Messenger or backpack for the commute

A messenger is the bag you open while wearing it. Swing it forward, lift the flap, take out what you need: on a crowded train that is the difference between reaching your laptop and not. A backpack carries more weight comfortably, a messenger gets at its contents faster.

The closure decides how it behaves. A flap with a buckle or a magnet opens with one hand and looks the part; a full zip closes on everything, which is what you want on a bike or in a crowd.

Set the strap so the bag sits at the top of the hip. Worn lower it swings when you walk and rides forward when you sit down.
