Utilitarian Bags
There's the most basic, utilitarian, 'Russian' design aesthetic possible in each of these products. For example, the lack of many little subdividing pockets in all of the Courier bags is a real contrast to the complicated inner-spaces of other externally similar bags available elsewhere. Ours, with only a single inner pocket, is the most durable and versatile because of it's simplicity, sewing and materials. One can carry anything from a watermelon to a change of clothes for working out, to the typical books-and-a-lunch, inside one of these bags. The versatility is greater because the bag is simpler. An empty and well-worn courier bag hangs on the closet doorknob by the back door of my place and I grab it and go, filling it with whatever the mission requires. Some days it's groceries. Other times its books and papers. It's never exactly the same cargo twice.

Nobody has reviewed this bag yet?? Let me be the first: I am a long time owner of the Aerostich Courier bag in hi-viz yellow. For a recent trip to eastern Europe, I needed a smaller bag for use as a day bag, carrying a water bottle, food, guide book and extra papers. I purchased the Aerostich Letter Bag for this purpose and was not disappointed. In addition to serving admirably as a day bag, on several occasions this bag also literally saved my ass when I slipped and fell in ice and snow--the bag broke my fall and I was able to continue without injury. Throughout the snow, ice and wet train compartments, the Letter Bag kept my items dry. With the substantial Velcro attached flap I was never worried about the pickpockets on the Budapest subway--it would have been too noisy to try to open the Letter Bag. Now that I've returned, the Letter Bag is the go-to bag for small trips--it even hauled a bottle of wine to a party earlier this week.
