The Patagonia Half Mass Bag holds busy lives together. Built for bike commuters and sized for a day's worth of gear, it has padding on the backside and along the contoured base to protect the contents and provide structure. Inside, a padded computer sleeve cradles a 17-inch or smaller laptop safely off the ground. The main compartment features a drop pocket that secures with a hook-and-loop tab, a mesh pocket, a padded electronics pocket, pen sleeves and a secure zippered pocket. The cover flap overlaps the sides of the bag to block rain; its pocket closes with a water-resistant zipper. The external side pocket stows a cell phone, power cords or water bottle. The bag's no-slip shoulder strap is fully adjustable, and the waist strap stows away. With a topside carrying handle, a reflective panel for visibility at night and a bike-light mount. Made of 600-denier 100% recycled polyester with a polyurethane coating and a Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish.

Customer Reviews for the Half Patagonia Mass Bag

apple - September 9, 2011

great everyday multi-purpose bag
I have the critical mass and half mass, both of which are great. The half mass bag has room for my work stuff, after work hiking/outdoor gear, and my dog's stuff, all in a size that won't hurt my back carrying. If you have a lot of days belongings plus a laptop, I'd go for the critical mass bag, but if it's just a days things then the half mass is big enough. Both great purchases and definitely worth the money!

excellent messenger/laptop bag!
I purchased the Half Mass bag in Fusion Sunset (color) and recently traveled with it as my carry-on, filled with my laptop and other stuff. This bag is fantastic...love the way it looks, the generous cushioning on the strap, the adjustability of the straps, and the optional waist/hip strap that can be used when the bag is extra heavy (in the airport between flights, it helps!). So far, I've found this bag to be quite durable, good-looking, and well worth the money. Way to go once again, Patagonia!
