch bag and bike lock, there's room for a change of clothes and a few toiletries, or a water bottle. Overall, the organization is great - there aren't too many pockets or sleeves, the bag is easy to secure and open, and the easy access pockets are good for keys and other small things. The main compartment is roomy, considering the small size of the bag. I can't comment on the water resistance yet. There are two main things that I think could be improved. The strap is comfortable and easily adjustable, but unless I'm missing something, there's nowhere to tuck the extra material. The bag is most comfortable for me sitting a bit higher on my back, so the strap has been shortened quite a bit. This probably won't be an issue for taller people or people who like to have the bag sit lower. And this is just a quibble, but the pocket labeled for the mp3 player barely fits my iPod Touch, so it'd be nice if it were a little larger. But I can just put the iPod in the other pocket.

This bag is great! I bought the khaki color. Just the right size to take all you would need! Very trendy and every time I have taken this bag along, at least one person will say that it’s a nice bag! If you are looking for a laptop bag, then this may be a little too small. However, you can take a laptop in it, but that is all it will hold!

This is an awesome little bag. My only slight complaint about it really isn't its fault--I found it by searching for laptop bags that would fit my MacBook Air. And while it totally will fit in the bag, and the bag is padded to protect it, it's not really a laptop bag, i.e., there isn't a separate pocket for the laptop that keeps it protected from your other stuff in the main compartment. So I probably won't use it as a laptop bag after all, but just as a super cool regular messenger bag.

I've never owned a crossbody bag before. Absolutely loved it. I bought it before leaving on vacation--great in the airport as well as on top of a mountain. Easy access to passports, then easy access to the camera and small video camera later. Highly recommend.

Just the right size for travel. Bought khaki color for my travel to Asia. It is durable, stylish and withstand rain and dust. Wish it came with a zipper for the main compartment. But the inner draw cord held up all my stuff well. It has a good quality workmanship!

I really like the bag! I am using it right now on a trip to the Dominican Republic. I have a 22 month old baby and it works well for diaper bag, too. There is not a ton of space but it is a very manageable size.

I love this bag. I got it right before a trip and it worked out beautifully. You can fit so much in it and it looks very nice. I'm always getting compliments on it. And of course, the delivery from Zappos was fast!

The perfect bag the perfect size! Size compartments. Comfortable. Holds my journal, planner, water bottle and random junk and papers I haul to and from work.

Really cute bag with lots of small compartments and is really lightweight. It can get cramped if you need to put a lot of things in there, but I'm a minimalist and needed a light bag for my poor back. Also, it fits my iPad with case and folders with 8x11 sheets.

I love this bag! It's the perfect size and the color and design is exactly what I was looking for. Most messenger bags look too masculine so I was very happy to find this cute option. Along with the dimensions listed in the description, the name has the word Mini in it so if you're looking for a larger bag, this probably wouldn't be a good choice!

I needed a bag that would hold all my purse stuff plus an iPad for the times I need to walk into work for meetings. I have a 40 minute walking commute each way. I don't like having a big thing on my back, so backpacks are out, and I like to be able to reach in easily for my phone without having to heave something off my back. Standard-sized messenger bags are overkill unless I need to take my laptop, and my leather shoulder bag wasn't cutting it. So I went searching on Zappos for a small sized messenger bag. This bag is perfect. It's very lightweight, has a very comfortable adjustable padded strap, and holds everything I need for my weekly trips. This bag will easily hold an iPad in a case, two eyeglasses cases, wallet, large cosmetic case, water bottle, compact umbrella, 5x7 notebook, and various smaller items. I like the outside zipper pocket for my phone so I don't have to open the bag when my phone rings. It has two additional zipped compartments under the flap which I also like - one of them has a hook for keys. I also really like that the lining is not black, so I can find stuff in there. It is very sturdy and well designed - it can be lifted by the handle even if the buckle isn't fastened without stuff falling out. It isn't that beautiful - I'm not crazy about the flower design printed on the outside. But it's my go-to bag for walking with a moderate load.

Function tonal, durable as well as cute. Took this on a 3 week trip to the UK and France and carried it everywhere. Big enough to hold iPad, wallet, larger Canon camera and guide books- as well as all the other small stuff. Love the zippered pouch in the front and side, and the separate area on from for cell phones. Great closure (Velcro and a clicking fastener). Felt reasonably stylish- and all contents secure. I would highly recommend -- a great value as well!
