The black lining on the bottom of the front flap is reflective. At 01:03, the strap was designed to keep your bag on your back when riding. I guess you can use it to hold your keys but theres another strap with a clip inside the bag made to hold your keys. Its near the pencil/pen holder.
@foundede yea its a huge design flaw. I wrapped the excess strap around and then underneath the clip and havent had a problem since.
great review. I just got this bag in the mail and will go as far as to say it's just about as good as a timbuk bag. very comfortable on the shoulder, great faux fur linings for cell phone pocket and laptop sleeve, and LOTS of pockets to store stuff. The main pocket can be spread to about 4 inches in width so storing stuff shouldn't be a problem at all. easily fit my physics and chem textbook along with 2 notebooks. I hope my input helps as well :]
@justintzou Any problems yet with the alligator clip on the side unexpectedly releasing while carrying your load? I've read that it's a problem with this bag design.
@randomrazr The incase backpack that i have is smaller then the messenger bag, I mean for books and that kind of stuff. Watch my incase backpack review.
@randomrazr Yes it's there largest backpack. I can fit about 2 or 3 text books in the backpack and about 3 or 4 in the messenger bag. I hope this helps you with deciding!

@heavyhitter504 It's a 15" MacBook Pro and the back fits up to that size only as far as I know.
