<p>You may have seen this messenger bag hanging from the shoulder of, oh, I don’t know, freaking <strong>Jack Bauer</strong>. That’s right, this is the same bag used in the TV series 24. And now it’s serving the nation in a far more important way: <em>carrying your junk.</em></p>
<p>More than big enough to handle several thick books, notepads, Trapper Keepers, Troll Dolls, and maybe even a few slap bracelets, this bag is guaranteed not to rip open and drop your precious cargo down those pesky monkey holes which seem to pop up randomly in the desert.</p>
<ul>
<li>16″ × 11″ × 5″ (this is the ‘official’ size, but it’s huge and can carry items 2" larger in any given dimension, however the zipper is only 16" wide)</li>
<li>Unwashed heavyweight canvas (each bag weighs around 30 oz)</li>
<li><strong>Zippers and pouches galore!</strong>
<ul>
<li>In addition to the main flap, the Main compartment closes with a zipper</li>
<li>Two 6″×8″ zipper-seal pouches in the front</li>
<li>Two 6″×8″ button-seal pouches on each side</li>
<li>One 14″×8″ velcro-seal pouch on the back (good for folders and notebooks)</li>
<li>One 8″×6″ zipper-seal pouch on the inside of the main compartment</li>
</ul></li>
<li>Brass hardware (high-quality stuff — no plastic buckles here)</li>
<li>2" wide adjustable shoulder strap</li>
</ul>
<p>The bags themselves are awesome, but we’ve also made several customizations which make them even more special:</p>
<ul>
<li>We’ve embroidered a 5.5" wide Escargo Express <strong>logo</strong> (designed by Jon Kay) on the flap of each bag.</li>
<li>We’ve customized each bag by hand, removing extraneous velcro/canvas/stitching where the EE logo has been embroidered. For those of you who love the relative security of weak velcro, however, we’re including an adhesive velcro strip with each bag. It will stick on its own, but if you’re going to be using it regularly we recommend sewing it in!</li>
<li>Each bag comes with an additional EE <strong>patch</strong> that you can sew or iron onto your bag (though we recommend sewing).</li>
<li>We’ve also designed a custom hangtag for each bag! This is a classy establishment.</li>
</ul>
<p>These bags are manufactured by Rapid Dominance, and even though we love the old Rothco bags, we’re even happier with these. They’ve got thicker and slightly heavier canvas, better hardware, more pockets, and in general are just good-looking, ultra-sturdy bags.</p>
<p>Most importantly, you can use the main flap to hold all the pins/patches you accumulate from our other merchandise :D</p>
