The Best!!

Best bag I've ever owned!!

Meaningful Gift

The tote arrived with superb quality and was given as a graduation gift. It makes a perfect gift for an occasion like graduation, because it has a multitude of uses and it's durable quality makes it evident that a graduate entering their career can use the tote forever.

Easiest access while going through TSA while otherwise having my hands full

I treated myself to the Transit Pass waist pack just in time for holiday travel. Not only does the nubbed leather smell even better than the picture on the screen. It feels comfortable and as snug or loose as you want to set it around your waist. ID & passport - check. Boarding pass on mobile phone - check. Hard candy - check. And you don't look like you're having a fanny. I actually wear mine on the front, a little to the side. Just like the medieval lady of the castle wore her keys to the pantry and to the women's chambers...

Solid accessory for any selector!

Very nice high quality back with very well thought out design essential for any self respecting vinyl collector who shares their talent publicly.

Never leave home without it

This sturdy sidekick goes with me eveywhere and keeps everything organized and within hand's reach. Zipper pocket holds way more than I imagined. On an average day it's filled with my wallet, smokes, keys, glasses, usb sticks and other random items. The two pockets arw great for things you reach for often. Mine usually has a lighter and my cell. I usually wear it across my chest but it also works like a money belt (or hip sack) around your waste which I've done on some travel days when discretion is advised. Quality is bullet proof. Another T&B sure shot.
