more shopping
Help me choose a new messenger bag (it's my birthday present so i have full reign)
I'm having trouble choosing as if you know me my bag is my life...i always have it and i walk EVERYwhere, with my laptop, notebook, book, ipod extra clothing.... (my current one is dying)
1. i was thinking timbuk2 i like choosing all the colors, the size aspect, and the padded laptop compartment ... plus it is water proof and seems like it wouldnt hurt my shoulders
cons- it doesnt have external compartments for fast cellphone/wallet/ipod reach and might be too bulky for my small frame
- it is twice the price of others
- everyone has them, they are pseudo yuppie hipster and not in the good way
2. Manhattan bag A- I like the look, that it doesnt scream LAPTOP (i dont live in the best neighborhood) and love all the pockets...simple is good (hipster in the good way) and i could bring it to internships (the timbuk2 might be too flashy) is way cheaper and much less bulky. It also would go better with my coat/clothes
cons- not originally made for laptops, but mine should fit...esp. great if fits in that outer pocket
- i wanted the timbuk2 earlier, manhattans are also ubiquitous
3. other manhattan bags - made for laptops, has pockets
cons- maybe too boring, plus it only comes in brown and black...not as fun
4. ANY other ideas, i dont want something too buisnessy or laptop case like

sooo many choices...
timbuk2 is now the "popular" thing to get now but it's completely worth it. You can drop kick it with the laptop still in it and nothing will happen.
Also they have an option for an external phone case that can be put onto the strap of the bag.
meh. i like the westside. coz i'm boring.
hope you find something you like.
so which one did you go for? that is if you've made your mind up.
i would go for the chromebags, they look the gayest...or is it just me.
