The full-width zippered divider creates two sections, but its shorter length allows small items to move beneath it between sides. The reviewer reports that the Brahmin Theo iPad/Tablet Bag uses genuine cowhide embossed with a crocodile pattern marketed as Melbourne leather. The organizer provides cellphone storage, three leather pen loops, and five card or ID pockets across its front and back walls.
The tablet compartment has thin dense foam padding, and the reviewer fit an iPad mini with either a Smart Cover or slim case. The reviewer found the tablet compartment too tight for a more substantial case, while a caseless iPad 3 fit very snugly.
Reported strengths
- The reviewer says the removable strap is long enough for crossbody wear and adjustable for carrying the bag on the shoulder.
- The front organizer compartment unzips fully to the bag's bottom, while gusseted sides help contain contents when it is completely open.
- The organizer provides cellphone storage, three leather pen loops, and five card or ID pockets across its front and back walls.
Reported trade-offs
- The reviewer could fit a thin cellphone in the flat front pocket, but the tight, ungusseted space would not accommodate a keyring.
- The full-width zippered divider creates two sections, but its shorter length allows small items to move beneath it between sides.
- The reviewer found the tablet compartment too tight for a more substantial case, while a caseless iPad 3 fit very snugly.
