Nutsac Messengers & Satchels Review
"Simple & Solid"
High quality waxed canvas and leather. Simple organization. Some models use magnets to latch. Simple and solid.
- Multiple sizes and designs available. I love the Magsatch 11 without a strap as my daily sundries bag when not carrying laptop.
- Passionate maker dudes (obviously, with a name like that 🙂
- Their bags feel nice to the touch, well executed. Heritage materials feel excellent in the day to day.
- Simple organization. Nothing fancy. Get a pouch or two.
More on the Nutsac Messengers & Satchels
What I like
- Rich waxed canvas and thick leather with a big leather strap. Heritage materials that feel great day to day
- Dense, hefty feel. Well executed
- Simple organization: back zip pocket, two front pouches, a front zipper
- Multiple sizes and designs
- You can order without the Nutsac name, just the little acorn
Watch for
- The smaller messenger has no padded laptop compartment, and my 16" laptop doesn't fit. Use a case or carry an iPad
- The magnets on the bigger flap are too weak. It barely holds
- Organization is basic. Get a pouch or two
