Altego Coated Canvas Cyan 15-Inch Laptop Messenger Bag - Black (36600)

I enjoy the look and feel of this bag with its unique clasps. but after less then a half year with it, the area where the strap attaches to the bag has a rip from regular use. Tried to contact Altego with no response, will be emailing them again. UPDATE: received email from company offering to replace the broken bag.

I purchased this bag to go with my new macbook pro 15.4" retina so that I could have a safe way of carrying it around campus without having to buy a bunch of extra protection items (hard cases, sleeves, skins, etc). First off, the quality of the bag is fantastic! I've had this bag for a few weeks now and it's carried everything from computers, groceries, textbooks, alcohol, and more without the slightest wear from it. The laptop section on the back of the bag (the part that is against your body when you wear it) is super soft and the zipper goes across the top and down one side. This is particularly helpful so that you don't scratch your computer on the zipper when you put it in/take it out. On the inside of the laptop pocket there is also a small velcro padded piece across the bottom to provide more padding for when you set your bag down. This is a brilliant idea that I think a lot of manufacturers tend to overlook. It is nice to have padding on the side and all, but when you set your bag down, the bottom of the bag is the part that gets the most impact. My macbook pro hasn't come in yet though (extremely limited supply), so until it does, I've been using my 15.4" toshiba satellite computer. Now this laptop is thicker than the macbook I intend to use this product with, but still, the size is the same. The only thing I'm not a fan of is how snug my laptop fits into the case in back. I have to take out the padding on the bottom and then the zippers are slightly bulging when I zip it up. My laptop won't fit if the padding on the bottom is left in there. I hope this turns out to be different for my macbook when it comes in. As for the front pockets, there is one giant open space that is big enough for about 2 textbooks and 2 spirals with an umbrella and water bottle on the sides. The iPad pocket is awesome because it fits my galaxy tab 10.1. There is a zippered section as well in the main area where you can fit in some loose papers if you have them. The pocket on the outside flap though is what I find extremely handy. I put my wallet, keys, chapstick, usb drives, extra lead for my pencils, and more in there for quick access. Overall, this is a fantastic product. The only reason I'm giving it a 4/5 instead of a 5/5 is because I would like to be able to fit my laptop in it without having to take out the padding on the bottom.

Edit: I have now received my macbook pro and the fit is unbelievable. I can put the padding on the bottom and everything fits perfectly. I even put a hard case on my computer and it's still not too tight to make me worry. I can't believe how good of a bag this is!

Really nice bag! Sturdy quality with a very clean style. It's very utilitarian friendly, too, with plenty of inside pockets. One is designated specifically for the iPad. There are two smaller interior pockets, and then three mesh pockets about medium size that can fit an array of items. A nice, cushy, padded pocket on the back for the 15" Macbook Pro (Retina) for easy access and maximum protection. There's even a removable velcro padding on the bottom of the case to give extra protection, or you can remove it if your laptop fits too snug. The price is really the biggest selling point, since the design is maxed on out quality without overcharging on price. There's weather-resistant canvas all over the bag so it won't soak in the rain, and the bottom is lined with weather-proofing material in case you set it down in water or something. Overall a really nice buy and I'm so happy I stumbled upon this gem!!

This bag was everything I needed. I originally wanted a leather bag but no leather bag had all the pockets I needed. This bag holds it all and looks good. !

The bag is built well. Sturdy, and the padding protects my 13" MacBook Pro really well. The shoulder strap is thick, easily adjustable, and well made. Feels similar to a lightweight seatbelt type fabric.

The inside of the bag holds my iPad, iPhone, several pads of paper, MacBook charger, and whatever I have to lug around for the day.

The zipper on the front pocket is the only reason I'm not giving 5 stars. It feels cheap, like it will fail easily. The teeth are very small, and the zipper part feels less sturdy than the rest if the material of the bag. It hasn't broken, but I'm afraid it will.

That's the only small issue I have. I've been using the bag daily for about a month, to hold all my business papers, MacBook, iPad, iPhone, etc. It's a stylish bag, and it keeps me organized. I've gotten several comments about it being a cool looking bag.
