Every television news producer has the same obsession...the search for the perfect bag. After 20 years in the business, I have amassed an embarrassing collection of bags. I've tried just about every style of bag...backpack, messenger, doctor, even towable. My mission has always been to find a bag that can carry all the tools of the trade safely, comfortably and in a way that allows me to find what I need when I need it.The STM Velo is the best I've ever owned. Right now it holds a 15" Retina display macbook, an iPad, iPad keyboard, a 15" USB monitor, an external drive [in a case], Bose headphones [in their case], reading glasses, misc. office supplies [pens, pads, reporter notebooks, etc], business cards, cables, water bottle, mail and a couple of magazines. And I know where every one of the those items is located.And it's comfortable to carry...even at the ridiculous weight of all the crap I carry around everyday.The bag is beautifully...
I will never buy another one. I was looking for something that would hold all my craziness and this goes beyond it. There are so many pockets! There's one by the handle, 5" deep by 8" across. In the back there's another pocket, fits my drawing pads perfectly. The area for the laptop is nicely padded with easy access. Granted, yes, the main inside compartment's zipper is strangely placed, but so far that's the only downfall. When I opened the flap, I was happily surprised by the set up. The pictures did not do this bag justice. You have TWO side pockets that will each fit a water bottle. Then the main compartment is huge. There are two "pouches", one has a tablet icon. Both are pretty big, one is 12" wide by 9" inches tall. The other is 16" wide by 9" tall. Also has two smaller "pouches" for various items. The main section is big enough to fit my huge DSLR if need be, along with books (it's a huge pocket 6" deep by 16" wide) and whatever...
Bag works well and seems well constructed. Max size is really 15 inches as it states. A 15.4 inch is really pushing it (such as a T500). Thankfully, my work laptop is only 15 inches....
