Well... since I've half given up my search for the ultimate man bag and there's some forum traffic about secure bags, shoulder straps, etc., I figured I might as well make my wish to Santa (aka Tom).
The Ultimate Cafe Bag would:
- be a little smaller than the current large size one in height and depth, but a little thicker to accommodate bulkier items such as dSLR cameras, etc.
- have a top zipper to make it a little more secure and add some more water resistance, in addition to the buckle flap
- have the same optional waist strap attachments
- have cut/slash protection when traveling in not-so-nice areas
- have an external water bottle carrier; at least a mesh, but preferably like the one on the ID or the Buzz; it be even better if the carrier was detachable in some way
- have a removable or at least Absolute Shoulder Strap option
- come in a great colour and fabric (microfibre?) so that it could double as a man bag or dress up bag when in business attire, and as a casual bag for around-the-town
- come with a removable pouch that could fasten onto the strap for an iPod, cell phone, GPS, etc.
- come with a built-in money attractor that sucks up loose change and dollar bills within a 100 m radius (okay, just kidding... ;-)
