Olive/Surf Blue - Utility Tote Bag

I have to say ever since I got this tote I am obsessed with it. The only critique I would have of this bag is the laptop compartment doesn’t have the same magnetic closure that the back compartment has which makes it a very unsecure and makes the bag whenever you’re putting stuff in the pockets on that same laptop compartment area. I would love thread wallets if they could add the same magnetic closure like what they did to the back pocket it would make this back even more perfect. Currently I just went to Michael’s and I bought to like fast snap closures and I put two buttons on mine and I’m hoping that will work. If not, I’m probably gonna do a magnetic closure, but that’s on me and my customization. I also did it for my friends bag.

Pros--color, material, style. Many pockets. Long handles! and a zipper closure.

Cons--too long and not wide enough. If I put my headphones in (even in the back pocket) it reduces the width to a place where I can only fit a computer and several other items. I need this for teaching, so I was really hoping it could carry a lot. It's also hard to access the pockets well if I have my headphones (which I often use if I'm working at a coffee shop).

This bag has been a life saver. I absolutely adore it. Plenty of room and pockets, two ways to carry via straps. The longer straps are great because they actually stay on your shoulder easily. When I have my laptop, large teacher’s day planner, my full Nalgene, and the rest of my regularly used personal things, it doesn’t even feel heavy. I’m not sure how that works, but apparently it does. The outer pocket fits my iPhone 17, my car keys, my badge and lanyard, a pen, and some chapstick- so all the quick needs in the mornings and afternoons. It’s obviously super cool looking too. I have the Scout version. Highly recommend! (Also, if you’re a teacher, or first responder, you can get a discount through id.me)
