What one should you be investing your money in? What do they have to offer? These are the questions we are going to dive in today, to point you towards finding the perfect bag on the go. So, what is a messenger bag? Well a messenger bag, also known as a courier bag, is a type of bag that is worn over one shoulder with a strap that goes across your chest.
Usually the bag will rest on your side or the lower back. What is funny about these bags is that they were first used by mailmen and women across the country, until they came into high fashion. These bags are often made out of a kind of cloth, natural or synthetic, but they can also be made out of leather.
Similar to any other type of bag, messenger bags are meant to help you carry personal belongings while you are on the road. They feature a flap open case that you can carry items such as laptops or tablets, or even clothes. Messenger bags are often water resistant so you can use them out in the rain, and are often more durable than other over the shoulder bags you can find on the market today. So, a backpack is a bit more well known when compared to a messenger bag.
We all know what it can do. Instead of having a strap that goes over one shoulder, a backpack is a sack that is secured with straps that go over your shoulders. These are used more often by hikers and students to carry a huge load of things to and from school or work. They were originally used by hunters way back years ago, as an easier way to transport game back to their tribe.
Two decades ago, backpacks were for school children and hikers, and the briefcase was a common sight in offices and courtrooms. Alas, with technology, comes change, and today, the laptop is an essential tool for almost everyone. Manufacturers have met the need by providing an array of messenger bags and backpacks for carrying your laptop.
The right choice for you depends on several factors including style, features, and how the bag will be used. Weigh the pros and cons to decide the right choice for you. Because these backpacks are so similar, at least on first glance, it is often hard to decide. The classic messenger bag with a cross-body strap and handles for carrying has become the ubiquitous replacement for the briefcase.
Even utility pole climbers use a type of messenger bag to conveniently carry their tools. The difference? They are typically spatially well-designed and comfortable to carry. Many come with organizational features that make them quite versatile. The biggest downsides to a shoulder bag are arguably weight and size, though.
Having all the weight on one shoulder all the time can result in muscle tightness along with back and neck pain. If you carry a inch or larger laptop day-to-day, it quickly gets uncomfortable.
Also, you can only make a shoulder bag so large before it just becomes awkward. That said, the compression straps typically used on messenger bags can help keep the bag tight when not fully loaded. Your choice in the end essentially comes down to your needs and personal style, and I guess how much back and shoulder pain you can live with. I commute between New Jersey and New York by train and bus, carry two phones and travel with a 4-pound laptop, so my preference is for a shoulder bag.
A backpack is eminently better for running to catch said train and bus, however. Disclosure: CNET may get a share of the revenue if you buy anything featured on our site.
