I'm looking for a cheap (in price) messenger bag that has a pocket about the size of my iPhone (a bit larger cause I have the Otterbox Defender on it). I have one currently, but I got it from a friend, so it's a bit warn.
I don't want a stiff one. I want it to be saggy and baggy. Real hippie-ish, ya know? =]
I have never seen any in the stores. We have Wal Mart, Target, Macy's, JC Penney, etc.
Thanks ya'll!

Dickie's makes floppy bags (no dirty jokes please)

I carry a Brooklyn Industries bag when i've got my laptop, but its kinda bulky at times.

Hmm. That Dickies looks firmer than the one I currently have. I'll take a snapshot of my current bag and upload it when I get home tomorrow.
I know I'm picky! Sorry!

There are so many opportunities in this thread!
However, I will exercise self-control this once...

Haha two of my current topics have room for inuendos. It's distracting from the actual topic. :(

Here's the one I currently have:

I tried posting this image from my iPhone. Got it uploaded to Flickr (thanks to ColorSplash) via my iPhone, but couldn't figure out how to get it here on it. Anyone know?
But Ya... That bag is super floppy, which I love! I'm holding it up in the picture, and the flap is pulled up. But it's a bit warn. Was hoping to maybe find one in a different colour and in better shape. Anyways, I guess I might just keep it. I just don't like hand-me-downs! Haha.

Though not cheap, Timbuk2 makes the hands down, best messenger bags out there. It has a pocket on the inside front that will fit an otterbox, or you can grab a pouch for the strap that they sell called a Two-way that will fit it as well.

True story....There was 2 guys that walked into a bar, one guy was carrying a floppy bag.... and the guy at the bar said..........[edited by Chris]
