p.1 #1 · Timbuk2 Laptop Messenger Review

It is a really huge writeup, so I'll spare you the read of you like.

Net: It is a great bag considering the number of things it is being asked to do well. It holds a lot of gear and is comfortable. A little on the pricey side, but it can be custom built! The Snoop insert functions well, but they missed a chance to take it up a notch and include some pockets for memory cards, etc.

No, I'd never carry every bit of that, but it is nice to know I can.

Cool review, I dig your choice on bag colors. I wish the timbuk2 bags would hold a 1D sized body, I've got 3-4 messengers downstairs I could be using

I couldn't swear to it since I don't have a grip for the D90, but it could work with their largest one (which is the Medium) - I'm not bursting out of the Snoop itself.

Dang - that is a stinkin' good deal - that is almost what they charge just for the insert!

But you have one-of-a-kind. I was tempted to customize but after seeing what my choices would had cost in comparison, I said "screw my fashion sense".
