Review by quirky1331 for High Sierra Tank Messenger Bag

I absolutely love the color of this bag! The plaid also adds detail to an otherwise plain bag, something I was looking for, among all of the plain bags on the market today. It was a little larger than I expected, or wanted, but its size can be attributed to it being very wide and thin. I can fit several text books side-by-side and my laptop inside, yet I don’t feel like I’m carrying a bulky backpack around with me. I really like the two mesh pouches on the sides; it’s very convenient for carrying multiple drink bottles. The quality is excellent. I’ve only had it for a few months, but it has not started to show signs of wear yet.
This is an excellent bag for someone looking to carry around a large amount of stuff with them. If all you plan on carrying with you is a notebook and a few pens, look for something else that’s smaller. If you were like me, and looking for something to carry several books and a computer in, then this bag will suit your purpose to the letter.

I have purchased from High Sierra before and their bag lasted from highschool on into college before I the zipper failed on me and some of the stitching on the shoulder pad was ripping out. This bag is great, fits several books, several notepads and a small binder. I have plenty of room for my calculator, pens, pencils, tissues, sunglasses, two water bottles, and a pack of gum for when I start to fall asleep in class. I use it everyday and everywhere I need to go, whether it’s school or I’m off to another country. High Sierra uses rip-stop fabric that holds up incredibly against the day-to-day grind.

I purchased this bag at JC Penny rather than ordering it; because I need to see how the bag is prior to purchasing it. Anyway I purchased this to replace my old messenger bag. My first impression is that it is a fairly large bag with two large inner compartment and one outer one. I like how it has two netting to hold two bottle of water or whatever 20 oz bottle that you want to carry. The two pockets on the inside are almost big enough to hold my Kindle2; however, the Kindle does stick out about an inch to an inch and a half. So that should give you a fair idea as to what type items you can put into those two pockets.
The two pen holders in the center of the two pockets are big enough to hold two Bic pens in each (total of 4)
I like how there are two zippers for the main compartment; the pocket for the cellphone is ok; I carry my cellphone in my pocket. Since my falls classes have not started yet; it is hard to say how much books I’ll be able to stuff into this messenger bag.
The shoulder strap is good; although I think that they could have made it a bit shorter; then again, I’m only 5′6″.
Overall, I think that you’ll be glad to have purchased this type of messenger bag; especially if you are the type of person that like to carry a lot of books at one time for classes.

OK three weeks into my fall classes and so far this messanger bag has held up and most importantly; it has been able to carry a majority of my books. It is able to fit (main compartment)four 3subject notebooks, three small but thick text books and two large textbooks. Also I was able fit my netbook in the other pocket. Granted it is heavy carrying all these books but this bag has been able to fit them.

This messenger bag was exactly what I wanted. Both the size and color are perfect. My kids have had problems fitting notebooks into the size of most backpack made these days and they would die before pulling a backpack with a handle. A three ring binder fits easily in the messenger bag and the second opening fits my daughters lunch box. Both compartments have room to spare. The smaller pockets and the zipper pocket on the flap give tons of storage. The shoulder strap is padded for comfort and adjusts. This is a great bag! The quality is there. This isn’t going to fall apart any time soon. Your kids can actually fit the things that they need to take to school in it. This was a REALLY good find!

I can point out several positive qualities of this bag. It is surprisingly lightweight. It has spacious compartments. The styling is very nice. But I would have preferred a few more smaller compartments to hold things like mp3 players and other personal electronics. And a dedicated business card holder would be good. Instead I end up cramming many things into two large pouches.
Another improvement would be to put the shoulder strap on swivel hooks, because I seem to spend a lot of time straightening mine out before I sling it on. The shoulder pad is comfortable, though.
Overall I would recommend this bag to someone who isn’t going to carry a lot of gadgets or heavy items around. It’s really not adequate for my daily use, but it’s good for occasional casual jaunts.
