Orion Messenger Bag

I got myself one of these flashy messenger bags, and am very happy with it.

One issue I have is that I was promised side pouches (for perhaps a water bottle or something) but can't find them. I read a review saying they're tucked away somewhere.

Anyone been able to find them that cna direct me, or have I got the none side pouch version?

There is a zipper pouch on the front behind the alienware logo. The zipper pulls are hidden. Then there are a number of zippered compartments in the main section of the bag.

 

I have one and there are none. I just did a search and it seems there is 2 versions of the bag.

 

umm. i have two netting areas on the sides (one of each side) that look liek they could hold water. right behind them is a zippered compartment. mine are impossible to miss... maybe they have different models?

 

Is this the one you got? If yes, I seem can't understand how will the M15x fit on that bag

AW M15x ................. Size ---- 14.9" x 12.2" x 1.9
Orion messenger bag - Capacity 16.5" x 11.5" x 2"

 

I got a messenger bag also and no side pouches or holders of any type. It also broke after 5 months of heavy usage (I carry a lot of paper work with it, besides the M17x)

 

Seem Orion messenger/backpack not as durable as I'm expecting it to be

Anyone got a better suggestion for a messenger/backpack for the M15x?

 

Wow you must carry a truckload if a backpack broke from paperweight

The backpack

*points down two lines*

 

I carry around 16kg (including the ~6kg laptop+charger) in the bag. And yes the messenger bag did break but I'm using the backpack now which seems ok (at least until now).

 

16kg!!! And you did that in a shoulder bag? Either you have serious shoulder problems now or all you do all day is pull ups and have monster shoulders

Sorry for threadjacking

 

I rarely have it on my shoulder couse I go everywhere by car but I need all the paperwork for my office and I travel a lot.

 

Here are some possibilities:

For 15"

Victorinox Swiss Army - Functional and progressive Victorinox Swiss Army 15"" Laptop Business and Travel Gear and luggage feature sophisticated engineering and thoughtful design. The ulitmate travel companion.

For 17"

Victorinox Swiss Army - Functional and progressive Victorinox Swiss Army 17"" Laptop Business and Travel Gear and luggage feature sophisticated engineering and thoughtful design. The ulitmate travel companion.

 

It fits up to the M17x, I use one and carry my M17x back and forth from work daily.

 

Thanks for the heads up and for sending me back on the fence as well (I was about to order the backpack when I saw post last night)

Messenger? Backpack?

Cheers

 

well I had my ORION back Pack for just over 6 months, and it looks like I will have to replace it soon, the bottom of the back pack has worn already, the material seems quite thin in this area.

 

Yeah those dimensions are outright wrong. I have that bag and it's enormous, there's more than enough room for my m15x in pretty much every direction. It could easily hold a 15 AND 17.

 

Same as what happened to my orion messenger bag. Hope the backpack will last longer.

 

some do, some don't HERE
