I think it'd look better as all denim. Can't see a reason for that camouflage, doesn't blend in well. Which is more than a little ironic :).

since there is camo i actually like it… a lot!
only thing that i'm not quite a fan of are the denim shoulder straps...think they will bleed blue and be visible on a few top-items imo!...

So, I need a new bag, I'm looking at this: http://killspencer.com/device/macbook-pro-17/korean-war-era-business-messenger.html

Anyone got any suggestions for a similarly hardy messenger?

For that kinda dough, check out Head Porter.

Different style, but definitely hardy are the bags by Mission Workshop.  I've got one of the backpacks and the thing is damn near indestructible.  I'd imagine the messenger bags are built to the same level…

Cheers dudes

Mission Workshop look great, thanks.

I like TadGear for all my packs. I hear good things about their messenger bag

Anytime.  I've got a Vandal backpack and absolutely love it.  Been contemplating one of their messengers for a while now…

Similar style to the Mission Workshop bag would be Timbuk2.  Mine is going on 13 years old with near daily use.  Still going strong.  And the customization options if you choose to build your own are extensive.

I had a Timbuk2 as my go to back for around 5 years.  Never had any problems with it, aside from it not being waterproof (the reason I upgraded).

Having said that, my Mission Workshop bag is definitely a level above what Timbuk2 has to offer.  The zippers, other hardware, and materials are all an improvement from the bag I had…

Got the Mission Workshop Monty messenger. Recommended. I'll do an EDC pic when I have a minute.

Thing is fucking bullet proof.

I was in Condor Cycles in London this evening (contemplating a Pista build), and whilst there I had a play with a Mission Workshop Rambler - very well made piece of kit, probably bomb proof, but I'm not sure I could justify the price.

A mate of mine has the Rambler. Bombproof it is. Really lovely piece.

Damn you're good, I haven't even posted anything 

[unharmed]

You're in Condor looking at Pistas and Mission Workshop stuff. Undoubtedly a Forumenger
