Excellent fit and finish. Very stiff, will require a lot of breaking in. But fantastic all the same.
Thanks for reviewing Dylan! we're happy you're liking the bag so far - it should definitely soften up with use.

The quality of the bag is second to none. The bag is plenty big enough for my laptop, charger and mouse. With the attached shoulder strap it is the perfect bag
Love to hear that the bag is proving quality, as well as roomy. Thanks so much for the review.

It's a fantastic daily bag that fits all my bits and bobs for going out and about. It's stylish and rugged that I'm not worried about anything going missing or breaking off and I get constant compliments on all my Jack Stillman gear. Its big enough to carry my massive samsung tablet safely and with protection and I absolutely love that I can add more patches to the ends with the Molle tabs.
Thanks so much Damien! keeping all your bits and bobs safe and also being stylish and reliable is what The commodore was made for.

Have now used it on two business trips. It is very well made and big enough for my needs.

There is something special about this bag! It is well made, has a great design, and you can tell will last. I love it.

This is the second bag I own from Jack Stillman. The first bag was supposed to have been a Christmas present from my Mum. She gave it to me a few days before her death. That bag is incredible, and will be cherished forever. That inspired me to purchase a bag that can use for work as it easily fits my laptop, iPad, and water bottle. Also has a key holder, which is fantastic and is easy to use. I also love to travel, so this bag along with the smaller messenger will be fantastic. I wish had these bags sooner.

I recently picked up a Commodore Messenger Bag, KP-001 pouch, and some MOLLE tabs from Jack Stillman and I’m so impressed with all three. The Commodore bag is functional and looks great, it has a solid build and is well-designed making it perfect for daily use. The pouch is a handy little addition – ideal for keeping cables and power bank organised. Everything feels well-made and thoughtfully designed, and I’ll be coming back for more. Highly recommend!
A
Great product, holds all my gear with room for more when needed, good looks without being flashy, should last a very long time.

This is my second Stillman bag.. and I love it! Just a little bigger than before, it now easily fits A4 size books and has lots of other storage. It is equally at home when I ride my motorcycle, or drive to a business meeting, or just use it when I go out for the day and need to carry $hit! The colour is spot-on and the leather adds a touch of class (and durability)!

This is my third bag from Jack Stillman, and I could not be happier. I went for a larger bag to make sure I could fit in all my bits and pieces. The bag is stylish, very well made, and high quality. I get comments on it all of the time especially with the leather edging. I especially like the handle on the top, this was a great improvement from the previous version. I look forward the breaking it in further and seeing it mature in the coming months. Thanks again Jarrod and team. 😁

Received my bag. The quality is exceptional. However I'm doomed to never have nice things, as my dog decided to chew on one of the straps the actual day it arrived. They are right about one thing, this bag is like a pair of RM Williams boots, you'll have it for 20+ years and the only aging that will happen will be to tell a story. Great Australian business, becoming iconic.

I bought this bag and another a while earlier. Both service experiences have been outstanding and the bags are excellent. Cannot recommend Jack Stillman more highly. Keep up the good work.

I gave this bag to my husband for his birthday and he loves it. It has replaced nd old computer bag that used to go everywhere with him.
The you lady who served us was very helpful and nothing was too much.
