Can someone recommend a good looking/functional travel bag?

A timbuk2 commute should be about the right size for that, I have one and like it a lot. Not intended specifically for audio gear, but should work for it.

Suit #1: I mean, have you got any insight as to why a bright boy like this would jeopardize the lives of millions?
Suit #2: No, sir, he says he does this sort of thing for fun.

I reccommend the Motu Traveller Bag.


Nic compartment fr your laptop on the front,

middle section has 3 large pockets in side of 1 large compartment - easily enough space for 2 faderfox's, 1 firewire interface, pencil case full of leads, headphones and a change of clothes.

3rd compartment has a page seperator in it but it is deep and can hold another interface and another change of clothes, cool podium pad etc.

4th compartment can hold any paper and a few leads etc, this one is only thin.

On top of all this the design is to solid construction with large steel zips, comfortable strap which forms to your shoulder really well and it has a mobile phone pocket and a further 4 pockets which i use to carry usb lights, ext hard drive, ear phones and ipod, and 1 that is empty at the moment cos i have nothing left to carry.



Definatly the best studio bag ever made. and they are made by OGIO.

much better than ableton nerd bag, oxygen tank, Maudio Studio bag, and CRUMPLER.

Buy them in uk for best price: http://www.digitalreaction.co.uk/index. ... uctid=9614

I have a spare timbuk2 Laptop Messenger that I'd like to sell.

Will fit a Macbook Pro (or most any other 15" laptop) and a small nuclear warhead inside, comfortably.


The fabric (Cordura) is tough as nails. Rest assured your laptop and your equipment will be well protected. The colors are supposed to be Olive green, silver, and steel (according to timbuk2). They have kind of a weird sheen to them though so depending on angle or lighting the bag will look like this...

or like this...

:lol:

It also has a strap cushion (not pictured) which matches the green patch.


Anyways I have another larger bag now so I'm willing to part with this one. It'd cost you $135 brand new. I'll give it to you for $85. Not a penny less.

Let me know if you're interested.
