It looks like a winner. I love my Arkel Commuter, and I would seriously consider this if I were in the market again. It looks a little more yersatile. Not sure if it would handle a laptop as well as the commuter does, but I'm sure there's a way. Also it looks wider than the commuter, so I'd have to make sure about heel clearance with my set up. Arkel makes good sh_t.
