scott not scot hehe...i've got nothing against any of the more well known bag companies...pac especially have set the benchmark for messenger bags....but i just think a lot of the companies don't utilise the vast space their bags have that well.....and whats with all the 'options'....half of them are things that EVERY bag needs,like x-straps,anti sway straps,back padding,compression straps.....stop making them 'options' just so you can charge more for the bags...it makes the stock bag price misleading,cos by the time you add all the things you need....it's added another £100 to the price.....aaahhhh......and relax....sorry bout the rant....:)
I totally agree with you about utilising space. I've been considering getting someone make me a divider thing with pockets to go in my PAC.
Backpadding and anti-sway straps should definitely be standard. I wish my PAC had compression straps, too. Ahh well it's not like I'm a courier anyway! I've noticed on my PAC it looks pretty upgradeable anyway, like it's got 4 plastic-loop rings on the bottom corners of the bag (for the cross-strap to attach, and reflective tails), which look like you could clip together to compress it down a bit.
