Editor's Notes

June 19, 2020:

Messenger bags come in a wide range of styles and materials. You can find these bags dedicated solely to carrying your camera, with lots of handy pockets for accessories, and you can find bags made just for large laptops. We focused on options made from canvas because canvas is durable and easy to clean while still retaining the stylish design of the bag.

The Leaper Retro has a crossbody design, and it has several pockets for your belongings, as well as a soft, inside lining to protect your device. The Gearonic Vintage Shoulder has leather straps securing the flap, reinforced corners, and it is big enough to hold your laptop, clothing, and more.

The Sheng Ts Multi-Function is a versatile selection that can be carried like a crossbody bag, a briefcase, and even like a backpack. It has a dedicated laptop compartment and several exterior pockets for smaller items. The Mobile Edge Mecme9 has a swiveling strap, so you can wear it on either side of your body for comfort, as well as elastic pen holders. It fits 16-inch laptops, too, making it a great choice for students.
