This one is for those of you who find yourselves working remotely and needing to get your tech from A to B. Either that or, like me, you’re curious to see how much someone can fit in an easy-to-carry bag!

Well let’s waste no further time and jump straight into it. This is a list of what I take with me when I’m working away from home.

Knomo Messenger

Let’s start with the bag itself. I’m a sucker for a nice bag and Knomo’s Messenger bag is certainly one of those. I first became aware of Knomo at a refurb sale that I happened to wander past in London over ten years ago now and have loved their brand ever since. I have bought a number of their bag over the years.

The Messenger has been my daily go-to for over five years now. It houses everything I need, protects my technology in one of its many custom-designed pockets and seems to look better the more that it ages.

Unfortunately, they seem to have been out of stock for quite a while now, and I don’t know whether Knomo has stopped making them. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
More information

(As an aside, I love well made bags so if anyone knows any other companies/websites like Knomo, then can you let me know about them in the comments? Thanks very much!)
