A messenger bag is a type of satchel with a strap that is worn over one shoulder and across the chest and the bag sits on the lower back. It usually has a flap over the front of the bag which is lifted up to reveal the compartments inside. These compartments can be zippered. The bags are often carried by bicycle messengers or couriers but have also become a modern fashion item.

The dickies messenger bag is manufactured by Williamson-Dickie, an American company, with its head office in Fort Worth, Texas. The company is more commonly referred to as “Dickies”. Its main product is hard, wearing clothing for men, women and children mainly for work and school.

Just like Dickies durable clothing, the Dickies messenger bag is well constructed and sturdy. The bags are made of a tough, water resistant fabric that can take a lot of wear and tear. These bags can be used for many things. One of the most common uses for the Dickies messenger bag is as a school bag. They are just the right size for holding school books and all the other things that school kids have in their bags. There is also a pocket on the side of the bag for a cell phone.

By far the most popular Dickies messenger bag for this purpose is the 614 basic messenger bag. This bag has a front zippered flap, a rubber grip on the shoulder strap, side pockets, and two pockets inside. There is also a handle on the top if it needs to be carried without using the shoulder strap. This bag comes in many colors. You can choose the solid basic colors, bright colors, checks, and way out funky patterns – be as conservative or crazy as you like! A Dickies messenger bag can definitely be a fashion accessory! These bags are also relatively inexpensive – so maybe you can have more than one to go with different outfits.

There is also a Dickies messenger bag specifically designed for carrying laptop computers. This bag has padded compartments to keep laptops safe. It will hold laptops up to 15.4”. The bag is also available in many colours – from basic black to bright pink with polka dots!

A Dickies messenger bag can be used for travel. What an ideal item to use as carry on baggage for a flight. It can carry everything you need. If you are just going away overnight it will hold all the clothes and accessories you will want. It will easily fit under the seat or in the overhead compartment.

For many people, a Dickies messenger bag has replaced the more conventional handbag. It will hold much more and can be used by both women and men.  A Dickies messenger bag is easy and comfortable to carry. It could even be used by mothers of young children to carry all the items needed when going out with a baby.

A Dickies messenger bag is a very practical and versatile piece of equipment. It is no wonder it has become an essential part of the modern lifestyle.

I like the Dickies one better.
Shuddap! I expect ACTUAL answers, not half-assed insults, damn it. >.>

Yak Pak is like, a Hot Topic brand. I searched on google for ‘Dickies Checkered Messenger Bag’ and went to shopping results and found a few. I’m not sure why the yak pak comes up for your search but could be because they’re tagged with ‘checkered messenger bag’

I want stores that I can go to IRL. (Hot Topic, Tilly’s, Kohls, etc.)

Hope these help!

i’m trying to decide what i want this year, i’ve used messenger bags in the past, but i think a backpack might be easier to carry around, my shoulder was sore all year..

the backpacks i really like are the dickies… so yeah.

thanks for all the opinnions.

details: i’m short, obviously i’m a girl, i’m 15; and i will also be a sophmore this year with quite a few advanced classes and electives.
see i’m into MY fashion which isn’t preppy and slutty, no thank you to rolling backpacks, i actually think they are prohibited on our campus, it’s just that last year i had a messenger and it really hurt some times…i just haven’t decided what i want yet.

definitely backpack then b/c books will be balanced between your shoulders… Dickies and Jansport has nice colours this year…

but please don’t answer with:

-old navy
-abercrombie/hollister/aeropostale/american eagle/hot topic
-torrid
-fred flare
-ebay
-journeys
- or dickies.
