Perhaps my favorite,
well-engineered messenger bag

I’ve owned a LOT of messenger bags over the years, and I have to say that this one is pretty much the culmination of everything that I’ve wanted in a bag. Premium hardware and materials, weather-sealed zippers (even has zipper “garages”, roomy interior, lots of compartments and zippered sections. The luggage handle has enough padding when resting against the back (even with a 14” MacBook loaded up).

The top zippered section not only is soft-cloth lined, but there’s a built in separator so that you can have more than one item, say a phone and sunglasses, in the pocket and they will not touch.

My only complaint is that the original zipper pulls were really thin paracord and though I was going to upgrade them pretty much regardless, it would have been a nicer touch to use something with a bit more substance.
