Port Authority BG306 Computer Messenger

Description of Port Authority BG306 / #BG306

A messenger bag is great until you need your laptop and have to undo the buckles, lift the flap and dig past everything else to get to it. This one skips all that. There's a separate entry on the back just for your laptop and tablet, so you can grab them without opening the whole bag. That section is padded to keep your electronics safe, and it fits most 15" laptops.

The main pocket opens from two sides, which comes in handy when you're reaching for something on the go. There's a stretchy mesh pocket on one side for a water bottle or coffee, and a self-fabric pocket on the other for your phone or keys. The flap closes with two adjustable buckles and has a big zippered pocket on the front, which is a good spot for a logo if you're ordering for a team.

It's made from tough ballistic polyester, so it holds up to daily commutes without looking beat up after a month. Wear it over your shoulder with the padded strap, or unclip the strap and carry it by the handle when you want it to look more like a briefcase.
