Excellent Laptop Bag

Got this bag to use for my laptop & it served me well for years. I ended up replacing it with the Pilot bag for extra space when traveling. Friend of mine uses it for her purse now & kinda get pangs of jealousy now when I see her with it!

Highest quality and workmanship!

I have been searching for a messenger bag for a while and was visiting family in Duluth over the holidays and we happened to stop in the store. I looked at many things while there and could have spent hours longer if we had the time. The messenger bag was something I looked at, put down, went back and looked again and even a third time before we left, without it. We went to lunch 30 minutes away and afterwards, drove back so I could buy it! I am impressed by the craftmanship, the mission of the company and the high quality of the bag. Next time I am back in Duluth, I will be stopping in again!

Premium Messenger Bag

Very well made, as expected. FYI a 15" macbook pro will just fit in the padded pocket, a thicker 15" probably wouldn't fit and any larger screen definitely won't. I went with the black because I already had a field tan backpack from frost river. I think I prefer the field tan but they are both very nice.

Another great bag from Frost River, just as I expected. And reasonably priced as well.
