Review: Great messenger bag that passes as a briefcase - I had a need to upgrade from an urban sized sling bag to a more professional looking bag. I spent weeks researching different bags and decided on the Commute 2.0. Starting with the outside, on the back there is padded laptop sleeve that can fit my 15 inch laptop. On the back there is also another pocket with a zipper on top and a zipper on bottom. With both zippers open, you have a luggage pass through. If you don’t need that, you can keep the bottom zipper closed at all times and now you have a quick access rear pocket. The front does not have any pockets or easy access to pockets unless you pull up the flap to access a napoleon pocket. Once you unbuckle the straps, you have access to a pocket that has a key lanyard in it as well as the napoleon pocket. There is Velcro with a silencer pre installed cover the hooks. Inside the bag, there are several compartments. The first is a smaller compartment for smaller items. It does not have any organization such as pockets or pen holders. I purchased a medium sized cocoon grid it from desertcart that fits perfectly in that pocket and alleviates the need for pockets or pen holders. The main compartment is good sized. I can carry an expandable “red well” folder in there loaded with paper plus some legal pads in there no problem. There is then a soft padded separator that can likely hold a smaller tablet and cell phone. Behind that divider is another slot where another laptop 15” is able to fit. The bag comes with a removable strap. Unlike the Commute 1.0 which I also have, it does not come with a quick adjust strap. The bag carries well cross body and it appears to be designed to be carried on the right side of the body. In addition, the bag comes with a cross body strap. In black the bag looks sleek and professional. It does not replace a well made leather bag, but it is passable on a court room or for a business meeting. Overall, I am very satisfied with the Commute 2.0. I also considered the Chrome Kadet Max, the Tom Bihn Pilot, and Topo Designs Global Briefcase. I think the Commute 2.0 looks better and, from my research, has similar functionality.
Review: Very spacious and comfortable - I am delighted with my purchase. I am a lawyer and make appearances in court regularly. If my file is not too voluminous, this bag is perfect. It is very comfortable to carry and it is very spacious. This avoids the need to bring a heavier briefcase or one with wheels. Plenty of secure and species compartments. Highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Decent bag, but hoping for more for the price
*by E***. on September 10, 2025*

This is a decent bag, but I was personally hoping for more for the price. The bag is designed for a 15” laptop according to the manufacturer. They really should specify 15” MacBook, as that’s what the internal laptop sleeve really seems to be sized for. I was able to fit my work-issued 15” Lenovo machine in there, but it’s tight. The same really applies to the external water bottle sleeve - I am able to fit my 18oz yeti water bottle in there, but it’s a tight squeeze. This seems designed more to hold a disposable 12oz ice mountain bottle. I get not fitting a 32oz or larger giant water bottle, but the 18oz insulated bottles are really pretty standard size. There’s a quick-access external padded pocket that I guess is designed for a tablet, because while it would be great for a laptop you need quick access to, it really would only fit an 11” or maybe a bezel-less 13” model. It’s weird to me that the luggage sleeve/pocket/strap is zipped at the top and bottom. I guess that means you can use it as a pocket if you aren’t carrying a roller suitcase, but the zip from top and bottom make it not a very secure pocket. There should be more organization in this bag in general. Besides the laptop sleeve, there’s two neoprene organizers and then just one big gaping bag pocket. There’s another pocket in the front, but it has no top to secure it, so I find I can’t really put anything in there. Lastly there’s a small keys and trinkets pocket in the front, which is only big enough for your keys and maybe a knife or lighter. The water resistant fabric feels like it will be effective, but I personally try to avoid ever testing this. The shoulder strap is sturdy.
