Customer Reviews Timbuk2 Command Messenger Bag - Large

Have a large laptop and had difficulty finding case till noe

I use the bag daily for work. It has great compartments that allow me to find things quickly. It is light and comfortable so it never becomes a burden. Style and construction are top notch. My only minor desire is that it had a place to carabiner to secure keys.

I use this bag everyday to carry my laptop and iPad to work and to meet clients. It is professional looking and holds all of the necessary items I need for meetings.This is my 3rd Timbuk2 messenger bag and this one does not have as many pockets for small items as my other bags. Overall, I love it!

I bought the smallest version of the Command. I love this bag. The fact you can just throw it around your side when sitting down on the bus or train gives it a plus-1 over any backpack. Less space than a backpack though, if I could change anything I'd really like if it came with more spots for stationery, perhaps one leak proof pen pocket would be awesome. Other than that, it is fairly water resistant, has a high level of soft protection for my ultrabook, and carries as many as 3 or 4 large textbooks at a time. Not that you'd want to. scores 5 out of 5 for me

I primarily use the bag for work with my Macbook air (13"). Easy fit in the small bag and i especially like the outer zip compartment for the laptop - very convenient not having to open the flap. Very durable, very well designed and offers good capacity without bulk. This is NOT a backpack that functions as luggage for your clothes, etc. It's great for work necessities and more. I only wish it had a closable space big enough for a file folder, the one it has works, but is small and won't velcro shut. The strap is very comfortable, though the plastic strap adjuster should be metal, not plastic - seems cheap. All in all though, highly recommended.

I'm a pharmaceutical rep and I use it everyday. It's large enough to hold everything I need and room for more.

Perfect fit for 15" mcabook pro. I bike commute and this bag is surprisingly compact and lightweight yet holds everything I need and has lots of room for the occasional extra thing to fit.

I'm really glad I bought this bag. I looked at the cargo space abd how manh compartments as my main criteria. But as more usage goes by, I'm appreciating more and more of the clip hooks it has on it. I was skeptical at first whether or not it'll last as long, but it's well made and very convenient for me. I don't have to keep adjusting it to close my bag like I do with straps. Overall, a must have if you have a 15" or more larger laptop and needed the room.

Great looking bag! Great present, husband love it!

This is my third Timbuk2 bag, and they have always served me well. My only disappointment is that this color isn't offered in large. My MacBook Pro fits fine, but I have to use another bag for my 17" laptop.

This bag looks great but it's actually quite large on the outside and quite rigid so it doesn't sit very comfortably on your back. Also it has so many zips that it is quite heavy, but you cannot stuff much into it, so you wind up with a large bag that is small on the inside and it's a bit disappointing. All in all, seems over designed to the point of losing some utility.

This is my everyday bag.

I have been researching messenger bags for some time. I saw this bag at a local retail store. I was sold when I got to feel it see it in person. I find it light enough not to become a hinderance. It seems durable but have only had it for a few weeks. I use it almost daily and like it more. This is good choice for most consumers.

Strap becomes loose too easily Missing the red keychain hook Missing the smaller zipped pockets on my old bag

I am using the TSA Size L for my daily way to work. I Need space for my Notebook, Food and Drinks and mobile stuff. It's a perfect way to pack all this things easily .!

If you're looking for a good Laptop Messenger bag, look no further. Timbuk2 did a great job with this bag by using high quality materials as well as including useful pockets for storing your computer, accessories, and more. I think one of my most favorite features of the bag is the fact that it utilizes aluminum hooks rather than the nylon clips. I notices these will last in colder weather as those nylon clips tend to snap as they get brittle from the cold.

I have owned this bag for over a year now and have used it every day for work. It is the best bag I have owned to date! I am mainly using it as an everyday bag for the office as well as business trips. First off there is no wear on the bag at all. It honestly looks like I just purchased it. My favorite feature and the main reason I purchased the bag was the quick access hooks on the front of the bag. I have actually never used the Velcro on the bag and only use the hooks and they work great! I have never had anything spill out of the bag and they are really easy to access. My second favorite feature(s) on this bag are all of the quick access pockets. It is great to not have to open and sort through all of the bag to find my ID badge or chargers and the back pocket for my laptop is a must have for me from now on. I really do not have anything bad to say about this bag. The quality is excellent and all of the designed features are actually functional and get used on a daily basis. Best bag I have owned!

I use this to carry my 13" lightweight work laptop. I was looking for a bag that wasn't too bulky, was stylish, and was easy to travel with. This hit all those marks and then some. I love all the "hidden"easy access compartments for my wallet phone and other little things I tend to throw in there. In addition to the laptop I carry my iPad mini, all my charging cords and a notebook and it's still lightweight and compact. Best bag I have ever owned, I love everything about this bag.

This is my new work bag and I love it!

I use the bag daily and very happy having it bought

Fits everything I need to carry. Easy to find what you want. Gets lots of compliments.

Used daily for work and travel via all means of transport. Overall a great design. Improvements for me would be as follows: - More space in the main compartment. It is slightly thinner from back to front, from the classic messenger so difficult when I really want to fill the bag with bulkier items. - The inner compartments are now on the back wall, which I partially like. Problem arises if you try to put anything flat (like a magazine, or book). Since there is not a flat surface for the book to sit against, it gets bent out of shape. Work around is to put the book with your computer, but a large book makes it difficult to fit. Maybe some type of inner wall like the old messenger with a space for laptops had. So a back wall with compartments, an inner stiff material wall/divider, space for storage,then pockets on the inner and outer part of the front wall. -Another pocket on the other side of the flap, and another small pocket on the front outside of the flap between the clasps. -the older style luggage slip on the back, that could be used as a kind of pocket, would be preferable, but new one is functional for what it's intended purpose. - bag doesn't lay flat on its base, it flops forward. An easy design fix. -the new flap clasps are ok, but I do miss the backpack style clips, and the ability to loosen the straps and then lock and cinch down the straps after stuffing the bag. I understand the want for a cleaner look, but maybe use some innovation like the shoulder strap, just smaller. Other than that, the bag is really amazing. Worth every penny!

It is large (medium size) has tons of room. I use it at work.

I use my bag for for business and personal. Fits all I need for work. Very comfortable and practical when I'm on da bike. Get loads of compliments and who doesn't like a cpmpliment now and again.

I use this bag to commute to work. I like all the extra pockets- like the one in the flap and on the front sides. It fits everything I need but there are not enough organization pockets inside. I would like some elastic pockets on the inside. I haven't found a good place to store my keys- there is no closure to the small square pocket in the front so my keys keep falling out.
