Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've been carrying this bag for over a year. Some of the things I like about it are:
-- Perfect size, just barely big enough for an 8.5x11 file folder or notepad, but no bigger.
-- Very lightweight, but the material is very durable, I see no change after over a year.
-- Looks clean, has a "messenger bag" vibe even though it isn't a messenger bag, and doesn't look pretentious or fussy like a lot of leather "manbags".
-- Thin shape, doesn't look like a big bag, but it's flexible so it can hold unusual shape things (like a few groceries).
Some things that could be improved next time the bag gets redesigned:
-- The pocket on the front flap allows things to slip behind the back of the bag and get lost when the flap is lifted up.
-- It could use a little padding on the bottom. Currently there is no padding anywhere.
-- It could use one or two small interior pockets for small things such as a compact camera or phone.

Manhattan Portage Manhattan BagStay organized without sacrificing your sense of style with the Manhattan bag. Made of high-quality Cordura Plus nylon, the bag holds up to heavy use through the years. More significantly, the bag includes a single main compartment that's large enough for books, magazines, and a planner, along with an interior open pocket, a zippered pocket on the front flap, and a buttoned pocket underneath the flap for holding a wallet, purse, keys, or PDA. And thanks to the 2-inch-wide adjustable shoulder strap, the bag is comfortable and secure. The Manhattan bag--which offers 300 cubic inches of storage--measures 9 by 12 by 3 inches (W x H x D), weighs 0.8 pounds, and carries a limited lifetime warranty.
About Manhattan Portage There was a simple philosophy that Manhattan Portage set out to achieve back in 1983: "A Bag For Everyone." And twenty-five years later it is certainly ringing true. From Montreal to Melbourne, Osaka to Oslo, and Stockholm to San Francisco, Manhattan Portage's line of bags are indeed everywhere. Despite their sweeping global popularity, Manhattan Portage remains loyal to their NYC roots. This 25-year lifespan in the volatile fashion world, and in a town that embraces the designer-of-the-moment but does not suffer has-beens, is no small feat. Manhattan Portage has been able to avoid becoming another fleeting fad and withstand the test of time because their bags do.
By innovating and expanding their line to accommodate the range of uses their bag owners' demand, the Manhattan Portage line has developed to serve all walks and runs of urban life. Whether you are a DJ transporting your spinning equipment, a cell phone-toting investment banker, a starving student hauling pricey textbooks, or a messenger racing to deliver documents on time, Manhattan Portage has a style for you. (Even if, like many New Yorkers, you fit into two or more of these categories!)
With their red logo, 1000 denier Cordura nylon, Delrin hardware, and a style selection including laptop bags, messenger bags, backpacks, and more, Manhattan Portage bags don't hide and won't be going away any time soon. The emergence of competitors and innumerable imitators hasn't fazed them, but rather left Manhattan Portage celebrating this ultimate sign of trend triumph. Although Manhattan Portage has received press in The New York Times, People, Newsweek, and the Village Voice, their media coverage is not what has fueled their resounding success. It is their versatility, durability, and adaptability that has allowed them to survive the ebb and flow of mercurial fashion tides.
