Each one is ideal for holding a 7-inch tablet ( iPad mini, Nexus 7, Kindle Fire HD, etc.), or one of those "paper notebook things" that Luddites still swear by. Perhaps the nicest addition to the Brixton compared to the Union Street are the two tall pockets along the front. Not surprisingly, a 13-inch MacBook Air fit in there with a bit of wiggle room to spare.

That said, we were able to squeeze our non-Retina 15-inch MacBook Pro into the compartment sans issue, and those with slimmer Ultrabooks or a 15-inch Retina MBP should see practically no resistance at all. The Brixton Leather is a hair smaller than the Union Street, as it's designed to hold only a 13-inch laptop. It's just something to keep in mind - you wouldn't want to use this as your day pack for an hour-long hike. It's not a dealbreaker by any means, and those who only have to walk short distances before finding a subway floor to rest it on won't mind a bit. Even empty, there's no mistaking that you're hauling something around. Compared to cloth bags with no rigidity whatsoever, this bag is going to be a far bigger burden on the wearer. Fine Italian leather is spectacular, but it's heavy. In practice, both worked fine, but we ended up preferring the latter approach. The strap can be retracted for those who prefer the "over the single shoulder" look, or let out for the "toss it across my back" approach. The carry strap contains a heavily padded, slidable portion that makes hauling a load that much easier, and you can clip things down with the two metal clasps on the front. The leather is soft enough to draw oohs and aahs from those who caress it, but stiff enough to retain its shape when you plop it on the ground. It's too pretty to take out into bad weather, but should bad weather find you, at least you can dash knowing your contents are protected. Much like the company's other bags, this one too sheds water like a champ. The Italian tanned leather is coated with a light, practically invisible wax, which proves extraordinarily useful when schlepping through the rain. Now that we're beyond that, it's worth pointing out that there is precisely nothing about the Brixton Leather that isn't top-shelf. For those in a less bombastic role, you'll need an awful lot of personal warm-and-fuzzy to justify the $419 MSRP. If you're a highfalutin city dweller that needs to nail the first impression on a daily basis, you'll understand the value in spending more on a bag that exudes style. This is why you spend more - significantly more - on an Ona bag. You can disable notifications at any time in your settings menu.
