Daryl –
This was the first ChrisW Design bag I ever made. It is loaded with pockets! I carried my laptop in this bag for years. There are places for paper notebooks, pens, your computer laptop, mouse, mouse pad, cords and so much more! I love the shape and style of the bag so much that I even made several smaller versions with fewer pockets to wear as a cross body bag. I sold about 3 bags that I made smaller and made one for myself and my daughter too. I did not test this bag, but became a bag tester for Christine shortly after making this bag. I still love that I can make this bag as is or make it smaller with fewer pockets. It will always be one of my favorite bags.
