William Rast Canvas Laptop Messenger

It is as nice looking as in the picture (I got the black version) and the quality seems good, especially for the price (I got mine at 34.99$), time will tell how it will endure daily use.

A couple of notes that might be useful for other buyers:

* the closure is by clips, the two buckles are "functional", in that they can open and close, but they have no real function besides aesthetics.

* the internal is divided only in the laptop part (which would be able to accommodate a laptop much thicker than my 15" MacBook pro) and the "main" compartment, which has only three small open pouches. No specific compartment is provided for power bricks, iPad, or pens (amazingly, the latter is what annoys me the most).

* there is none or very very little padding, therefore the laptop would better be in its own sleeve (as I said, there is space to spare anyway); on the flip side, the lack of padding or rigidity makes the bag considerably more spacious than other options of a similar external size (such as the Belkin messanger bag).

All in all, for the moment I am satisfied, will update if any problem will emerge.

I've found that this bag only works if over my right shoulder with the bag hanging on my left side. Otherwise the sliding shoulder pad won't slide far enough to be on top of my shoulder. There is a metal clasp thingy in the way.

Also, those aren't real fastening straps as pictured on the flap. They are held in place by little magnets and will not stay closed while in use! If you hold the bag by the handle on top the magnets WILL RELEASE and the flap will come up.

There's better bags out there folks.
