out Dave Taylor here and I've been using
0:15
this esterer 17-in laptop messenger bag
0:18
for a couple of weeks now and there's a
0:21
lot I've learned to like about it as you
0:23
can see it's pretty darn stylish and all
0:26
of the leather features including on the
0:28
strap those are actually polyurethane or
0:31
PU leather so no cows were harmed in the
0:35
making of this bag the canvas is
0:37
actually a water resistant canvas which
0:39
has come in very helpful because I have
0:42
had it rained on and snowed on in the
0:44
last few weeks that's just our weather
0:46
this time of year so I really really
0:49
appreciate that it keeps everything safe
0:51
and snug now before I go any further
0:54
here's our first compartment so it's
0:56
about this big and as you can see it's
1:00
quite accessible from right outside of
1:03
the case and if that's not enough
1:05
there's another one here I didn't even
1:08
know about and this one is plenty big
1:12
enough that you could have oh I would
1:14
say a Kindle or a tablet or a book or
1:17
something but then when we spin it
1:19
around we haven't even opened it up yet
1:21
right here's a third zippered
1:24
compartment and I should mention these
1:25
are all reinforced zippers and this one
1:28
I actually have have some stuff in so I
1:32
have what do I have cables and my
1:36
airpods Pro and my emergency Apple watch
1:39
charger so all that fits in here and
1:43
then on the sides as you expect nowadays
1:47
with these sort of cases there are water
1:49
bottle holders which if you're really
1:51
cool you have a water bottle on one side
1:54
and a compact fold up umbrella on the
1:57
other side and you're ready for
1:59
everything now now with that it also has
2:02
the shoulder strap and this shoulder
2:03
strap is adjustable to 25 in I have it
2:07
at its shortest point and I'll point out
2:10
that there's the sort of PU leather on
2:12
one side but the other side is actually
2:14
padded with a redundant handle and the
2:17
handle's a little bit wobbly because I
2:19
don't have spin this back around I don't
2:23
actually have the two clips so on the
2:25
bottom here there are these clips and I
2:28
don't tend to clip them because I don't
2:31
actually have this not with me so let's
2:35
open it up and when we open it up you
2:38
will notice another zippered container
2:42
and this one I have more cables in carry
2:46
a lot of cables with me so not only does
2:49
it have cable space
2:52
but it actually has Organization for
2:55
pens or pencils and business cards or
2:59
credit cards and in fact go figure I
3:01
have business cards in there too so this
3:04
has lots of space and it has that hole
3:07
here not exactly sure what you can use
3:09
that for but I've seen that in a lot of
3:12
cases um if you know the intention of
3:14
that then go ahead and leave a comment
3:16
and tell me what I should have known
3:18
about these so there's that and now we
3:21
get into the main compartment and you'll
3:23
notice that the main compartment is
3:26
zippered closed so there's a little bit
3:28
more safety there
3:30
but I'll open it up and then inside is
3:35
space it's a padded holder for up to a
3:39
17.3in laptop I have my 16-in MacBook
3:43
Pro snug and safe in there so there's
3:47
that space But then when you actually
3:49
close the flap or move it up there then
3:52
you get even more space in here one of
3:55
the things that you include is this
3:58
separate but match
4:00
pencil case pouch now I don't find that
4:03
I need this because I don't tend to have
4:05
a lot of writing utensils but if you're
4:07
an artist and you have a laptop and a
4:09
tablet and you have all your favorite
4:11
writing gear this is perfect if not put
4:15
it in a drawer don't worry about it so
4:17
also in here is a lot of space so
4:22
glasses
4:24
charger yet another cable this one's a
4:27
bit
4:28
longer and what else do I have in here I
4:31
have a couple of
4:32
pens um so there's a lot of space and
4:37
this also there's even more in here um
4:41
there's so much space there's so many
4:43
different pouches and areas that if you
4:46
can't make this work for you spacewise
4:49
then you really have a lot of stuff so
4:52
this has worked great for me there's the
4:54
inner compartment is actually quite big
4:56
you can easily put a big pair of chunky
4:59
headon phones or something in here
5:01
paperback book your lunch whatever you
5:03
need and then when you're about to put
5:06
the flap over it then just go ahead and
5:08
give it a quick zip to close it and then
5:11
put the flap over and now you have that
5:14
ability to know that everything's safe
5:17
and you have this sort of weather
5:19
security too and that's really great so
5:23
I will tell you the unit itself is 18.5
5:27
in X 13.8 in x 5 .9 in and I've shown
5:32
you pretty much all the key features and
5:35
all the different Pockets unless there
5:37
are others that I haven't found yet but
5:39
I'm pretty sure I got them all comes in
5:41
four different colors dark gray light
5:44
gray gray and brown obviously gray is a
5:47
popular color now having shown you all
5:52
that and talked about all this I will
5:54
say the one thing that I wish they had
5:56
done differently is that the actual
5:59
laptop space is a bit sort of softer
6:05
than I would like so especially when
6:07
there's no laptop in it everything tends
6:09
to just sort of crumple on down a little
6:11
bit and I wish they would have made that
6:13
part a bit stiffer and that's something
6:16
I suppose I could do myself by adding
6:19
like a stiff board into the back of the
6:23
laptop space but I find that when I open
6:26
up the middle part it sometimes gets a
6:29
little hard to figure out what's where
6:31
and you know how that all works and then
6:34
the other thing and I've said this about
6:35
many other cases too and many other bags
6:38
too is that they have the velcro here so
6:42
that you can velcro close the laptop
6:45
compartment but for reasons I cannot
6:47
explain this is only a small piece and
6:51
this is only a small piece which means
6:53
you can't actually close it snugly
6:56
unless you have the very largest laptop
6:59
and that's a easily remedied problem or
7:01
solution where you just need to have the
7:04
velcro part be longer so you can put it
7:07
at whatever tightness or whatever
7:09
snugness you prefer rather than the way
7:11
they have it where it ends up being a
7:13
little bit looser than I'd like but
7:16
those are my tiny tiny complaints about
7:19
an otherwise really nice very attractive
7:22
and certainly very capacious messenger
7:26
bag so really one worth checking out I
7:29
am going to ask you to subscribe to my
7:31
channel go ahead and click on that
7:33
subscribe button hit that Bell icon for
7:35
notifications and give me a thumbs up if
7:38
you found this of value obviously I hope
7:40
you did great this now let me close it
7:43
again so you can get sort of full design
7:45
effect and bring the strap
7:49
over so this is the esterer 17in laptop
7:54
messenger bag comes in four different
7:56
colors and it is at this color at least
8:00
$67.99 currently discounted down to
8:02
$48.99 at
8:04
amazon.com I will note that the
8:06
different colors are different prices
8:08
not sure what that's all about but when
8:10
you go and check it out and I have a
8:12
link in the description then look at the
8:14
different colors and decide how much you
8:16
like that particular color and whether
8:19
it's worth paying more than a different
8:21
color that might be $10 or $20 cheaper
8:23
but that's all I got I'm going to put
8:25
all my gear back in cuz I'm going to
8:27
continue to use this so I'll hope to
8:29
catch you in my next video
