Those that have read my previous bag posts will realize that my main love of bags centres around messenger style bags. That was until I started bike riding. While a messenger is fine for short-haul commutes, for me they’re not stable or ergonomic enough for much longer rides. As my fitness increases I find myself […]

Although I carry gear, I don’t carry a typical gear bag. I don’t go to an office, so I don’t need a bag big enough to hold a laptop and other job necessities. I just need a bag big enough to carry what I’ll need while I’m out. I have some bags big enough to

The Colonel Littleton No. 37 Satchel in American buffalo is a beautiful bag bringing Old World quality, artistry, and charm to modern times. As the title states, this eye-catching bag is made from buffalo leather instead of the more classic cowhide. The combination of both design and rugged, marbled leather makes the No.37 Satchel unique to

The duffel bag has been done and re-done since it became a staple of military luggage—and later gym bags—forever ago. Crowdfunded Bomber Barrel was designed to improve on the classic.

The Phorce Pro is a briefcase that converts into a backpack or messenger bag. That in itself is not unique; we’ve seen numerous bags that have this ability to convert from one form to another. What sets the Phorce Pro apart from those bags is that it has a built in rechargeable 26,000 mAH lithium-ion

I’m getting ready to go on a vacation / road trip and you know what that means when you’re a gadgeteer… It means it’s time to figure out what gear to bring on the trip. Which computer to bring, tablet, notebooks, cameras, and of course, which bag to carry it all in. I already have

WaterField is one of my favorite companies. I carry their Finn wallet everyday and use their zippered pouches and bags all the time. They make the stuff I’d make for myself if I was a maker. I love the look of their new Outback Solo. It’s sized perfectly for the just announced Apple iPad Air.

Back in 2010, I reviewed my first Tom Bihn Ristretto for iPad bag. It was fantastic. I liked it because you could carry your tablet computing device and a handful of other things, without a bulky bag. I expected the Ristretto for iPad to last a long time. I certainly didn’t expect what happened next. We’ll
