5 Stars Great big bag
5.0 out of 5 stars Great large bag, January 14, 2009
I am a grad student who always carries a laptop along with several books and notebooks. I’ve had a tough time finding a good laptop carrier that could also much of anything else — most were too inflexible to hold more than one or two thinner books. This bag puts the laptop into a stiffer rear compartment and has a larger space available for other books, chargers, and anything else you might need. There is also an organizer and several smaller pockets located around the front of the bag, making it easy to carry most things. One additional note about the laptop holder is that it has a sleeve-like opening for holding papers that you need to keep their shape.
On the whole, I think this is a great bag. I should warn you that this is a big bag. If you don’t need to carry a laptop plus a fair amount of other materials, I wouldn’t recommend one this size. Also, I have only had this for a month — not nearly enough time to comment on its durability. That being said, the bag does seem to be well-built.
1 Stars Big, but not heavy duty
Like another reviewer, my bag broke while it was loaded, and I was trucking along. I packed a textbook, 16oz H20, 16oz coffee, and a Dell Precision M6400 with power brick and mouse. It fits, but the plastic clips that attach the bag to the shoulder strap are crap. One broke under the load and I found out something else. While the back panel is padded to protect your humongous laptop, the edges are not padded. So when the bag decided to free fall, it landed on the corner of my laptop. So far, the only damage to the laptop is a dented corner. The laptop corner actually cut through the bag’s canvas, and so there is a cut on the bottom of the bag now. The dent is bad enough that I almost soiled myself when I saw it. To Dell’s credit, the laptop seems to be functional.
Thanks a lot High Sierra, for cheaping out on the most mechanically critical part of this bag. If they would have used a better resin, or even metal like a carabiner, this would not have happened.
5 Stars Versitle Bag
This product is very well made. Plenty of storage space and light weight. The wide shoulder strap makes it very comfortable to wear for long periods of time without feeling like your circulation will be cut off.
Great warranty. I would highly recommend this product.

5 Stars Great Bag for work
High Sierra Sherman Messenger Bag
I ordered this bag to switch for an everyday pack to lug my laptop and various things to work. I am very impressed with the quality of this bag. Zippers are heavy duty and seal to keep out water. There are pockets for everything. I especially like the zippered pocket on the side with holds my power brick, mouse, and a couple of other wires. The mesh pocket on the side does a great job holding my water bottle for quick access. It is a very roomy bag which can carry all my stuff for work plus my lunch and some workout stuff. A great bag for a professional on the go.
