Carrier Brief Messenger Bag

Took a while to get this bag since they had to manufacture it. That is understandable and the quality is amazing. I have gotten many compliments. It’s very well built and looks great. I was worried about the size but I can fit all my school supplies and a 1000l water bottle. Would buy again.

I've had this bag for a little over a year now and it's holding up pretty well. It came in fairly dark waxy but that was expected from a waxed canvas bag, however the color does lighten up with wear and looks quite nice. The leather is top notch and has a nice luster when polished (https://imgur.com/a/og57ACm); I will say that the leather shoulder pad did cause some discomfort when new but after a week of breaking in it's really comfortable and helps distribute the weight of the bag.

As far as construction, I don't have any real complains..although there does seem to be a hole emerging from where the canvas strap is attached to the side of the bag (https://imgur.com/AWa7KCz); I'm not sure if this is due to the quality of construction or just regular wear and tear since I don't really beat this bag up or use up it's full capacity too much to expect something like this--I just use for school and don't carry any textbooks.


I do wish this bag had a slip/exterior pocket on the back to access stuff a bit easier but I can't fault that on Frost River, it's just something I wish I had known I wanted when I purchased this bag.

Overall this bag is a great value for the price and love how it's aging and holding up (with exception to that small hole emerging). I'd definitely recommend this to someone looking for a waxed canvas bag.

I have had this bag for a few months now and I love it! I use it as my everyday carry and has exceeded my expectations. The bag holds my laptop along with all of the other items I need with me daily with ease. I have ordered a few other Frost River products since I received this bag and have not been disappointed. I expect to use and abuse this items for years to come. I would have to say that Frost River's biggest competitor in this market would be themselves due to the quality of products they sell. I do not plan on needing new bags for awhile. Keep up the good work!

I received this bag from my wife for Father's Day about two years ago. Since I am a stay at home parent it is my "manly" diaper bag and gets used for a day bag/carry on any time I travel. Once my kid is a bit older I plan to use it as my day bag and on my motorcycle thanks to the waist belt.
It has a nice assortment of pockets inside. The larger internal pockets hold a small Nalgene perfectly. Having the zippered pocket is nice for important items I don't access often or documents. The front pocket is my snack pocket, but has plenty of space.
The fabric just continues to look better with use. It has held up to daily use and abuse for the last two years and shows little wear. It's nice that the bag is highly water resistant.
The waist belt was a little long when I purchased the bag, but a quick stop into the store and they shortened it for me on the spot!
I am quite pleased with the look, quality, and functionality of this bag and cannot wait to watch it age (and hand it down to my son eventually).
