3.0 out of 5 stars
A nice bag with some problems,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: be.ez LEvertigo Messenger Bag for MacBook 13" or MB Pro 15.4" (Black/Pumpkin) (Personal Computers)
This is a well-made, attractive, and functional bag. It's good for those who want a small bag capable of holding just a laptop, power supply, and a couple small books and accessories. The size is perfect for holding a 13" MacBook/MB Pro, although a 13.3" MB Air will swim a bit in the laptop enclosure. Its construction quality seems excellent, and its appearance is subdued (on the outside at least), and unoffensive if a bit plain. The inside of the bag (I have the black/pumpkin model) strives for the contrasting bright color that seems to be en vogue lately, although it comes off as mostly garish. The be.ez logo "e" also serves as the velcro clasp, and I found myself wondering why it was necessary. I imagine I'll be embarrassed opening this bag around others, as it looks ridiculous. It also necessitates that characteristic velcro shwwwk sound, which means it can't be opened discreetly. The inside pockets are decent, although there's no obvious place to stow pens and a small notebook (the smallest pockets are great for business cards or an iPhone, but won't fit my small Moleskine notebook, for example).As other reviewers have noted, there are a few relatively minor problems with this bag that all add up to unfortunate heartache. (1) The laptop compartment has a velcro clasp to hold the computer in. It provides security, but mostly gets in the way when inserting the bag, because the velcro catches upon itself. Which means you'll have to fiddle with it every time you go to stow the computer. (2) The strap is made of slick nylon, and it will slip off your shoulder unless carried across the chest. This can be remedied by adding your own frictiony shoulder pad to the strap, but you'll have to add one aftermarket. It's a shame that be.ez didn't include one, although I do understand that it would reduce the elegance of the strap's appearance. (3) There's no handle on the top of the bag to facilitate grabbing it directly. That may seem like a minor detail until you realize how often you'll want to do that. (4) There's no pocket in the back of the bag. I didn't even think about this before purchasing, it's become such a standard feature. Having easy access to a book, magazine, airline boarding passes, etc. without opening the main compartment isn't possible with this bag. Overall, the 13" LEvertigo can be compared to the Tom Bihn Ristretto, a bag I also own. They are almost exactly the same size and weight, with similar design goals. I'd hoped to replace the Ristretto mostly for reasons of style (the be.ez's black color and simplified flap are more appealing), but for the reasons mentioned above, the be.ez is a functional downgrade. That said, the Ristretto costs twice as much, so if value is a priority, the LEvertigo offers excellent quality tempered by a few major design oversights.

Perfect for a 13" MacBook Pro,

This review is from: be.ez LEvertigo Messenger Bag--13 Inches (Lime Art) (Personal Computers)
This bag fits Apple MacBook Pro MB991LL/A 13.3-Inch Laptop like a glove. No wobble at all. It's made out of durable and water resistant nylon. Unlike many other bags I've seen, this one is designed so that rain water won't seep through when the lid is closed. The interior is nicely padded. It has room for your MacBook, letter-sized documents, iPhone/iPod x 3, and a few accessories. At the same time, it's slim and comfortable to wear -- partly due to its vertical design. The stitching is nice and clean. The only thing I didn't like about it is the color of the interior. It's super-bright lime green -- a bit too tacky for my liking.

This review is from: Be.ez 100568 LE vertigo 17 Street Shoulder Bag for Macbook Pro 17 ( Grey / Blue) (Personal Computers)
The 17" macbook pro fits absolutely perfect into this bag. and while the bag looks small and slender, it can house a lot of stuff besides just the laptop and charger. It has several padded pockets (some zip) and a mesh seperator to keep things organized. I only have one complaint: the front flap is a little more ruffled/crumpled looking that the smooth looking picture. It doesn't look "bad" but not as clean looking as the product picture. As far as 17" computer bags go, this one is definitely the most stylish, while also being well made, bag on the market.
