Baggallini Messenger Bagg By kdtravieso on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
We purchased the Baggallini Messenger bag to use on our Disneyworld family vacation. My husband and I had been debating what to buy because it would be something that we would both carry. I personally didn't want to carry a typical two shoulder harness backback and my husband did not want anything that appeared "girlie". This bag turned out to be the perfect solution.
The Baggallini Messenger bag was stylish enough for me and functional enough for my husband. We chose to go with the basic black so that it has a more traditional backpack look for my husband to carry. The bags has lots of compartments to hold various items and is very lightweight. I really like the fact that the cell phone compartment is in the strap and lays directly on your chest. This is very helpful if you want to keep you phone on silent vibrate. It made it very easy to "feel" the phone ring.
The bag also has mesh compartments and is water resistent. This helped when we got caught in the rain. Our stuff in the bag was not affected or wet after the rain. We were more that able to pack everything that we needed for a day at the parks without overfilling the bag.
My mom was liked the bag so much that she bought one as well. We have now used the bag when we go on hikes, as our carry-on on the airplane and as a toy bag for trips in the car. I strongly recommend this bag as a good compromise on fashion and function.

This sounds like a great unisex bag! What a great price for it too!!!!!
My wife has one of these and likes it. The only thing I don't like about it is the strap doesn't stay in place too well.
I have always heard eveyone on the Dis boards raving about this bag. It sounds like the perfect bag for our next Disney vacation.
I bought a baggalinni to us on my last Disney trip too & it was fabulous. Everything I needed for the day was in easy reach and it even had a spot to hold my water bottle. I also liked that it was easy to swing around to my front for when I was riding rides.
This sounds lik a great bag to share with a husband! Mine is always whining how he doesn't want to carry anything that looks like a 'man-purse', lol, so this would be perfect!
I'll have to check out this ebag place. This sounds like just what we need for Disney and Busch Gardens.
Ebag is pretty good . I got a backpack from them.
I could use a nice all around bag--especially as a carry-on piece for traveling. I'll check it out, thanks!
I just bought one of these for disney and can't wait to try it I have heard so many good things about it.
This really sounds like a terrific bag, especially for trips. It's hard to find a good bag that will hold everything. Thanks for the information!
