Did not receive sample in exchange for review! *by on Reviewed in the United States January 6, 2017* I actually bought this thing. Personally, I'm sick of seeing that disclaimer. If you are too, you can trust me, at least on this.This bag is far roomier than the complaints about size would indicate. It's a tiny backpack, yes, but it's well designed and can fit more than you'd think. I am taking it with me to London and Paris next week and was thrilled to find that I could comfortably fit the following items:- DSLR Camera pack insert (by i-graphy, available on Amazon)- My Sony a6000 equipped with 35mm lens (into the insert)- Sony 55-210 lens with hood (into the insert)- a small umbrella (folded is less than 7", and I fit it in the side pocket that looks like it's best for a phone- Rolled up marmot rain jacket, Medium- One pocket-size map of London- One pocket-size map of Paris- Pocket-sized french phrasebook- One pair reading glassesIt all fits comfortably but yeah, you'd be hard pressed to jam anything else in there without it looking crazy bulky. As it is now, it is full, but doesn't look like I'm walking around with the seams busting. I do wish my 11" tablet would fit as well, but while it could if I took out the camera, they can't both fit. If you had a smaller tablet and left out any of the other things, you could make it work.It also sits well on my back and shoulders. I'm a 5'10 man of average-to-athletic build and this bag does not look tiny on me. It's well built, stylish but low-key, and a good, comfortable design that works for everyday carry, I very much recommend this bag.Nobody gave me a darn thing for this review. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Bag, but get the Right Size *by on Reviewed in the United States July 7, 2019* Well-made packs. Solid construction, sharp looking, with plenty of pockets.The primary reason I purchased this was to tote Dungeons and Dragons items at gaming events. Originally went with the “medium” size. This is great for the paperless, tablet using player. There is sufficient room for a few game books, a small notebook, a 10” tablet, dice, a few figures, and such.I had hoped to also carry a small plastic report cover big enough to carry a dozen 8.5” x 11” sheets of paper. However, because of the way the top tappers when you zip it closed, it couldn’t do it. Even a manila envelope for that size paper gets crushed at the top.Returning the “medium” was hassle free and I bought the “large”.The “large” is perfect for me. Still pretty small compared to most messenger bags or backpacks. Roughly only an inch bigger in each direction than the “medium”. But that is big enough to add a small binder to carry my D&D papers and even my 13” laptop if I want. This is in addition to the items the other one held.Only caveat is the water bottle holder on the “large”. Way too narrow. Maybe a super-slim energy drink can might fit, but not a standard bottled water. Of course, the “medium” doesn’t even have one, so not a deal breaker. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Quality Bag! Very Stylish! *by on Reviewed in the United States May 31, 2018* This bag is very sturdy and appears to be very high quality. I bought the medium size and it fits my 11.6 in laptop easily as well as the charger, a book, and all my day-to-day essentials. This bag has many compartments and has zippers for security as well, and carries a lot more than you would think given its size. It is also extremely comfortable to carry ans you are able to feel “free” and unrestricted. Not to mention the bag is aesthetically very nice, suitable for both men and women and offers a modern hipster feel. Overall, this is a really great bag for people wanting something small, compact and stylish. I was not compensated for my review this is my honest opinion. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/21546579-retro-canvas-messenger-bag-unisex-crossbody-shoulder-sling-bag-travel](https://www.desertcart.us/products/21546579-retro-canvas-messenger-bag-unisex-crossbody-shoulder-sling-bag-travel) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
