Customer Reviews Timbuk2 Command Messenger - Large

The bag is built very well and has enough compartments to be organized but not too many pockets to loose track of where you put things. I use it for school and i walk a lot to classes and the bag is slightly uncomfortable at first but over time it got better. I got the bag in size small, but the size is enough to fit a 15 inch macbook pro. The bag is a little big if one is of smaller stature but it should fit perfectly for an average person.

Long-time timbuk2 owner and amazed how the products get better ever year. My last timbuk2 bag was branded with my company name and when I got a new job I wanted something stylish, compact and efficient for both my train commute and air travel. This bag fit the bill, everything's tight and has a space. I love the TSA fold-down compartment for getting through security and the strap is extremely comfortable. Would recommend this bag for anyone with a daily commute.

Daily use. Frequent Flyer. Laptops and Electronic Devices.

The clasp system is tight prior to frequent use but ensures security for the contents.

Great product.

Versatile bag for traveling and for everyday school use.

I bought this as a gift for my future son-in-law who just graduated with his Masters in teaching. He absolutely loves it!! He is a pretty big guy, 6'5", so I bought the large, and it looks like the perfect size. It's stylish as well as masculine. He will use it as a briefcase, and it will work perfectly for that purpose, plenty of room for books, papers, pens, lunch and computer. Plus extra room for extra stuff!

I'm delighted with the bag and the quality is very apparent once you get it in your hands! I was looking for something a bit different and this has filled a gap in computer bags market in the UK, where you either get to choose from the drab and generally lower quality bags, or something that might be more stylish, but is generally expensive and where your are disproportionately paying for the "label". It was a bit of a punt ordering the bag, but has proven worth while and I would both recommend the bag and I would order from Timbuk2 again.

Bought this bag on black friday after spending a lot of time looking at different models. Finally settled on this one and glad I did. This bag is more roomy that appears but even if you stuff it, the bag expands rather well to hold everything.

Beware that this messenger bag is not very wide but nice and slim for daily use for office or school.

Just received the gift. Won't be used until next week.

I love that bag.

Really useful details in this bag! Lots of small compartments, but most important: I can grab my laptop in one move where I needed to take it out of a sleeve in my previous bag. And still it is safe inside its compartment.

I am a school teacher, meaning I'm always carrying lots of pages, school supplies and such. This is my second Timbuk2 bag (the old one is still in great shape, I just needed a change) and I am so happy with it ! My new bag is spacious, comfy, lightweight (even with tons of stuff inside), very roomy. Each item has its own locations, This bag is full of surprises. I'll definitely continue using my Timbuk2 and continue getting them. Outstanding.

I take this bag with me everywhere I go. I can't find a bad thing to say about it

I use a medium sized bag everyday for work. I have about a 5 minute walk into work and this is the perfect size and weight for that commute. All of the little compartments fit everything I need, the main compartment holds my lunch box and a rolled up sweater, and if I need to go on a plane, the Velcro strap on the back is perfect for strapping to a rolling luggage bag. The strap mechanism is fairly easy to use and the padding on the strap is very comfortable. The laptop compartment is perfect for any computer up to the size of a 15" MacBook Pro. My only drawback to this is the water bottle pouch is on the smaller side. My 32oz Nalgene bottle fits but it's a tight squeeze to get it in there. I would recommend this bag for anyone, especially those who like easy access and portability. I don't travel on a plane often but this is perfect for me.

I love this bag. It holds a lot of things and has a lot of compartments for those things. Sometimes I wish I got the larger size bag as I tend to fill it with more than it can hold. It can get heavy when filled but still is much more comfortable than a back pack. I normally carry my MacBook Pro, iPad, Files, Office supplies, chargers, bluetooth speaker, and other personal items. I love the amount of pockets and the location and layout of the pockets. This is a very well thought out design for people on the go. Easy access to all pockets/compartments with out having to get into another one to get what you are looking for. I can access my computer and iPad from the outside very easily and quickly. One of the only, if not the only con, is the strap. I'm not sure if I like or dislike the quick release on the strap. either way. I love this bag and would recommend this to all personnel for school, career orientated, travel, etc. Enjoy!!

The command messenger is super intuitive. All the pockets are in the right places, lined with the right material, all of the zippers and openings are in the right places and the roller strap in the back is a lifesaver when travelling. Plenty of room, stylish and comfortable.

I use this daily between home and office. I love how easily my laptop comes in and out of the bag. The bag easily fits a large laptop but is not bulky and cumbersome. I'll buy more.

Use it everywhere. Work, leisure and has enough space for both work and gym.

Well done

Beautiful construction. A bit more structure than my last Timbuk2 bag - which I wanted. As a 5'2" woman, I wanted something light and smaller than my classic large bag, and a bag that wasn't black for once! This bag was all that and more. Fits my 15" Apple MacBook perfectly.

It's a great bag

I use the Command Messenger Bag everyday for work. It has more than ample room for all my needs, perfect for bringing my laptop as well as other daily "essentials". It's light weight, comfortable to carry with or without using the shoulder strap. It's appearance is more than stylish yet classic in design. The bag is more than durable and can with stand any punishment I could dish out. I highly recommend this Messenger Bag to anyone looking for a very hip, roomy and comfortable messenger bag.

Love the pass thru on the back and the zip feature for TSA. Plenty of compartments for business travel
