Second,if you get caught in the rain your stuff will get wet. Only the outer flap has a waterproof liner;the rear laptop compartment has no liner,the zipper isn't waterproof,and the fuzzy padding is great at wicking water inside.
It's really disappointing that a company like T2,who make real mess bags,would call this a messenger.
+1. Illustrates what I said before. If you're actually going to wear this on the bike go with their Classic Messenger Bag or Custom Laptop Bag. They have laptop inserts if you feel the need to carry a laptop and have a special pouch.
