After casually following this thread I decided to visit Chrome's site. I don't think there has been a mention of their Messenger Packs;
http://www.chromebags.com/products/bags/packs/ Seems as they would be a more comfortable option because the weight is evenly distributed over both shoulders. After spending six years as a wagon messenger I know time is money and the single strap bags are easier and quicker to get in and out of. Anyone have experience with the Packs? I could use a large bag for shopping trips.
I currently use a Osprey 700 cu. in. pack that works well with a 3L CamelBak bladder;
