NOMATICMessenger Bag - Formal Laptop Computer Bag - Crossbody Shoulder Bag for Travel, School and Work Bag (Black)

After two trips I can say I absolutely love this bag. It has a compartment for everything and is so well thought out for a modern bag wheather on your shoulder or slipped on to your suitcase handle.The zippers are tight and high quality, and I was amazed how well it accommodated my gaggle of electronics, etc. I've carried a Tumi for years but I am a big convert to this bag. I love that it feels sleek and not frumpy.

Just got the Nomatic messenger for Black Friday. I read all the reviews and comments and felt obliged to comment that most of the complaints (which were already minor) have been addressed. The zippers work well. The glasses compartment now has a hard case. The water bottle compartment has a magnetic snap back system.Congrats Nomatic on listening to your customers! Your product is truly improved, therefore better than I expected and is, by far the best messenger bag I have ever bought.Incredibly I switched from the Thule messenger bag that is much larger (almost too large for daily use) and the Nomatic fits more items! I couldn’t believe it. Certainly this is due to the well thought out layout.New fan!

I really wish this bag would work. It has loads of great storage options and configurations. However, if you have a laptop in it, then the luggage handle passthrough cannot be used due to it being far too tight. So, for business travel, this bag has a fatal flaw. It also just needs to be slightly larger to fit modern 16" laptops.

PROS- Material- Construction- Zippers (stiff at first but I have other bags with these. They get easier)- Storage space- Versatility- DesignCONS- Top handle does not stick up enough to be useful. It's so low that your knuckles dig into the zippers and it crushes your fingers. Would have be better with some elastic so that it stretches out more- The shoulder strap mechanism that shortens and extends it just sticks and I have to fight with it. Not like what I saw in the video of it simply sliding up and down.- Laptop pocket is for up to 15" and they mean it. 15.9 is a complete no go.Why did I give it 5 stars? Because it's worth it! The CONS listed above don't impact that score. Sure the handle issue is real and should be addressed but I'm not reducing the score by 20% because of a handle that I will rarely use.The magnetic straps do twist around quite a bit (the nature of a free swinging strap mechanism). But they're magnetic! Bonus points for being awesome. If they twist up, I actually like popping them off and hearing them click back on.But here is the real deal. The review above me said it doesn't stand up and falls over. It's not a verified purchase so I'm not sure what that's about. The bag stands up! Laptop, no laptop, whatever! I toss it on the floor in the office and it's planted like a brick! It's voodoo (or maybe just some weird way I packed it).This isn't a simple bag. It's THE bag!

I was looking over several reviews on men's bags, laptop bags, etc. The price, it's a big NO. I finally decided to purchase it through Amazon and if I don't like it to return it.Let me tell you....this is the best men's bag you can own. I was so surprised with the quality and durability that it didn't cross my mind to return it due to its price.Even from the first day at work people they noticed that I've got a super nice new bag.Try it and you will remember my words!

I want to start by saying this bag is great. Everything they showed it can do is completely accurate. I love the added features I never thought about. For example the retractable key. I work at a job that uses a key fob to open the door. I just pull it out to open the door............and boom, I’m in. Wonderful product definitely waterproof. Only thing is they should decrease the cost by a lot. A normal $40 bag will last longer. DO NOT GET IT, save your money!!!!I rated it low, because durability is POOR! On the 30th day the magnet buckle for the arm strap popped off. The actual connection there is built poorly. I sent an email over a week ago to ask about assurances on that part not breaking again and no response. I spent a lot of money on this bag and it can only last 30 days is ridiculous. I then bought a new bag since I was still in the 30 day window. The next bag lasted 6 months before the zipper broke on it. If your looking for a bag that can handle normal everyday wear and tear this is not the bag for you. I hope this helps someone

Ordered this in advance of a 10-day business trip. Had high hopes after watching the many videos on their products.I love the strap and how it disconnects. Really neat. Material is very nice and appears sturdy and stain resistant. Zippers weren’t as free-movin (no one-handed operation), the reason I returned it was because it is just too small. Only enough room for laptop, a few pens, and about one 1” file folder. Add and iPad and water bottle and there was only about enough room for a pack of gum.The mobile phone pocket would be a nice feature for going through security if you usually keep your phone in your pocket. The magnetic water bottle pocket was a disappointment because it didn’t have great “snap back” into the closed position.Finally, the empty weight of the bag is about 4 pounds-awfully heavy for such a small bag.If you want a minimalist bag (but don’t care about weight) this is a nice looking, thoughtfully designed bag.

I friggin love this messenger bag! So durable and the compartments let you fit everything! Look no further than this bag!
