The Timbuk2 Especial Stash is a comfortable, lightweight, and highly functional messenger bag. If you're looking for a highly water-resistant bag designed for biking with your electronics, then this is a great option for you. A waterproof laptop compartment means you can forge ahead with confidence that your gear is protected even when the skies open up. The brightly-colored interior makes it easy to find what you need, and the pockets are well-designed without being excessive. An ambidextrous strap and magnetic buckles, which can be operated one-handed, make the Stash user-friendly and efficient to carry. Smart features like an external water bottle pocket and plentiful accessory loops mean your essentials are never hard to access.
If you like to carry your bag on one shoulder while walking &#40;as opposed to cross-body&#41;, this may not be the best choice for you. The Stash is optimized for commuters that prefer a more traditional messenger design intended to hug the back snugly while zipping through town on a bike or a scooter. The tapered shape also isn't as conducive to sitting upright when set down on the ground. Because there's no velcro, you will have to commit to clipping the magnetic buckles every time to keep the front flap secure &#40;though you won't have to make a loud ripping sound every time you want to get inside&#41;. All of that aside, if you value durability and weather resistance in a bike-friendly design that provides some of the best protection for your electronics, then this is the bag for you.

Painless Reviews

 The horrible strap design and the way the bag forces you to wear it one way, imo defeats the purpose of a messenger bag - you want these types of bags to be versatile, to have that pick-up-strap-up-and-go functionality to them, however this bag doesn't provide that. All in all I'd say the bag is a good example of design over function.

 Bold but stealthy and sleek looking enough to not command too much attention. + front horizontal storage: neat little compartment that I found myself using a lot. Great for when you want to have quick access to something.  Neutral: +/- Magnetic closure buckles: wonderful to use however feels insecure as I've encountered times where I've put down the bag and seen the bucket closures come undone

 Performs wonderfully in wet conditions. The look of the bag is wonderful, has a very urban tech look. Bold but stealthy and sleek looking enough to not command too much attention. + front horizontal storage: neat little compartment that I found myself using a lot

 Still a nice addition to have I guess, but would rather place my bottle inside the bag.  Cons: - Horrible strap design: very confusing buckle system. User will have to go through a bit of a learning curve trying to learn how to use it. End result is still rather disappointing as the process is still quite cumbersome to get the right fit

Decent bag, but big problems

 so let's just jump into it. So on the strap, there is this magnetic strap part here that when you pull it outward, the whole thing comes nice and loose and you can grab the shoulder pad part, put it to where you want it to go, and then the loose part. You can just put it to whatever size you like, whatever you feel like, and then this part goes right back up again on the strap Here there is actually a moldy strap where the support strap would have gone, so you would click it onto here and then connect it to the back corner of the bag. And at the time I didn't realize that I needed it because I don't normally wear those ones

 Um another way you can make this item more slack is you take this bracket which is little bent bracket and you do a little clicky click thing and it'll step it down and make it a bit more slack for you as well. But once again I would grab the shoulder strap, pull it to where my liking would be, and then adjust the loose strap to where I feel good about it. So that's it. Just wanted to, uh, let you guys know about the strap system

 So that's it. Just wanted to, uh, let you guys know about the strap system. Uh yeah. All right, Thanks for watching and we'll see you again soon!

Hey guys, how's it going? Uh, so it's come to my attention that there is not enough reviews about the strap system on the Timbuk2 a special stash messenger bag. So we're gonna go and uh, look at that today. so let's just jump into it.

Timbuk2 Especial Stash Strap System

I really like the style of this bag. It's sleek, modern and large (wide) enough to hold two 17" laptops with a bit of room for other stuff. Unfortunately, the pad on the strap is fixed at one end and not adjustable. Unless you are *always* going to sling it across your back like you're on a bit, the pad will be in the middle of your back and the strap will dig into your shoulder

Nice Bag, but the strap is a deal breaker

Laptop zippered pocket does not fit my 15" HP laptop. You can barely squeeze it in, as the zippered opening is narrower than the pocket. Also not deep enough so it sticks out, making that pocket being water proof pointless. The main flap sides that help keep water out, also prevent the flap from staying open or being able to flop it over so you can get stuff out

M too small for 15" laptop

I can't use this bag. It's made really well, like obviously bombproof, but the design and fit are so bad for me that I just can't do it.  The strap is bewilderingly over-engineered to the point that it only fits one way on your body. It has one point that's designed to shape to your shoulder, and if you're fat/large-chested or you want to wear the bag so it bounces off your hip, it won't fit

I like to wear messengers across my back when I'm moving but the rest of the time I loosen the strap and slide the bag down onto my right hip so I can access the inside of the bag without taking it off, or drape my jacket over the top so I don't have to hold it. You just can't do that with this bag

Terrible shoulder strap

The Executive Leather Messenger bag has a hefty price tag, but it’s worth it if you are looking for a well-constructed and meticulously designed messenger bag to keep for the long haul.

 Hi, this is Gary at Waterfield Designs, and I'm excited to introduce our classic Executive Leather Messenger brief. The wonderful thing about the bag is the statement it makes. It's sophisticated, it's sturdy, reliable, it's highly functional, and it fits right in at a board meeting, a client presentation, or sessions with your project team. We took the classic Messenger bag and pared it down to the essentials

 This is our fabulous new Executive Leather Messenger brief, designed to get you where you want to go, both on the road and in life. It's a timeless piece that gets better and better looking the more you wear it, and it's available today from SF Bags. Thanks for watching.

 On top is a thoughtfully placed comfortable leather carry handle. We position the handle toward the back so it takes the stress away from the front of the flap. We even angle the leather handle slots to line up with the way you actually hold the bag. On the back is a convenient suitcase slot to slip onto your carry-on handle, making rushing through SFO or any airport a bit easier

 We've attached the adjustable shoulder strap to metal D-rings so the strap rotates and adjusts the way you're carrying the bag, either cross body or over one shoulder. We place the D-rings low so the strap pulls the entire surface area of the bag against your body, making it more comfortable to wear. On top is a thoughtfully placed comfortable leather carry handle. We position the handle toward the back so it takes the stress away from the front of the flap

Executive Leather Messenger Brief by WaterField Designs

 What I wound up with was a very stylish, classy-looking bag that contained a veritable mess of tech paraphernalia. Two particular issues worth highlighting: the price for the Staad’s sleek looks is the absence of a water bottle holder on the side, I miss that; and the leather flap at the top is big enough to cover and accommodate more stuff, but it only cinches in one position, whereas some alternatives like the Everyday Backpack from Peak Design will expand to fit more.

 For the past few months, I have been testing two of Waterfield’s backpacks, both costing $329: the svelte and minimalist Staad and the fit-your-entire-life-in-it Bolt. It’s good that I’ve had them for so long because it took me a while to get accustomed to their peculiarities, and another while longer to fully appreciate the quality of their materials. Now, though, I’m a fan.

 This bag has roughly double the amount of space that I need on most days, so it really wasn’t the one for me. If you’re not going to fill it up, the Bolt doesn’t wear too well, and I often found the weight of my stuff digging into the back of my waist just because it was all sitting at the bottom of such a big chasm of space. On the odd occasions where I needed to really load up on stuff, though, it was nice to have this bag around. 

 But even so, I think it’d be a crime to get a Staad in nylon, because the style of that bag is perfectly matched to the old-school canvas look. That’s still a hardy material, but it just feels nicer to the touch than the nylon and will age beautifully along with the full-grain leather.

The Staad and Bolt backpacks from Waterfield Designs are pricey and peculiar, but ultimately worth it
