## Description

The Classic Military Messenger Bag is a durable canvas bag by Rapid Dominance. The front flap is held closed by hook and loop in two locations. There are a total of 7 pockets: 2 Front zippered pockets, 2 Side pockets with button closure, Main compartment, inside zippered pocket and outside back pocket. The 2 pockets on the front are great for carrying items such as keys, flashlight, MP3 players, etc. On each side of the bag is a pocket that is great for carrying bottled water, an umbrella, or any other item that you need quick access to. The main compartment is very roomy and lined with polyester for added durability. Integrated into the polyester lining is a zippered pocket the pocket is great for storing valuable items, such as a passport, keys, money, etc. Along the backside of the bag is a pocket which is held closed by hook and loop, this pocket is great for any item that you may need quick access to. The strap is fully adjustable and the 2" width makes the bag comfortable to carry. Antique brass details are used on the strap, which not only looks good, but also adds to the durability of the bag.

Review: Great bag at a good price - Seems like a really nice bag so far. The heavy canvas construction is confidence-inspiring and hasn't immediately shown distress or wear, although only time will tell if it holds up. Zippers are similarly beefy, but the square loops of the zipper pulls tend to bind, making them slightly awkward to use. Overall it seems very well built. All hardware is an 'aged' brass that's pretty attractive, although I might have preferred all-black components if available. The front pockets are pretty roomy with nice gusseting, and the side bottle pockets are surprisingly big. A 16oz can will disappear into them. The main pocket is zippered, with a single smaller zippered interior pocket inside the back. The lining of the main pocket is nice and soft, and it's quite roomy. It holds plenty of big books without issue, and could fit a couple changes of clothes and make a decent overnight or light travel bag. I feel like it could do with more interior pockets, maybe an 'organizer' section, but there's plenty of space to carry a separate organizer inside that fits your needs. There's also a fairly large pocket on the back with a small Velcro closure that's easier to access than the multitude of zippered ones, but it's less roomy due to being flat and doesn't seem as secure. Overall it's very versatile, could do anything from range bag to travel bag, and it's a very solid pick if you're after a messenger-style bag. Great bang for the buck.
Review: LOVE THIS BAG - EXCEPT FOR THE ZIPPERS - I was looking for a new bag to carry my art/urban sketching supplies. I originally purchased the Rothco Ammo bag but outgrew this and was looking for something bigger but still similar in style. This bag fit the bill. It also is lined (which gives it some structure) and has great pockets! Large and roomy, one on the back to carry an ipad or small laptop, two big pockets in the front and two pockets for water bottles on either side of the bag. The Ammo bag I had, was not lined, it was only one layer and I had to cut a cardboard strip to give it some structure on the bottom. It had 2 small pockets in front but no other pockets. This bag is very soft, cotton canvas but sturdy. The bag was put together and sewn well and I can see it will last a long time. The straps are also comfortable to wear on the shoulder or cross-body, they are made of cotton instead of nylon. My only gripe are the zippers. Both outside pockets in front do not zip close and I had a little trouble with the large zipper in the main compartment too. I was able to get the large compartment to zip properly in the end. Unfortunately, the two outside pockets are another story. It's unfortunate that where they chose to place/sew the zippers on these pockets, they cut the end where the zipper stops. This may be one factor the zipper can't grip the two strips of teeth and get them to join. The 2nd factor could be a loose slider. I tried clamping the slider as it might have widened or perhaps it was wide to begin with. Still no success in getting those zippers to close. It might have been better to just sew flaps on the top and secure with velcro to keep the pocket closed. I love the size and the quality of this bag so much, I am going to keep it anyway.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the bag a softback or hardback? I'm looking for a bag that will stand up on it's own without collasping immediately.**
A: It's a softback. The entire bag is made of a canvas fabric. It's an excellent bag, but it will not stand up on its own.

**Q: Would this bag fit a laptop with these dimensions? 15.20 x 10.20 x 1.40 inches**
A: yes it'll fit a laptop that size, but the zipper might not close. that's almost exactly the same size as the laptop I carry  in it now

**Q: What are the dimentions of the bag**
A: Overall dimensions: Approx. 19"W x 14.5"H x 7" DMain Compartment: 15" W x 11" H x 5" DFront pocket: 7.5"W X 8.5" H x flat D (zipper opening: 5.5")Inside zippered pocket: 8"W x 7.5" H x flat DSide Pockets: 6"W x 8.5" H x 1.5" DBack outside pocket: 15"W x 8"H x flat DSource: Rapid Dominance website

**Q: how does this handle rain? will it easily soak through if you get caught out there during a storm?**
A: I had this bag with me when I got caught in a downpour while visiting New Orleans and the outside did get soaked (as did I). However, the inside is lined with a plastic/nylon-type material, so nothing in the bag itself got wet. And the outside dried out fairly quickly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LOVE THIS BAG - EXCEPT FOR THE ZIPPERS

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Well-Constructed Bag ... if that's what you want
*by K***Y on June 20, 2017*

This is a great bag ... but it's actually sturdier than I wanted. I wanted a bag that was a little slouchy and this one is pretty structured. But I have to give it 5 stars because it is well-constructed, feels sturdy/durable, has zip pockets unlike many similar bags where I'd fear things would dump out, etc. In other words, it's actually a really great bag that I'm going to keep, but I'm also a little bummed that it's not quite what I wanted. It's a little heavy without anything in it because the canvas is so thick (good for durability). The strap is so long, I think a 6'5" dude could easily use it (but it is fully adjustable for me (5'7"). To answer a question that many others have (because it's hard to determine with just the measurements provided), my 15" x 10" laptop will fit in it width-wise (but barely because of the width of the zipper opening), the zipper won't close (height-wise) because obviously the bag interior isn't 10" high. So if you have a 15" x 10" laptop, your laptop will fit in but you won't be able to zip the bag closed. Okay though because you can flip the flap closed & it velcros, so all is not lost. I can't speak to any other dimensions of laptops, but since I think 15"x10" (closed laptop) is sort of big, many other people with smaller laptops could probably use this as a laptop bag. However, I was planning on using it as a substitute purse, so it's sort of big for that. I'm a medium-sized person, and it sort of overwhelms my body as a purse (like when you see a little 5-year old wearing a backpack on their first-day to kindergarten & it takes up half of their height). Okay not that extreme, but bigger than I was looking for. But again, it's really a well-constructed bag, so I'm not returning it. I'm sure I'll use it in some capacity ... just not the one I was planning on.
