Originally built for hard-working messengers, the Classic Messenger Bag has been in production for 18 years. Known for its long-lasting, rugged durability and distinctive three-panel, multi-color design, the Classic Messenger has been adopted in cities around the world as the everyday, all-purpose carryall. It features a ballistic nylon exterior and waterproof liner, and remains the bag-of-choice for bicycle messengers, cycling enthusiasts and urban dwellers everywhere. Strap Pad not included.
Great bag for everyday or travel
I like to use this as my carry on bag when I travel because it has lots of pockets for multiple items. It is also nice because it is large enough to put magazines in it, plus other items. It is great as an everyday bag. I wish it just same with padding for the strap.
Very happy with the bag
Great size, durable, looks great. I use it for the gym and when I go to work via train. Waterproof inside so great for taking to the pool also.
Great bag!
Very satisfied with my new messenger bag. It has lots of pocket that fit my phone, ipod, wallet, bus pass & sunglasses, etc. Just love it!

Great bag for on the go
Great trave Bag, holds all my electronics, camera, phone, extra set of clothes, seperate pockets to store it all away including pockets on outside under the flap which are great for passport, wallet, and airline tickets for easy access.
better than a backpack
More than a fashion statement - a great way to haul your stuff whether by land, sea, or air - comfortable on a bike ride - but also works on a grocery shopping trip.
Great bag, but needs a strap
Great bag, nice organiser inside, sturdy material, BUT BUY THE PADDING FOR THE STRAP! I rode only about 10km and ended up with a nasty red mark across my chest because the strap material is quite coarse.
Classic Messenger Bag ( Medium )
Timbuk2 definitely makes a high quality product. The bag is extremely functional and very durable. You will absolutely get a lot of wear and tear out of this one. However, because of the size of the classic messenger and the potential to hold so many things, you would think that Timbuk2 would already include a shoulder strap with the bag, right? Go figure. I also wish that there was a size in between the medium and small. That said, overall, it's still a very functional bag.
Classic Messanger bag
I really like my messenger bag, it's great for class and hauling books all over campus. Although, one aspect I think would add a ton to the bag is a padded shoulder strap, my books are heavy therefore my shoulder would like a little lovin'..
A great, classic, good looking bag for almost any occasion.
This is a really great bag. I have the black one and so far I love it. It works for lugging around my stuff and stuff for my three kids, plus it works well as a work-type bag for job interviews and everyday trying-to-look-professional attempts. The only thing I wish it had that it doesn't (and this isn't a huge deal) is some kind of pad at the top of the shoulder strap so there would be a little extra comfort on your shoulder when you've got a heavy load. Otherwise, it's perfect!
