The Rothco Musette Bag (SKU 2270/2274) features both an adjustable shoulder strap for messenger-style carry and separate adjustable backpack straps. To switch modes, simply adjust the shoulder strap for crossbody or side carry, or use both backpack straps for hands-free carrying. The convertible design lets you adapt on the go—wear it as a messenger bag during your commute, then switch to backpack mode when you need both hands free. All straps are fully adjustable to fit your body and comfort preferences, making it versatile for EDC, travel, or light hiking.

Yes, the main compartment measures 12" H × 12" W × 6" D, which comfortably fits most 13-inch laptops including MacBooks, along with books, chargers, and daily essentials. The 15-liter capacity provides enough room without unnecessary bulk, making it ideal for everyday carry (EDC), work, or school. The side pocket and back pocket (both with snap closures) keep smaller items like phones, wallets, or keys organized and accessible. The unwashed heavyweight cotton canvas provides natural cushioning and water resistance to protect your electronics during commutes or travel.

Rothco's unwashed heavyweight cotton canvas is denser, more durable, and naturally water-resistant compared to regular canvas. The unwashed finish means the fabric retains its natural oils and texture, providing superior weather resistance and a rugged, authentic look that develops character over time. This construction makes the Musette Bag (SKU 2270/2274) more resilient for outdoor use, light hiking, and daily wear. The heavyweight canvas won't easily tear or fray, and it's built for long-lasting dependable use in both urban and outdoor settings.

Absolutely—the compact 12" × 12" × 6" dimensions and 15-liter capacity make the Rothco Musette Bag perfect as an airline personal item. It fits easily under most airplane seats while holding essentials like a laptop, tablet, headphones, snacks, and travel documents. The convertible carry options let you wear it as a messenger bag through security, then switch to backpack mode when navigating terminals. The side and back pockets with snap closures keep boarding passes and IDs accessible. Available in Olive Drab and Black, both priced at $28.99.

The Rothco Heavyweight Canvas Musette Bag offers superior durability, larger capacity (15L vs. typical 5-8L slings), and convertible carry options that sling bags can't match. While sling bags are limited to single-shoulder carry, the Musette converts between messenger and backpack modes for better weight distribution during longer carries. The unwashed heavyweight cotton canvas is more rugged than synthetic sling materials, and the 12" × 12" × 6" main compartment holds laptops and books—not just small EDC items. The military-inspired design provides timeless style at $28.99.
