## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it smell proof?**
A: I couldn't say from personal experience but given that the top is rolled over several times, pretty much making it water and air proof, I would say yes, it's about as smell proof as such a bag can be.

**Q: Does this bag have an air release valve or a way of venting air when traveling in a non-pressurized cabin during air travel (i.e. Helicopter flights)?**
A: Sorry, no valve. All zippers are waterproof type. the main compartment has 3 padded interior sleeves for laptops and documents. The main compartment is roll top. The bag is the best I have found. Not even a pelican hard case has a release valve at 250 bucks. If you need a valve... As far as I have found... You need to stick with a dry bag or a mil spec grade special ops backpack.

**Q: What are the dimensions of the larger XL bag? 17.5" by what?**
A: Hello,

The specifications for the XL BriefSåk (17.5") are:

-Weight: 3.35 lbs
-Exterior Measurements: 13.5” tall, 19” wide, 4.75" deep.
-Interior Main Compartment Measurements Without Organizer: 13” tall, 18.75” wide, 4.5” deep.
-Organizer Measurements: 13” tall, 18.5” wide, 4.25” deep.
-Measurements exterior splash-proof pockets: Inside front 9” tall, 15.25” wide.  Outside flap front 10” tall, 18.5” wide. Back 9” tall, 16.75” wide. All exterior pockets have 13.5" zipper openings.

I hope this information was helpful.

Kind regards,

**Q: Will the regular size fit a laptop with rectangular dimensions of 15" x 10" x 1.5"?**
A: I wouldn't try... it may fit in an otherwise empty bag, but in a regular size bag with other stuff in it (so a bag that you're actually using for its intended purpose), anything bigger than a 13" laptop (which is what I have) would be a real tight squeeze.

    Solid bag - not perfect, but very good, and lasts well
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2017*

UPDATE: Everything I wrote in the original review (where I gave 4 stars) is true. I'm updating to 5 stars because this bag held up very well for 5 years, and now that I'm finally looking to replace it (for style more than functional reasons) I'm happier than ever with the purchase.ORIGINAL REVIEW:This is a good bag for commuting to work - I usually bike 6-10 miles a day with it, and it's comfortable and solidly built.That being said, there are a number of small negatives that (even together) are not necessarily make-or-break. The zipper on the back pocket (the one that rests against your back) is oriented to be on the right side of the body when closed, which is the opposite of where it should be for the typical person who wears the bag on their left shoulder (because of this, the closed zipper is a pressure point for the wearer). The clips to close the bag are a little high up, meaning that it's hard to clip it tightly closed with the recommended triple-roll-down. The handle doesn't always stay centered which can make the bag awkward to carry as a briefcase. The bag squeaks a bit as you walk - though this is probably inevitable with its rubberized construction. Finally - and this has been brought up before - the bag is very shallow (~3 inches, can maybe stuff it to 4 in the center), so it doesn't fit as much as similar bags on the market.All this being said, the bag is definitely worth buying for most people. There's no other messenger bag of a similar price point that promises complete waterproofing (that I could find). Also, the light weight is a huge plus. I may have dedicated a lot of this review to nitpicking this bag's flaws, but I'm definitely happy that I made this purchase and plan on using this bag for a long time.As a final note, I have not tested this bag in heavy rain yet (though from the look of it it should be totally waterproof). I have also owned it for less than a month, and will update this review if it does not prove as durable as the manufacturer claims.

    Well designed and thought-out, water proof, rugged messenger bag
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2017*

This is precisely what I was looking for. Very rugged design, guaranteed waterproof in regular use. Thick rubber, not likely to tear or wear. Great versatility and flexibility. I am always worried about water coming into the bag because the front flap or the zipper doesn't seal. Can't happen in this bag: The center bag is actually quite high, so once you put you items in, you roll it down can lock it down with side straps for extra security. Definitely water proof. Easy to carry, easy to adjust. The front straps have a good reach, so if your item is a tad bulky, no problem. If you are in the market for a messenger bag that will not let you down, this is it. Just in case you wonder, like I did: There is a webbed strap on the back of the bag, it serves to slide it over a suitcase handle so you don't have to worry about it falling of. As I said, very well designed! Highly recommend it.

    A roomy, water waterproof bag for those who walk in the rain
  

*by G***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2019*

I carry lots of paper around in a rainy climate, and this bag has been a lifesaver when walking around. There are two things to think about with this bag, though. First, it requires extra steps to open and close—more than a simple zip/unzip. Second, it smells like a rubber boat—so someone with chemical sensitivity might need to look elsewhere.
