I bought this bag to carry all of my work essentials - an A5-sized journal, a letter-sized notebook, multiple pens, a 16 inch computer, and a few business cards. I was worried when I first bought the bag that it wouldn't be able to fit everything, but it fits everything I need and then some. I am able to include a can of Diet Coke, my laptop charger, some wireless earbuds, and a pair of gloves in a different pocket from the office essentials. There is still room to spare! The bag is comfortable to carry and the strap can easily fit across my chest to carry it like a cross-body. I like the built-in organization that comes from having three compartments, and I appreciate the snap to keep my laptop secure. The feet on the bottom add a special touch that makes me feel like the bag is secure. I like how the bag stands on its own - it makes it feel like a polished bag for an executive. All in all, I adore this bag. The construction quality feels nice, and I feel like it's going to be a workhorse for a long time. I'm glad I bought it.
