Love it

I spent a lot of time looking for the right laptop / messenger bag until I found this one. It was more than I originally planned to spend, but well worth it. The quality is amazing and the thing that surprised me the most is how light it is. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

Great bag!

Had to replace my canvas Timbuk2 bag and was looking for something a little bit different. Love the shoulder strap on this bag! The gold lining does really make it easy to see things. Love that it has sections for my iPad and laptop as well. It's roomy, but not sloppy.

Not too big, not too small

There is enough space to put in a laptop and accessories plus a small water bottle. Something I feel can be improved is the zipper on the front. They can be hard to unzip and the waterproof zipper can be made optional to change to a normal type. Also the suspension strap can be made shorter for short people.

Overall nice bag. Love it. Will definitely look out for other products in the future.

Staad Attache Laptop Brief Review

I needed a simple bag to carry my laptop, a sketchbook, and a journal. This bag is the perfect size, and I find I can actually carry my laptop, iPad, and 3 or 4 A5 hard bound blank books quite easily. The only surprise I encountered is that the buckle strap on the front is not adjustable, so sometimes contents at the top (i.e. like a roll of pens) can make the bag hard to close - which really just translates to: pack less, or rearrange.

Ballistic nylon messenger bag

Love it. Looks great. Comfortable to wear (I'm 5 for 7 170 pounds for reference). My favorite thing is that the interior is very well organized instead of just being a big pocket. My only quibble is the neoprene pocket for a phone doesn't fit larger phones like my galaxy note with an otterbox shell.

EACH BAG IS PERSONALIZED FOR YOU, NATURALLY

The premium full grain leather, the best and most expensive part of the cowhide, gets better looking with each use.

"Looks, brains, and brawn. Beautiful (even better looking than in the pictures), and built like a tank. (I've yet to wear out a WaterField bag in 10 years—I just pass them on)." - Mark T.

HOW TO FRESHEN UP YOUR CANVAS

Keep your bag looking new by applying wax when you think it needs a little refresh. Although any wax is applicable, you can use Martexin Original Wax which was initially used to coat your canvas bag.

CARING FOR YOUR LEATHER AND WAXED CANVAS

If you have the waxed canvas and chocolate leather version of the Staad Attaché, Gary shows how you can maintain these materials so they’ll look great over time. We use full grain Roughman Leather for your bag which has oils that respond well to heat.

Although this video is for the AirPods Max Shield Case, the maintenance also applies to your bag.
