Fantastic minimal bag
Sturdy, comfortable, fits a bunch of stuff (including a 13-inch computer - easily) and has a great minimal design.

Well built minimalist shoulder bag
I picked up the DJ bag so there would be room for LPs (I buy a lot of vinyl), and they do fit fine. However, I bought it more because it's like a messenger bag, but smaller. I never need to carry legal documents so this seemed like a good compromise. It is. It's ruggedly built, made of heavy cordura and seems stitched together well. It's good looking. The strap is heavy weight and wide, so it is both comfortable and secure. I'm a 6'1" guy and wear it like a sling, so the strap is plenty long.My only beef- and this is very minor- is I would like a organizer pocket for pens and electronics. It has a divider in the main compartment and a generous pocket on the front of the compartment- which is great, I put all of my little odds and ends in there. What would put this bag over the top is a pocket for a phone and an ipod, and a couple of slots for pens. Then I would be in heaven. But this bag is very close to heaven, so close I didn't feel the need to dock stars for the lack of an organizer. All in all I am very happy with this bag and will enjoy it for years to come, I'm sure.

Great travel bag
Durable, stylish travel bag. I purchased it for a trip to Italy and it didn't disappoint. I purchased the small shoulder strap separately which is absolutely necessary if you plan on carrying anything of weight.4 stars for the lack of any small pockets for pens, change, etc.

Simple durable messenger bag
The media could not be loaded. This is one of the many messenger bags offered by Manhattan Portage. I checked the description, and it says it's made to 'carry LPs while on the move'. That's why it's call DJ shoulder bag. Interesting. It's a good bag for non-DJs as well. This bag has more colour choices that all other Manhattan Portage bags.The medium DJ shoulder bag is big enough to hold a 13-inch laptop (with a thin case) plus a few A4-sized writing pads. A 14-inch laptop will be too big. The bag is not padded though. The shoulder strap is of good length and strong. The bag uses a small buckle to secure the front flap.This bag has only two pockets. One's on the front of the main compartment that goes all the way across and down. It's a big zip pocket that can fit in big flat items like a notebook. Inside the main compartment, there's the second pocket attached to the back, also going across and down all the way.The material used to construct the bag is Cordura nylon. It looks and feels very durable.The design of the bag is simple, nothing fanciful but it does its job. However, when compared to other messenger bags from Manhattan Portage, this one definitely feels over-priced.You may want to compare other messenger bags in similar form factor:- Manhattan Portage Cornell Messenger Bag- Manhattan Portage Medium Europa Messenger Bag(The high-res video and additional photos are available on my blog.

Vastly overpriced and under-made…
This thing is just marginally better than using a doubled-up grocery-store plastic bag, and far worse than using a $10 canvas tote (that’s large enough, of course). This one? It’s very thin and has not one bit of padding or protection of any kind. Not that you need it to be massively padded, but it’s so thin, you get more protection from those canvas totes I mentioned. That said, if this thing were priced around $20, it’d be a good buy. At $100, you’re much better off buying one of those $10 canvas totes and spending the rest of the $90 on records. Skip this one.

This is a fine small bag, but no padding or protection for things like camera or larger laptop
This is a great small bag. But I got it to carry camera, and because there is no padding on the sides, this does not work for my intended need. Will use it to carry papers.

Great minimal shoulder/messenger bag
This bag is nice and has great quality. I have been using it to carry my 14 inch dell e4300? (the heavy one with the biggest battery) for 3 years with no problem.It also has a zipper compartment where you can put items that you are afraid my fly out.Inside compartment has a slot for you to put a decent stack of paper.The strap, the quick release buckle the whole bag in general is still in great shape with no issues at all after 3 years of usage.I do have both the black and the grey... I like the black a lot more as the grey looks a tad shiny-ish.
