Manhattan Portage NY Bike Messenger Bag 

"Bought this bag in conjunction with the manhattan portage camera insert. Wanted a bag big enough to carry my DSLR and few lenses (typically carry body with 1 - 2 prime and 1 zoom) but also wanted a bag that a) doesn't look like camera bag and b) can fit other random stuff in it (food, jacket, umbrella, etc). For that works well. I also thought that in principle I should be able to wear it while riding my bike, but haven't tried that yet."

"Works great! Love this bag!"

"it's pretty good!"

"To be frankly, I would have imagined a bigger bag when I first received this bag. Or you could order a large size. However, I think it is definitely enough for the daily use. I put my 15-inch widescreen sony laptop and 2 books and notebook and swimming gear in it. And it still have capacity to load my cell-phone, wallet, tissue papers and etc. In one word, even the medium size has enough room for your daily carries. But, I would expect it to be more organized. Moreover, if you need to carry the bag for day long, I would suggest you to carry low density things. Because I don't think it is good for your shoulder. In sum, it is a great practical bag with great looking, especially when you ride bike to commute."

"Good"

"USAGE: I use it to bike into work. I usually carry my 15 laptop, lunch, books/papers, lunch, and U-lock. That gets me to about 50 percent of max capacity, though carrying more would start to make things a little heavy. PROS: The bag is well balanced, easy to carry and hold a ton of stuff -- the inside is cavernous. The center brief case handle is a nice bonus, as is the back pocket. Also, the bag looks awesome. And Manhattan Portage bags last forever. CONS: Im not in love with the dual tall zipper pockets. They're fine for holding the various connectors and chargers that I don't use that often, but it would be a bit of a pain if I needed to use those daily. A divider for the interior might be nice too, but it's not essential. OVERALL: This is a great all around messenger bag. It's not perfect, but it's better than most. You get top quality without paying an outrageous price, which makes it a great value overall. I would highly recommend this bag."

"Awsome bag... I got stuck in the rain with it today and it did its job and protected my $350 worth of school books. My only minor complaint would be that it is lacking small compartments."

"Overall, great bag."

"It's goood. I like it."

"Durable and affordable messenger bag. Styling may not be to everyone's liking, but this is a real workhorse of a bag."
