Made from highly durable ripstop polyester, our Slim iPad Tablet Messenger Bag is built to keep your tech safe and secure while you, or that special someone, is on the move. A padded interior and an adjustable strap make it the perfect size for holding a tablet, an e-reader or a netbook, and it gives that screen the protection it needs the moment it leaves the house.
There is extra storage inside for books or notepads and pens for writing, a zippered pocket outside, and a sturdy plastic clip to keep everything closed and secure. This little bag really does have a little bit of everything to help keep you on the go.
It is made of modern rip-stop 600d polyester, and the simple, lightweight sling is just big enough to hold an iPad or tablet and a book, with foam padded around for protection. A phone pocket and a pen loop sit inside the open pocket under the flap, and the modern plastic buckle at the bottom helps keep items secure. It is a great piece for carrying around to a party, a hang-out or church, and it sits on the shoulder without weighing anyone down.
What turns a bag into a gift is the embroidery. HansonEllis has been personalizing gifts in-house since 1999, and a first name, a set of initials or a short two-line message is stitched straight into the ripstop face in colored thread, so the bag is unmistakably theirs on a crowded train, in a lecture hall or on a church pew. Ten characters fit on each of two lines, which is room for a name and a year, or a short line such as "On The Go".
One owner said the quality is good and the embroidery very nice, and that it holds her iPad with space in the front pocket for a charger and her glasses. Another keeps hers by the door and said, simply, that she does not forget anymore.
This Slim iPad Tablet Messenger Bag makes a perfect gift for someone special, a loved family member, or even a great gift for yourself. Hearty and durable, this little bag is just asking to be brought home today.
Add your embroidery text above, choose your quantity, and send them out the door with everything in one place.

Which one should I choose
Shoppers usually weigh this slim sling against a bigger laptop bag or a plain, unmarked tablet case.
| On The Go Durable Slim Light Weight iPad Tablet Messenger Bag | Choose it when the load is a tablet, a book and the small stuff: rip-stop 600d polyester, foam padding, a phone pocket and pen loop, and a name embroidered on the front. |
|---|---|
| A full-size laptop messenger bag | Choose that when a 15-inch laptop, files and a power brick have to travel; this bag is deliberately slim and light. |
| A plain tablet sleeve or case | Choose that for protection alone; it has no strap, no pockets for a charger and glasses, and no embroidered name to make it theirs. |
For everyday carry that stays light and comes back to its owner because the name is stitched on it, the Slim iPad Tablet Messenger Bag is the pick.
