I also posted a great review on Chrome’s website since this is a new bag for them and it is a masterpiece of utility, they really have designed a wonderful bag. I initially bought this because it matched the Valencia tote pack I had also bought and planned to use as my EDC bag. But this bag is even better! At least if you are not carrying at laptop. It does have a giant center pocket space if you do want to carry one, but I don’t, and it is ideal for my purposes, which is to carry a purse like sling back while I walkabout every day and also have the option to pick up some groceries on the way home. Perfect for this use case. The bag has a large internal pocket in the back that fits a mini iPad. And two mesh interior pockets that are smaller that fit smaller bits like a mirror, travel tickets, a fold up grocery tote, whatever, plus a giant, giant cavernous center space that will fit a 14 inch laptop, or beach towel and flipflops and a water bottle, or sweatshirt, gym clothes, overnight clothes, or in my case, a bag of groceries to cook dinner. The exterior has two large gusseted pockets in the front that fit a your phone and wallet and also probably fit my flat flask water bottle. The strap is thick and sturdy and sewn on, and you can sling the bag close to your body. The bag looks small and does not overwhelm like many messenger bags. It looks very sophisticated and nice. I absolutely love it. Highly recommend. Fabric is high quality and I bought the sage color. Chrome has a beautiful red color on their website as well that is a gorgeous saturated hue.

This is fairly no frills, but that's what I like about it. It's a good size for all my stuff without being so large that it's unwieldy. The strap is a bit challenging to adjust, but it's a good length. The pockets inside are great; I like the mesh pockets as it makes it easy to find what I need. I like the fabric as it looks like it's clean up easily, plus it's made of recycled plastic, which is a win. The outside pockets took a bit to get used to, because there is band that covered the top of the pocket, rather than a zipper or somethin. Now that I've used it for a while I prefer this style, as it offers protection while being easy to get at your items. The only real thing I don't like is that is has no padding on the bottom. So I don't feel very comfortable keeping my laptop of more expensive devices in the bag. I'd hoped to use it for quick day trips with my laptop or for work, but this bag offers no protection so I' need to get a padded laptop bag or something. Overall, I'm pleased. This is good, but not perfect. I think I'll get a lot of use out of it.

I love it. I bought it in Sage originally and just bought the black one as well. I’ve been using it as a day bag while traveling and my personal item. The buckle in the middle of the strap can be annoying and uncomfortable if you have it placed weird, but I bought a strap cover for that.

I got this bag to go with my smaller Chrome Industries Sodo sling bag and it’s a fantastic match. I love the shape of these bags, the way they hang they sort of wrap around your torso when worn crossbody and are very sleep with how close they sit to the body. The fabric and materials used are also top notch; it’s a sort of weathered looking nylon which looks much nicer in person and serves to break up an all black block of color. The interior of the bag is nothing fancy but there is a divider along with a couple mesh pockets for some organization, although much like my sling bag this one is also missing a lanyard which I wish they’d add. The nylon strap is comfortable, being made from seat belt style material which runs through a buckle that serves as a carabiner hanging point which I clip my AirPods to. Fit and finish is excellent - the bag is put together very nicely and has a subdued, classy look. It’s an excellent messenger bag and makes for a great alternative to my Sodo bag when I need more room but still want a bag that looks compact and sleek.

This crossbody messenger bag is seriously awesome! It looks sleek but has tons of space inside for all my stuff. Because it’s made from lightweight materials it makes it easy to carry without being too heavy and bulky. The pocket for my laptop is the best feature - other crossbody bags are too small for my computer. All the materials and zips are high quality and it feels very well made. Perfect for carrying a lot without feeling heavy. Love it!
