The single strap shoulder bag is a design seen throughout history on the shoulder
of almost any type of messenger, whether it be Pony Express, postmen, or bicycle messengers. The messenger bag of today finds
its roots in the 1970s bicycle messenger companies who purchased one color per company as identifiers of a sort. Until the
1980s, NYC was the sole bastien of messenger bags but soon the silhouette spread. Today, you find messenger bags for many
walks of life from leather business cases from Victorinox to funky camera bags from Crumpler. Traditional messenger bag companies
like Manhattan Portage and Timbuk2 continue to provide students and messengers alike with interesting yet functional product.
