@amillar7 it holds a lot of stuff, has lots of compartments to keep your stuff organized and isn’t too expensive. I mean if you don’t need a purse don’t buy one, but it does a great job of carrying crap you’d rather not keep in your pocket
OK, not feeling very smart here…I read the description and it sounds like the laptop actually fits inside. However, in the picture, the laptop (Toshiba Chromebook???) appears to be poking out about 2"…making it not a very good laptop bag at all?
@amillar7 it does fit inside. Women’s briefcases tend to lack basic things like laptop pockets. Same way ladies pants don’t have pockets. They’re just showing it does contain a laptop area.
I used reviewmeta.com’s browser plugin, and all of a sudden a lot of reviews disappeared and the reviews plunged. (No, I don’t work for reviewmeta.com. It’s just a useful way of policing Amazon reviews.)
Anyway, speaking as a certified femme person, I just put my real purse in my rolling bag and use a laptop bag as my purse for purposes of plane-boarding. And don’t patronize airlines that limit you to one carry-on.
Daughter gets a classic. And my knife code expired, wtf, Meh? You give me a discount code, offer up crap I don’t want for a year (mehbe I’d forget?), and then you tell me you’ve expired my discount code when I remembered I had it and you actually put up something I want?
Ok because it’s such an enormous deal i had to buy 1 of each , will make nice gifts , no one needs to know what you paid its nice merch period …once again ty Meh
PS the duffle bag that i bought here last week is off the hook , wow that’s quite the bag for 28 bucks looks like 100 bucks all day long, huge and very functional one of the best deals next to the scientific projection clock for 5 bucks that took the cake …Nite !!! thanks Meh
Just rebought the “classic” bag for myself. With about perfect timing. Love the bag. but my current one developed a small hole in the vinyl when it got between the floor and a leg of an occupied chair last month. (Grrr!) Bag itself is still in great shape, cosmetically, not so much.
Just love hearing all the menfolk bitching (sorry, not sorry) about either bag being too girly. It took nearly a couple decades to finally find a bag that a) didn’t look like a freebie for signing up for a new checking account. 2) wouldn’t self-destruct (broken straps and/or zippers) within two months of purchase. and 3) acknowledged that I might actually want to keep pens, phone, etc. organized.
Still loses a couple points for lacking a tablet size pocket, but it is the best laptop bag I’ve owned at any price!
So, I was playing around with the captcha link from the write-up, enjoying the sometimes funny results and the “croolpy” interpretations of some of my pictures.
And then I found out that the thing might be racist!
@Kawa i don’t know about the swim suits, since that’s what gets worn at festivals too. but maybe it understands if it’s that kind of clothing in combo with water.
mostly i was just responding to meh’s assertion that festivals are the only place that stance happens, ergo, that’s how it knows it’s a festival.
Certified Mostly-Femme Person here, but I prefer small backpacks to evenly distribute the weight on my Bags of Holding, so meh. (I’ve got a gray canvas/brown leather French Connection right now, which is a bit beat up but doing really well. I’ll probably upgrade to real Hershel in a paycheck or two.)
Just bought the Classic. I have the Executive and use it daily for work! I actually love it, but prefer black over brown - if the Classic is as good as the Executive, I will be very happy. Can’t beat the price for a laptop bag. Mine fits my HP EliteBook 840 perfectly and I have plenty of room for cords, a tablet if I want (no tablet pouch, but plenty of room to throw it in), documents & spiral notebooks.
It doesn’t even hold an entire laptop, apparently. This would be like a wallet that leaves your credit cards sticking half way out or a car where you can only get one let inside or a cat that only says “meeee” because it was manufactured by the cat gods to not say “owwww” afterwards. Sure. It’s an animal, but is it a cat? This is a bag for sure. But is it a laptop bag? I say “meh”.
@ahhhpancakes i was unsure if the product photo is just showing the kind of things that are inside, though. since others in the comments have stated it does in fact fit a laptop.
for instance, it obviously is big enough to accommodate a magazine, but they show the magazine sticking out to say “hey, you can carry your reading material in this thing!” otherwise, it would just be a photo of the bag.

Nope, even though its reviews are decent.
Meh. Literally a purse.
@mdszy That was my thought.
I prefer the red solo cups.
If it walks like a purse and quacks like a purse…
@norman8
It must be a rabbit.
@PlacidPenguin Or a penguin
This sort of thing ain’t my bag, baby.
Meh Yorker! Love it!
have one of these. it’s great. buying a dupe for when i inevitably lose or ruin it
@boygenius1991 OK, but why is it great? Really not clear on that.
@amillar7 it holds a lot of stuff, has lots of compartments to keep your stuff organized and isn’t too expensive. I mean if you don’t need a purse don’t buy one, but it does a great job of carrying crap you’d rather not keep in your pocket
It’s European!
@jsh139 damn, beat me to it!
@HemlockTea Gotta get in early to get the good meme comments!
Booooo! Just because I’m watching When We Rise doesn’t mean I want a purse! I’m semi-offended.
The contents of those bags makes me think that I’m not fancy enough to own one
Choose between a purse and a purse.
No thanks.
If I want to carry my crap in a purse, I’ll borrow one from my wife.
@daveinwarsh I bet you look marvelous with one of your ‘wifes’ purses.
Bluetooth enabled I hope.
#BluetoothEverything
Whose tiny arm is that?
You charmed me into paying for VMP status yesterday and then you slap me in the face with this purse. This is not a healthy relationship, Meh.
Inside the classic:

@amillar7 it does fit inside. Women’s briefcases tend to lack basic things like laptop pockets. Same way ladies pants don’t have pockets. They’re just showing it does contain a laptop area.
It’s the elongated handles that make it look like a purse. That and everything else about it.
@lichme - Tote?
I’ve carried these in my shop before.
The “Classic” bag is called the Waldorf Tote (it’s from the Classic collection, but the bag shape is called the Waldorf).
I believe the womens items in the Executive collection were originally a separate collection called Vestry.
@aristan Nice info well done!!!
I’m more the “Food-stained Burlap Sack” type.
Don’t miss the shirt giveaway contest over in the Let’s Meet Harrison topic.
Quilting really only looks good on quilts, imo.

Baby arm!
VTA? = Vagina, Tits, Ass,Geeze…Not brain science lol, You couldn’t get one with a strap Meh? you know for men?
@mellowirishgent Hate to break it to you, but dudes don’t need a strap-on.
@mike808 I’d link you to something where a guy could use one… But it is against the forum rules.
@mike808 lol
@mellowirishgent Man you 2 can twist shit around real fast dirty minds
@mellowirishgent I have no idea what you’re talking about.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@mellowirishgent Sez Mr. “Vagina, Tits, Ass”.

Is this “Hans” bag??
Meh like a MF’er
Dammit Meh! I am actually in the market for a nice high quality laptop bag. But I am NOT in the market for a friggin purse.
Just rebought the “classic” bag for myself. With about perfect timing. Love the bag. but my current one developed a small hole in the vinyl when it got between the floor and a leg of an occupied chair last month. (Grrr!) Bag itself is still in great shape, cosmetically, not so much.

@ciabelle I have the Executive but love that the Classic looks a little more dressy. You cannot beat this bag for the price!
So, I was playing around with the captcha link from the write-up, enjoying the sometimes funny results and the “croolpy” interpretations of some of my pictures.
And then I found out that the thing might be racist!
I put in this from a couple years ago:
Results:
Muscle 71%
Primate 63%
so, what happened when you uploaded a photo of people playing chicken in a pool? did it still assume you were at a festival? jw.
@jerk_nugget Probably would detect the water/swimsuits and give appropriate suggestions!
@Kawa i don’t know about the swim suits, since that’s what gets worn at festivals too. but maybe it understands if it’s that kind of clothing in combo with water.
mostly i was just responding to meh’s assertion that festivals are the only place that stance happens, ergo, that’s how it knows it’s a festival.
Certified Mostly-Femme Person here, but I prefer small backpacks to evenly distribute the weight on my Bags of Holding, so meh.

@UltraV21 This is super great to know (especially since I’ve got an 840 as well. haha!)
It doesn’t even hold an entire laptop, apparently.

Solo? Yeah, the bag is so low that your iPad is gonna get swiped.
Drat! Just read the comments and talked myself into getting the Executive, and it’s sold out!
@InFrom I’ll be back, meh. At 4:00.
@InFrom Curses, foiled again! Still no Executive.
