Looking for a nice leather shoulder bag that's capable of fitting in an A3 sketch pad and assorted pens etc - can't find anything online other than the obvious art folders or shoulder bags that are all too small.
Ta.
Surely a large messenger bag will be big enough
Even ones for 17'' laptops don't seem quite big enough....
"screen size" of an A3 pad would be over 20 inches
Well, they won't be. For a laptop bag to fit A3 it'd need to be for, what, a 21" laptop?
I can't help think it's a big ask, I don't think there's much call for a shoulder bag that big except in specialist cases such as yours. Is there nothing art-specific out there (ie, look at art suppliers rather than bag suppliers perhaps)?
Well, they won't be. For a laptop bag to fit A3 it'd need to be for, what, a 21" laptop?
Well, yeah my point not very well made - the messenger bags I have seen (at least the nice leather ones) are only designed to take laptops.
Hmmm I didn't think this would be hard!
I used to carry an A3 portfolio in a large Timbuk2 bag.
Otherwise something from Ally Capellino?

Audi shop ? 🙂
Not leather, and they're in Aus but how about something like [url= https://www.eckersleys.com.au/products/design/presentation/carry/artlogic-mega-portfolio-acp400 ]this[/url]?
Howwwwwwwwww muuuuuuuuuuuuccchhhhhh!
I was willing to spend around £100/£150 but bloody hell!
continuing with the spendy approach...
You'll need a cap and handlebar 'tache though
nice leather
for, what, a 21" laptop?
around £100/£150
😆 away with you and spend the afternoon on ebay/alibaba then
I got a lovely 13'' laptop bag for £50 in full leather.
Fair enough, it was TK MAxx, but £600!
"mine" are half that price
... and a 21 inch laptop (and hence corresponding bag) is pretty much non-existent, innit. Best of luck though
I didn't think [url= http://www.mattfothergill.com/Product/135/A3+Landscape+Wilde+Bag+Tab+Closure ]The Matt Fothergill one[/url] was too expensive for what it is.
They've got some quite nice bags on there actually.

There you go lot less then £600 as well. 😀
I think I have a Crumpler that's big enough. Can't remember what the model name is but I suppose it's on their web site?
Learn to draw smaller?
No... wait.
Guiletine and two a4 bags?
plus another little one for some sellotape ?Guiletine and two a4 bags?
Here's an A1 bag with sleeve for a laptop too, and a natty red lining too.

Patagonia Critical Mass messenger variant should be big enough - not leather though.
Arty..Yes
Good with your hands ?

Edit : Dammit, now I want to make one ( I have an old massive settee that is made of great antalope leather, thats due for the tip)
Sod it, you had to post that didn't you.
I've only just got rid of a brown leather sofa a couple of weeks ago, would have been perfect for that 🙁
In fact I could have set up a whole cottage industry, the amount of leather in it.
