Customer Reviews Timbuk2 Classic Messenger - Extra Small

Great I love it

I love it. I am 5'4", 124 lbs. The size XS fits me perfectly as a travel bag. Size S is too bulky on me. I also own another one in the micro size for when I don't need to carry much. They are light, durable, nice looking. I probably will come back for other color.

Bought for my partner and he loves it.

We are using this product for international travel as a carry around bag. We used to have a very old Timbuk2 that finally wore out and decided to go with the updated version. We really like the upgrades that have been made, and the only thing we wish it had was an internal zipper compartment. Other than that, we may even buy a size small to travel with.

I was given one of these as a gift years ago (in an olive green and mustard), and when it started looking too scruffy, I finally broke down and ordered a new one in a nice cranberry red color. It is the BEST! Sturdy, lots of nooks but not so many that it's confusing, great structure but still pliable enough to fit into compact areas. It is casual and outdoorsy - perfect for bicycle commuting - yet versatile enough to look decent in professional settings. My only complaint is that the tip of the zipper on the outer pocket gets stuck in the velcro, and over time it frays and shreds. I was also unable to clean out the velcro after several years of use, so it just looked gross. But overall, this is my ideal messenger bag!

I use my new bag fro work, Mostly bringing my lunch and some drinks. I also take advantage of the pockets and compartments for gloves and hats and other cold weather stuff. It is a great size and expands for bigger items. I like the the adjustable straps and velcro closer!

I split time working from home and in-office each week so I needed something that could carry all my work essentials. I tried a variety of different messenger bags and every one fell short of what I needed until I came across Timbuk2. The bag was exactly what I needed and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to any of my friends or colleagues and I would definitely buy it again.

Great bag. Use it to fit school when I need a smallish bag that can still get he job done.

Great quality and fits everything I need for work in the office and out in the field.

This is a great messenger bag. My wife and I are about to leave for a three-week trip to Europe, to see Rome, Paris and London. This is the perfect bag to have with me during our trip I have never been disappointed with a product from this company.

good structure. holds 13"MBA with ease in addition to files/magazines in same space. water repellent. decent smaller pockets on the interior, though many of them are awkwardly shaped for every day cary items. for example, interior pockets will not hold a cell phone. only the outer pockets underneath the flap will hold your cell.

After a very simple return process I got it! Great messenger bag. Well built and roomy.

Awesome quality. Right fit for my iPad. Happy purchase

This bag is great! Has enough pockets for your to keep things organized and very easily accessible. Overall confortable and durable (so far). It rained the first time using it and held up well in keeping my stuff dry though not sure how it would fair over extended periods of time. Size was good for holding laptop/ iPad/ padfolio / book/ and water bottle. Overall a good buy.

Perfect size for me, well built, comfortable and overall nice messenger bag

I use it as a business bag up to 2 nights. Holds all the stuff I need even a pair of trainers.

This bag has worked extremely well for its recipient (was a gift). The water resistance has held up very well so far with light-to-moderate precipitation. The size of the bag was very accommodating of different storage needs, including multiple storage compartments. The cushioned section for the laptop has worked well for a 13-inch MacBook Pro (bag was medium which is intended for larger computers than this, but the spaciousness was not an issue). All black color scheme is a sleek and subdued aesthetic.

These bags are phenomenal. I commute primarily by bike, and the messenger bag can fit my tire repair kit, lock, schoolwork, and work clothing and gear without feeling overstuffed. High quality and super practical. Id give 6 stars if I could.

This bag is a perfect casual/travel handbag.

I switched to this as my primary work bag. It's volume belies it's small size. It looks good and appears sturdy. There are rather few pockets. So wires and similar things tend to just sit in the bottom of the bag. Like any messenger bag carrying it around for a long time does result in an aching shoulder.

I replaced a Timbuk2 bag with another. That should speak for itself. I got a size smaller (went from XL to L) and am adjusting to the new amount of space. All the pockets make it easy to organize my stuff, and help me manage my many transitions in a day, from the gym to the office to the house again. I am a little confused by a feature that is new to me - the straps that tighten below the bag that can help you shrink the interior space for a smaller load. I like this feature, yet when I have the straps tight, they are dangling. There is no obvious place to latch them and they fly around when bike riding and it's not convenient.

I wish it was a tiny bit bigger and the Velcro was quieter, but otherwise it's ideal. Does exactly what I want it to do and was a great theme park bag.

I operate equipment at work and this bag is the perfect size to keep with me. Keeps all my essentials organized and easily accessible and easy to move between pieces of equipment

I bought this to protect the iPad I was given for nursing school while it was in my back pack (I ride a motorcycle) as weeks went by I dumped the back pack and just take this little bag I wear it cross body on my bike and it has impressed me , build quality is top notch everything is very well thought out,every pocket ,every zipper ,buckle and flap . Got caught in a down pour and thought oh no the whole way home on my 60 mile commute I thought surely my ipad with all my books and homework on it was dead only to get home and realize the internal pouch is lined and water resistant my things survived nice and cozy and dry, having this bag is equal to having an assistant that's always watching out for you,as someone who goes through bags every few years traveling my future purchases will be with timbuk2 they make the stuff you've been looking for this whole time. I named mine Rowdy seemed wrong to not name him .

MASSIVE. So much room. Plenty of individual pockets for your pens/papers/laptop, and expandable enough for a thirty-rack. Shoulder pad and quick release strap helps a lot. I couldn't recommend this bag enough.
