My Review: The generous folks over at GreenSmart sent me their Baringo Messenger Bag to review for all of you. The color I received is the beautiful ocean blue/gray combo but it’s also available in 3 other colors. This messenger bag is very generously sized and measures 12″ high, 16″ wide, 6″ in depth. The inside is extremely roomy and the laptop bay will hold a laptop up to 15.6″ in size.
This messenger bag is not like most others I have seen…this one is fantastic because it has a lot of great organizational features built within it. The front outside of the bag has a small zipper closure compartment which would be great to hold a wallet, tickets, passports, phones, PDA’s, etc. Anything that you want to get to quickly but yet want it to be secured. On each short side of the bag are 2 small reach-in pockets where you could put a water bottle, sunglasses, or other small type of items. On the back of the bag is a large reach-in pocket which would be great for holding magazines, folders or other type of paperwork.
The bag has two different carrying straps. On the backside of the bag is a small handle strap which you can use or you can use the adjustable carry strap to carry it around your shoulder or even crossbody. Once you open up the flap to get inside the messenger bag you will find 3 large compartments. The first one has a lot of great organizational features like 2 pen holders, 4 credit card (biz card or ID holders) plus a smaller mesh pocket which would be great for holding eyeglasses or other small items. This compartment can also hold a few other small to medium sized items. The next compartment is really large so your bigger things like a blackberry, PDA, netbook, file folders, etc. could go in this compartment and along the back wall of this compartment are 2 reach-in mesh pockets for holding little things that you need to keep organized. Finally, the third compartment is a nicely padded laptop bay which will hold a laptop or netbook up to 15.6″ in size. My medium-sized laptop (15″) fits super nicely into this laptop bay compartment.
Wow…this bag will get your organized in in a hurry and do so in a stylish and eco-friendly way. The body fabric and lining of this messenger bag are made from 100% recycled plastic. By purchasing and using this particular bottle 2 bag messenger bag you will save 31 plastic water bottles from junking up our landfills. How cool is that? Totally cool!
My husband and I are both in love with our new messenger bag and have been taking turns using it. He travels every day back and forth to the office so he gets it during the weekdays and on the weekends it is all mine!
I would like to thank GreenSmart for sending us the ultra cool GreenSmart Messenger Bag for our review. Hubby and I are loving this bag!
