The Osprey Flap Jack: Geek tested and approved.
Osprey Flapjack courier
The uber-Mac aficionados at the popular Cult Of Mac blog have given the Osprey Flap Jack courier a 5-star rating. The author, Eli Milchman, is a longtime courier user and calls the Flap Jack the most stable, comfortable, and light “bike-bag” he’s ever used. Big enough to house a 15” Mac laptop, the Flap Jack also has plenty of storage and smart features like the drawstring gasket to protect your goods (…your Mac, duh!) from water, dust, or any other CPU killers.
Here’s a quick summation from Cult of Mac: Osprey’s bags are are so superbly designed, space-agey and just plain ahead of their time, I’ve often suspected that their designers are escapees from the aerospace industry. The Flap Jack does nothing to diminish my suspicions. Like most of Osprey’s creations, the Flap Jack is very light, feathery to the point of having made me wonder about the bag’s sturdiness — but after a month of heavy use, the Flap Jack is yet to show any signs of wear. The exterior is treated with a water-repellent finish that did a great job of shedding water through a light sprinkling; pity the bag isn’t waterproof though. Read the full review here.
