Mr. Jackson proudly showed me his bag – a gear pouch from SFbags.com. Browsing SFbags’s site, you’ll find the ubiquitous black nylon styles, but also an exceedingly handsome model (did you just get chills after reading those three words? I did…) called the MuzettoMuzetto courtesy of sfbags.com (See? It’s even Italian like Fabio.) What is consistent throughout SFbags’ line is that all their products are well-designed, well-made, and smart (I like my bags the way I like my men – leathery, handsome and smart. Okay, maybe not leathery, but I am a sucker for smart.)

The Muzetto is a wonderful bag that I got this past January to take to Macworld with me, and I have fallen in love with it. It is a vertically oriented bag, which helps keep it from banging around your knees like a big messenger bag, plus I think it just looks nicer. The outside is covered with a beautiful brown leather, and the main compartments close with a large flap. There is no closing mechanism like a clip or a magnet, but the flap is substantive enough to keep all your goodies safe and sound, while keeping the bag attractive and easy to access. The underside of the flap and the front of the bag are made of a nylon material of which you can change the color. I went with the green version, but it is available in several other colors, such as red, black, and pine. This bag is designed to be flexible enough to be used with, or without a laptop, so the main laptop compartment has little in the way of padding or cushioning.

WaterField Designs is announcing a new vertical messenger bag for the iPad called the Muzetto Outback, a waxed canvas version of the existing Muzetto line. The company makes the bag in a variety of sizes entirely in San Francisco, and the Personal size ($149) or 10-inch Portable size ($159) are aimed at tablets like the iPad (any version). The bag comes in a dark brown style that the company says "gains character over time" and features a back pocket and several interior pockets in addition to the protected main compartment. The bag also comes with an adjustable and removable shoulder strap. The Personal size is ideal for a "naked" or extra-thin cased iPad and accessories, while the 10-inch Portable size can accommodate a cased iPad and accessories. The company also makes versions for the 11.6-inch MacBook Air, as well as 13- and 15-inch notebooks. The Muzetto Outback will ship beginning March 26th.

The Muzetto Outback is a vertical messenger bag with one main compartment to hold the iPad, a back pocket for easy-to-retrieve paperwork, a pocket under the flap, a zippered interior pocket for stashing cash, and an adjustable strap. A gold liner lights up the interior making it easy to see contents. To reduce shoulder and back fatigue, a removable, shoulder pad with a gripping underside keeps the strap firmly in place. The bag's flap length and angled sides add to a svelte look. The Outback's urban rustic style complements anything from casual work outfits to well-worn hiking boots. Personalization options include six accent color choices and five sizes: the Personal Size for daily necessities including a wallet, cell-phone, digital camera, and a 'naked' iPad or an iPad in a minimalist case; the 10-inch Portable Size for the iPad within a protective case.
