Timbuk2 Gripster Bag Review

For around 10 bucks this strap pad is a must have! The two main benefits of this pad are it's grippy texture, which keeps your bag from sliding around on certain jackets, and thick comfy foam that makes the heaviest bags feel 10x better than the standard pad that comes with Timbuk2 bags. It's nice to have both to change depending on your load.

A lovechild of Timbuk2's Classic and Tough-Tek strap pads, the Gripster strap pad is guaranteed to keep you comfortable whether you're trekking to work, the gym, or just around the block. The Gripster features a Griptex surface on the bottom, helping it grip your shoulders with extra stickiness. That means the cozy shoulder pad won't move around, giving it even more wont-slide-off-your-shoulder-feel-good protection. Made of durable ballistic nylon, the Gripster includes a heavy-duty Velcro attachment that fits all standard Timbuk2 straps. The Gripster measures 12 inches long by 2.5 inches wide.

Rick Steves Autobahn Messenger Bag Review

See my other bag reviews if you have a 2011 15" MacBook Pro.
Out of all of the bags I ordered, this was my favorite messenger bag. This is a great bag with the exception of the laptop compartment. There is NO padding on the bottom. I have a tendency to set my bags down with the bottom of the bag on the ground, counter, floor of the car, etc.
+ Nicely padded shoulder strap
+/- Side loading laptop compartment -- no need to lift the flap, it has a separate zipper on the side.
+ Water bottle holder on side
+ Padded grab handle, decent sized, would work with gloves.
+ Pencil/pen holders under flap.
+ main compartment under flap has a big zipper, unlike a traditional messenger, thus this one should be fairly waterproof.
- no cross strap if you are going to cycle with it and want to wear it like a traditional messenger.
+ 15" MacBook Pro 2011 fits loose in compartment, but is good with a sleeve (see my other reviews).
+ I believe there is enough space for a larger laptop.
+ Room for adapters, books, etc, but doesn't appear overly large.
I sent this bag back. Specifically due to the lack of padding on the bottom of the laptop compartment. If this bag is updated, I would buy it in a heartbeat.
