My messenger bag has been through the ringer. It’s far from polished. There’s coffee stains, missing buckles, and a mess of disorganized gear inside.

I need an upgrade.

Here are the top 3 bags from Alchemy Goods that will give me a more polished look for my commuter lifestyle.

Jefferson Messenger — Waxed Canvas | $170

First off, waxed canvas just looks better. Check out Alchemy Good’s Waxed Canvas Collection, it’s sure to not disappoint for whatever the occasion.

Secondly, I really like the old military style. It’s definitely something that I could haul around the city with me during a weekend or use it as my main commuter bag between the office and my house.

Dravus Messenger Bag | $160

The Dravus Messenger is my next pick. It has a more sporty look to it, and I like the fact that it has a handle on top to be carried life a briefcase. I could see this being good for bicycle commuting as well as being used for a flight carry-on.

Pike Messenger Bag | $130

My final pick is the Pike Messenger. It’s pretty similar to the Dravus, but it doesn’t have a handle. The design is a bit shinier than the Dravus and it looks like it might be better left for fancy days in the city.
