Bag is extremely durable, I will not buy another brand. Recommend this bag to all. Wish this bag came with a beefier shoulder strap, though.

This is my first ever rolltop backpack, and I love it! I wasn't too sure if it was going to be practical for everyday school use, but it isn't at all difficult to get stuff into and out of this bag. Besides, it will come in super handy when I go on short trips to friend's houses for a few days. It also proved extremely water-resistant the other day when I walked about 45 minutes with it in pouring rain (don't judge, I was stranded!). Anyway, I love this bag, it's very comfortable and large, and it suits my everyday needs perfectly. And of course, Zappos' service is, as always, above and beyond. I love this bag, and I love Zappos.

I've not really had many occasions to use it, but this bag seems pretty good so far. I was looking for something that would be acceptable for an office job as a kind of briefcase/work bag, and that would also be stylish enough for a day at a museum or on the town. I think it works. The bag itself is well put together. It's got a lot of pockets of varying sizes and of various types (zipper, velcro, etc). There's definitely enough space to fit whatever you might need in there. If you're one of those people who need a lot of stuff, you might want to think about getting a Large, although I don't think it's available in this style. Check the other Timbuk2 messenger bags. I'm quite pleased with the bag and would recommend it. I gave it 4 stars for comfort because I haven't quite gotten used to it yet. The pad on the shoulder strap slips around a bit. When worn on the shoulder, it doesn't feel like the shoulder pad has much purpose on a suit jacket.

Love this bag! It\'s similar to a messenger bag, but smaller. You can wear it as a shoulder bag or across the body. It has lots of space for all your stuff, with several pockets to keep it all organized. It also has a pad on the strap to keep it from digging into your shoulder. I got the dark brown, which is a nice rich chocolate color.

In general I like the bag: simple, waterproof (when you cinch the top), pretty big. My one issue with it is the fact that the handles feel short. I\'m about 6\', 200lbs and when I\'m a wearing a winter jacket it\'s a little tricky getting the handles over my shoulder. Granted, most men typically would not purchase a bag like this, but bigger handles would be nice. I wouldn\'t mind if they cut down on the carrying capacity and made longer handles/straps.\r\n\r\nThat\'s really my only gripe with it ... otherwise, pretty nice bag.

Perfect smaller messenger bag. Great for wandering cities or day treks. Carries water bottle, camera, wallet (in hidden inner zip pouch), cell phone, etc. Loved it in Egypt, riding camels, climbing the pyramids, shopping in crowded bazaars.

I've had my Timbuk2 for several years - and love it! It has plenty of room for all my stuff, is extremely durable and comes in fun color combinations. My boyfriend has had his eyes on mine for quite some time and with his birthday quickly approaching; I decided to treat him to one. I shopped around different internet sites and found Zappos to be most competitive in terms of pricing. I also liked the fact that shipping was free, both ways! By far though, the best part of my experience was the delivery process, which couldn’t have been easier. My boyfriend loves his Timbuk2. Zappos was a great experience!

This tote is actually better than it looks in the photos. There\'s a liner around the inner top that can be pulled shut with a drawstring; it expands the upper capacity by a fair bit. Well made, sturdy, a good basic tote bag. Wish the straps were a little longer...you can\'t really put them over your shoulder very well, but for the price you can\'t beat this one. I was going on a trip and couldn\'t find what I needed locally but, through the wonders of Zappo\'s overnight shipping, viola! I had what I needed, just in time.

Still trying to make up my mind on this bag. I think it is a perfect size and shape; it is just the the zippers are very stiff and hard to operate. I've tried "soaping" them, but it just made the zippers smell like scented soap. I can't tell if it is just my particular bag of if would be like this on all of them. Other than that, it is very nice for an everyday purse. Doesn't hold my water bottle (700ml), but lots of room for camera, iPod Touch, Blackberry, timbuk2 zip around wallet, calendar, other misc. I wear it over my shoulder (I'm 5;8") and it is perfect, a tad short for cross body. The brown is a very nice shade. I hope I get used to it because it seems really nice.

Just got this bag a couple of weeks ago. It's a lot bigger than what I expected, I would have gotten the small, but they didn't have it in stock and figured the medium would be fine as well. It is nice not having to put my laptop in a sleeve (such a hassle to zipper on and off!) and the bag has a lot of compartments and pockets which makes organizing all your little necessities a bit easier. I use it for work and it doubles as a great weekend/overnight bag as well (especially for flying!). Overall, although I would have liked something smaller, it is a great buy for the material and versatility!

Service was perfect: arrived quickly, no problems. Bag is just great. I have already traveled with it and it is sturdy, attractive, and has all kinds of pockets and compartments, making it just right for what I needed. It is very roomy, but worked well for airplane carry on. Highly recommended.

I am a petite, 5 feet tall girl and this bag is not overwhelming at all! I've been searching for the perfect bag that will fit my 15" Macbook Pro laptop and my school stuff (a pencil bag, 1" binder, a planner, two composition notebooks, a magazine, mp3 player, recorder, cell phone, lotion, safety goggles, bottle of hand sanitizer, a book, car keys and bottle of water; the only thing that doesn't fit is my lab coat) and not look like it's eating me alive. And I have found it! I have the gunmetal one and I really do appreciate the "curves" of the bag. It also feels very sturdy. When I don't have things like my binder and laptop, the bag neatly conforms to the curves of my body. My only gripe is that there is shoulder pad! The adjuster is located at a very uncomfortable position, right on top of my shoulder. I suppose Timbuk2 didn't include one because it's more under the category of a "tote" bag. Regardless, I love this bag. Also, I love Zappos! My order basically arrived the very next day. Thanks Zappos!

First, the bag is great. Large enough to carry everything, stronger than my back. I was afraid it was too large, but I tend to carry a ton of stuff so I went for it and am happy. Only down side is the strap is not padded; get the optional padded strap for 10 bucks. Second, Zappos is quick and easy to deal with plus they have a deal with AMEX to get membership rewards; made the bag even cheaper.

Awesome bag. Large enough for all my school books, plus folders. I am a college student with lots of books, but didn't want to drag along a rolling suitcase so I opted for the larger carry bag. It is lightweight. The strap is wide enough so it doesn't cut into your shoulder. A nice looking bag.

I really like the styling and the quality of the workmanship on the bag. There are tons of pockets to get organized with, and a great middle section for purs items. It is my main work bag. I would recommend it to anyone who needs a casual, functional bag for computer, papers, and personal items.

A great handbag! Enough room for a full-sized wallet and everything else I need to carry throughout the day (even a water bottle and a camera). Lots of little pockets on the inside, so small things don't fall to the bottom. A nice, long, thick strap lets me carry across body or I can adjust it to be shorter. My only complaint is the ballistic velcro on the flap, but I never need to worry about anything spilling out! I bought this bag for an upcoming overseas trip and I'm sure I will be very pleased with its versatility.

I bought this bag to use for school. I'm a full time grad student and generally have to bring all of my books and a laptop each day. Unfortunately, this bag has not worked out for me. Although it is quite large, which is a plus, the bag itself is somewhat heavy, adding to the overall weight of the load I carry each day. Not sure that this will work out as a carry-on or travel bag, but we'll see. I have bought several timbuk2 bags and have been very happy, just not quite sure what to do this one.

The bag was a little larger than expected but after using it for a month, I\'m very happy with the size. I can fit everything I into one bag instead of carrying a purse and a separate laptop bag. The quality is excellent and the waterproofing came in handy during a rainstorm. Got the silver color. Love it!

I have had this bag about two weeks now and I love it! I am an avid Timbuk2 fan, and have/have had many of their bags. However, now I am a graduate student and a little older, and carrying too much in my medium size messenger gives me back problems. I found the solution in this bag! With a laptop pocket for the days I need to take mine to campus, and a design that seems to expand perfectly to fit what you need, I can take all that I need, but not the extras we tend to throw in when given too much room. It's also a very attractive bag (I have the gunmetal) that works well as a shoulder tote or as an over shoulder sling (it's easy to switch between the two), and I have received compliments on it every day I wear it! Under that front flap, you can't see it in the pictures, but there are pockets to sort all of your things - pens, make-up, art supplies, etc. - including a large pocket where you can plop your wallet or the odd necessity. And I have had no problems with the magnetic closure flapping open, even on the subway. Inside, there is a mesh slot to keep either your water bottle or computer cords, and plenty of room for notebooks, novels, or whatever else you need. On the outside are two inconspicuous slots on either side of the bag where I keep a pen, small moleskin notebook, hand sanitizer, and subway card. If you get this bag, you won't regret it!

Reviewer:Tom M from Southern California

Overall Rating:

Very nice backpack. Well built. A 15" MacBook Pro just barely fits (the long end) inside the laptop pouch. I put my folders and unbendy stuff in there too. Neat design, but one drawback is that the main cargo space only unzips 2/3 of the sides. Not too much a problem but you kind of need to stuff things into the smaller mouth than other backpacks will take. The squishy pad at the base of the laptop section doesn't really catch a thin laptop. It's a bit floppy and ends up on one side or the other instead of fully underneath the edge of the laptop. All of these are just nits. It works great as is.

This bag ROCKS! It has the function and versitility to go anywhere and perform beyond expectations. The shoulder strap adjusts, so it can go completely over your shoulder or shorten it up for a clutch type thing. The pockets and mesh holder inside keep you organized and keep your stuff from being a cluster of mayhem that may be difficult to find. It is a great all round bag. Highly recommend it.
