True but may be too bulky cause it will need have something raised to cast something over it. It’s quite dense already this bag but it’s good, I use it daily at the moment

Yeah just gotta be careful with the cables when you charge aswell cause the MacBook is wide so it does make it a bit difficult to charge while using it in that portable mode unless you have a right angled cable for charging. And you’re also right I didn’t realise underneath there was a stretch my mesh just to hold some things aswell underneath. I didn’t see it at the beginning tbh. Messenger let’s say is more informal relaxed bag and crossbody carry for everyday items, while a briefcase is more for professional settings with hand carry, usually constructed to hold documents, files and other work related items. Honestly I think this is actually fine and doesn’t attract too much attention, I’ve taken it out and used it plenty of times and no one really pays much attention. I do like the utility look to it tbh ii do like that style. You could turn this into a backpack if you get the additional straps aswell which is good too. 👍🏻

This bag cannot stand on its own no when it’s in briefcase mode, but with the personal work station as it’s folded out, it does yeah 👍🏻 which you probably know anyways. Hope that helps 🙏🏻

Thanks for the reply, appreciate it
