    What's this all about?

    For all you die-hards out there, the Especial Messenger withstands even the most grueling commutes. With Cordura ripstop, abrasion resistant nylon on the outside and waterproof TPU inside and on the boot, the Especial handles foul weather and even fouler road grime with ease. Magnetic buckles with tensionlock enable on-bike, one-hand access to your messenger, and the ambidextrous shoulder strap favors righties and lefties and can be micro-positioned for a truly custom fit. The backbender flexible cooling panel provides superior ventilation and comfort and the laptop slash pocket rides up to a 15" MacBook Pro in style. Pile on quick-access pockets for your phone, lock, and keys and you've got a messenger you may never take off and you will certainly never leave behind.
