I received my Hee-Goer bag this evening and after playing around with it for while, I believe this may be the best laptop bag I’ve every owned. However, there are a few things I think could have made it better.

The Crimson with red lining on the outside with the yellow interior compartment sections is very USC but I think it’s quite stylish.

First off, I just want to mention the quality of materials used. I wont get into the specifics as you can find that on the Crumpler website, but the straps and zippers seem quite sturdy and it looks like it can take a beating. It may be because it’s still new, but it feels somewhat rough to the touch. I’m sure that’s just temporary.

Also, Crumpler states that this bag is for those with 12″ laptop screens, mainly the macbook. I have a 15.4″ Sony Vaio that fits snug into the laptop compartment, so I wouldn’t worry too much if you have a 15″ laptop.
There’s also a boatload of pockets and zippered areas to store just about anything! I was able to fit a textbook and a few notebooks into it as well, not to mention the random pens and whatnot I tossed in there.

The ‘third leg’ as Crumpler calls it is extremely helpful and comfortable! It felt as if I was wearing a backpack when I had the third leg secured.

Now, here’s what I didn’t like.

There’s no handle on top, so therefore you can only have it strapped over your shoulder therefore not be able carry it like a briefcase.

Also, the flap that goes over the bag is not quite as wide as the bag itself. There’s a 1″ gap on each end which may allow rain or snow to get into your bag. I can imagine it’d be different if you have the bag fully packed, but I have not done this yet.

There’s also a zippered compartment on the inside flap as well, however the zipper is at the bottom so if you open it while you have the bag on you, whatever you have in there will most likely fall out.

One last thing I wanted to point out, I purchased this bag from Amazon for $60 instead of the current listing price ($130). I am not sure how/why this occurred, but I found it interesting that the price went up to $130 the day after I purchased it (sorry!). Anyways, I would definitely recommend this bag as it’s my best friend right now. Would I have bought this if it was listed for $130? Maybe not, but it’s up to you how you wish to spend your money.
