This model is almost a perfect hit. A slightly larger size would be useful, as an A4 folder barely fits. Sure, you can choose the larger version of this bag, but that one is already too big—there's something missing between these two sizes. Another downside is the flap—it's not really clear what to keep there, because when you open the bag, things from the flap move around and end up at the edges. Overall, I am satisfied with the purchase, but it's good to be aware of these things before making a decision.

I already own several products from Helikon, and this bag, just like the previous ones, makes a huge impression on me. Very solid workmanship and excellent quality. The bag is superbly designed and very well thought out. It works perfectly as a work bag for everyday use—it fits everything I need, while being neat and compact. It easily holds A4 documents and all the necessary equipment. I really like the option to attach organizers, which allows you to easily adapt the bag to your own needs and use it with other products, such as backpacks with this system. I give Helikon a 5+. The store also deserves praise for the express order fulfillment.

Great bag, nice gray color. Very comfortable, and the adjustable Velcro strap works perfectly and nothing dangles. Inside there are only large pockets, so a separate Velcro pocket for storing small things like pens or pocket knives would be useful. Very solid workmanship.
-
I already have quite a few Helikon products and this bag also turned out to be very high quality, like everything from this company. It’s comfortable and practical. I highly recommend it :D
-
The bag is very spacious and made of durable materials. The wide shoulder strap provides comfort even with a heavy load, and the short handle makes it easy to pull the bag out of the car. Very well designed and perfect for everyday use.
-
This is exactly the kind of bag I needed. It fits everything I usually take on business trips: a Lenovo t495s laptop, a 10-inch tablet, a 4-in-1 charger, a power bank, large headphones, and there's still room for small items. I purchased additional Velcro inserts, and this solution is great—if I need to take only certain items, I take out the right module, e.g., with chargers or documents. The bag is very spacious and has plenty of pockets, even without Velcro extensions.
-
As always with Helikon, the quality of workmanship is top-notch. The practicality is exceptionally well thought out—I use this bag daily for work and it works great. An additional advantage is the possibility of personalization thanks to extra modules of the Versatile Insert System. I’m very satisfied.
-
A very nice bag, in my opinion the best product from this company. The larger version is also fantastic. I definitely recommend the purchase to everyone, it’s really worth it.
-
A good and comfortable bag for everyday use – not too small, not too large, carefully sewn with well-thought-out compartments. The MacBook Air 13 fits perfectly. The wide strap is very comfortable, even when the bag is full. I also bought a matching wallet and phone pouch.
-
The bag has been very well designed. Previously, I used a Direct Action messenger bag, but this one wins in terms of capacity. Even though DA is a great bag, I missed space in the main compartment for larger items when the side pockets were full. This bag does not have that problem. I moved all my necessary things to it and still have plenty of free space left. Additionally, the bag adjusts its size to the contents—it stretches when heavily loaded, and compresses when carrying fewer items.
-
Great city bag, in my opinion better than the Satchel. Excellent Helikon quality, practical for everyday use, though a bit pricey.
-
Great bag. Excellent workmanship and well thought-out details. Highly recommend.
-
The bag is made to a very high standard. The quality and durability are excellent. The only downside is that you can really pack a lot of things into it, so then you have to carry them.
-
This is already my third bag from this line – one large and two medium. The bags are great, it's a shame you can only give five stars. I recommend it!
-
The bag is very solidly made, I managed to fit everything I need for work in it. If you have a larger laptop, it's better to choose the Large version.
