All The Kings Men Maxi 17" Laptop Messenger - Runway Model

All the Kings Men's (ATKM's) latest limited edition bags, the Runway Model, feature signage from airport runways. The hand-printed ATKM Runway Model bags are limited to 10 of each design; actual designs are limited only by the number of signs on runways around the world (last count, about two thousand and forty). Inspired by the beauty of the everyday, ATKM Runway Model bags are hand-stamped and individually numbered.

What makes this bag really unique is the shoulder strap, which is an aeroplane seatbelt with a strength indicator of 2500. The bag can be worn on one shoulder or across the body, and with the buckle resting on your upper chest, the bag is very comfortable to use. Each bag has a unique seatbelt tag and hand stamped (unique) number imprinted on the front. All The Kings Men bags are made in Melbourne, Australia so you can be assured of a totally funky and well built bag.

Customer Reviews

• Stylish, practical and generally awesome I have owned this bag for around a year now and have found that it has provided both stability and style to all that it has carried. Unlike many other single-strap bags that I have owned in the past the bag both feels sturdy and comfortable to wear. I have been asked countless times where I purchased the bag and many have stopped to admire and/or have a look at it. Additionally, the bag has proved sturdy for carrying "essentials" (heavy textbooks, iPad etc) both to and from university. The straps (which usually appear to break most frequently on these types of bag) so far show no signs of damage. The bags only real drawback that I have found is it's ability to show off any and all dirt, which is merely irritating rather than an issue. Over all a great bag, which I both enjoy and would recommend to anyone looking for quality, comfort and style.

• Over promised and under delivered Really disappointed with this bag. Colour intensity in reality does not match image depicted.The large numerals are quite faded out. Need to remove center divider to accommodate 17 mac book pro with neoprene sleeve. Biggest disappointment is the strap,whilst looking funky and industrial, it constantly gets twisted meaning that you have to unhinge it and flatten out, the strap is too short for those that like it low slung,seat belt clasp is centered on strap meaning that at full strap extension it sits squarely on top of collar bone, maybe this should have been off centered. I over looked the expensive cost thinking the design elements were well executed, unfortunately they are not. I wouldn't recommend or consider this brand again.

• More style than substance I was bored with the plain messenger bag offerings from the other companies, so I decided to take a punt on this fashionable and expensive bag from ATKM. Unfortunately, I have been somewhat disappointed with the bag, especially considering its relative expense. Although the overall quality is good, its design has several major shortcomings. Firstly (and most importantly) the level of protection offered by the bag is less than some of the other brands. The padding is quite thin and I felt I had to be careful putting the bag down for risk of denting the laptop. For an expensive bag this is unacceptable and shows that the company spent more attention designing the look of the bag than worrying about its functionality. I don't mind paying a price premium for a trendy look, but that should come in addition to being well designed and functional, not instead of. Secondly, the "waterproof" nature of this bag is highly dubious because of two gaping holes on the top left and right of the bag when closed, exposing the corners of the laptop. I would not want to be caught in rain without another level of protection for my laptop. Thirdly, the size of the storage pocket is very small. It is barely enough to fit my laptop charger with extension fitting (a tight squeeze) and (unlike another reviewer claims) will not fit anything else such as a mouse or small external hard drive, which are common accessories needed on the road. If you still insist on buying this bag for the look, you really need an extra level of protection, such as a laptop sleeve. A 17" MacBook Pro will still easily fit in the bag with a sleeve. I bought a BuiltNY sleeve which serves this purpose well, but that brings the total cost to about $300! I'm not too disappointed overall because I wanted the sleeve anyway (for airports where you have to send the laptop through the scanner) and some other bags won't fit a laptop with added sleeve, especially the generously thick BuiltNY sleeves. Unlike some other brands I think the ATKM bags were designed to accommodate a sleeve, but a bit of extra protection without a sleeve would have been good. Lastly I got the yellow "Runway" version and as some other people have posted the canvas seems to discolour very quickly and easily, almost as if it was designed to. So if you think this will bother you I'd recommend getting one of the darker colours. The yellow version is also not as bright and vibrant in colour as the pictures depict.
