INDIANA JONES IN THE CITY LOOK! I have to admit I had to really give ordering this bag a LOT of thought. After all...$200 + S&H for a mostly canvas bag---with some buffalo leather trim....Hmmm. To order or not to order? However, as soon as soon as I received it, I absolutely knew I had made the right choice! This bag far exceeds all my expectations and is very, very well-made. I think this bag may even outlast me! Not to mention---it looks very cool. The on-line description left me with a few questions as far as the inside pockets/pouches. There are lots of pockets, but not too many, and all are well-thought-out, as far as accessibility, placement and SECURITY. This is NOT an ordinary, attache-type bag where any stranger, or passerby, can easily slide in their hand and steal any of its contents. In fact, there is a long, zippered, inside flap that runs the entire length of the bag which completely seals off ALL inside contents. As far as the laptop pouch, I don't usually carry my laptop with me but if I do, the laptop pouch is well-padded and will hold my 15.4" laptop perfectly. NOTE: If you have a larger laptop than 15.4", it will fit inside the bag but NOT inside the padded, laptop pouch itself. Also, I am, IN NO WAY and never have been, a "monogram type guy"---not in the least! However, at the last minute, I decided to go for it on this bag. I selected the #1 MONOGRAM style. The monogram they did looks great---very professional, classy and not overly large. The monogram color is exactly the same color as the buffalo leather and it is placed on the big, outside pouch---just below the large, triangular, leather flap. To me, that area of the bag looked kind of bare and needed something to "jazz-it-up" a little anyway. The monogram is very subtle and very tastefully done. WOW, I'm really glad I did it. It gives the bag an extra nice, finished look. BOTTOM LINE: It's a great, well-made bag that looks VERY COOL! It's kind of pricey, but worth it! (Do the monogram--it really MAKES the bag---and makes it YOURS!) So cool.
