A messenger bag usually has a long shoulder strap and a flap. Many models are intended for documents or work essentials, but a laptop compartment and compatibility with a particular laptop size are not automatic. Check each model’s details.
What to check
Compare both carrying styles with your usual belongings. Adjust the straps and reduce unnecessary weight. Comfort depends on fit, load and your own preference.
The stated screen size is a guide. Compare your laptop’s outer dimensions, including any sleeve, with the laptop compartment. Contact us if you are unsure whether your model fits.

Leather care
Choose care suited to the finish. Do not use grease or smooth-leather cream on suede. Follow the care product’s instructions and test a hidden area first; treatment can change the colour or surface.
