Just doing some looking around online I found a consistent issue with the durability of the messenger bag variant of this drop. People complain of low quality glue, of the straps breaking, of the magnets coming loose, and of the material of the bag wearing out and snagging up from simple daily use.
I won't be participating in this one, and I'd like for Massdrop to vet their offers better.

I literally have this exact laptop bag.

I'm not sure why, but they photoshopped out the little decal/logo that's on the front bottom right of the bag in their 4th image. You can see that it's there in the other images but not in the 4th. Smells a little fishy to me. Mine says "Brinch".
Overall, this is a pretty okay bag. I have the 15" version, it also comes in 13", 14" and 17" as well as a whole lot more color variations. Unless this is the 17" version (which is huge), this is not a good deal.

The MSRP is laughable.
I've had 2 of these already, only because I like the style. The first one came apart at the seems, where the shoulder strap hooks onto the actual bag. It lasted about 9 months (5 days/wk).

Is that not just the other side of the bag without the logo? I think both sides look essentially the same as they both have the zippered pocket. Does your's have the logo on both sides?
Nonetheless... disappointing about the durability. I've seen this company advertised elsewhere, and find the wool products interesting, but have been leery about the quality due to various reviews such as this. Thanks for the first-had account!

The zipper is only on one side. If you look at all the other images, the logo is very clearly visible. Image 5 has a very obvious slightly blurry spot in the bottom right corner of the bag, which is a poorly done photoshop job.

Maybe it's more obvious to me since I've worked with photoshop in the past.

I wonder how snug this would be with my Macbook Pro?

cz6y48Depends if you have the 15" or 13" Mbp. The 13" would fit into any of the sizes that this bag comes in (which aren't listed here or specified which size this is), the 15" would fit into all but 1 of the sizes.
