About ZERO:
The Zero platform is specially designed to optimize fabric cutting and reduce manufacturing waste. A holistic approach uniting minimalist design, localized sourcing and minimal waste manufacturing, the Zero is made using domestically sourced materials thereby shortening the raw material supply chain and reducing its ecological footprint. To facilitate recycling, this bag is made entirely of nylon. The result is elegantly simple and functional.
A Functional Approach:
We've designed an innovative accessory system designed to work seamlessly with our Zero Messenger Bag family. Continuing our philosophy of minimal, sustainable design, each bag has three strips of velcro designed to hold accessories that can add function to your bag. We believe your bag should adapt, and our accessory system allows you to easily change your bag's configuration. Here's our full line of interchangeable velcro accessories, and we're steadily working on more.
About Design:
We pride ourselves on following our three F's of design, Form Function and Footprint, to craft a quality product with urban communing in mind. Next time you're in town, we invite you to come take a tour of our San Francisco factory to see where each and every Zero is made.

I'm coming from a six year old custom Timbuk2 Laptop Messenger, size medium.
It's fully awesome that the components in this bag are modular. The laptop sleeve in the timbuk2 is sewn in so when I wasn't carrying my laptop, which was decent amount of time, I was wasting about 25% of the bag's capacity. Which is a bummer.
The bag is fairly comfortable, though it'd be nice if the shoulder strap was even more adjustable. I'm short-to-average height, about 5'7", and fully adjusted the bag still hangs lower than I'd like. But that's personal preference and your mileage may vary. The timbuk2 bag was ridiculously adjustable, and much easier to make adjustments, though it'd leave you with this big stupid loop of extra strap. In that regard, this bag is better because it handles the excess strap intelligently (which is why the adjustability is limited).
I wouldn't say this bag is heavy -- it's about the same weight, if not lighter, than my old bag and it has greater capacity. Certainly if I fill it up with dense materials it will be heavy, but that's a function of the space the bag provides, not of the bag itself.
Overall, very happy with my zero messenger.

My bag is really lovely, I did the aubergine tweed with barn red interior and piping. I only wish the aubergine was a little more purple and a little less brown under most indoor lighting. The bag is very large, there is enough room for my laptop, multiple school books and whatever other miscellaneous stuff I have with me at school. The bag is still a little heavy when empty but it is on par with other bags of the same style. Overall the bag is perfect for school and so far has kept my stuff dry in the rain.

As this was a gift for our adult son, I can only go by how enthusiastic he was about the bag. He used it for a trip out to CA, OR and WA. and reported that it was, indeed, just what he'd wanted!!!
I was EXTREMELY enthusiastic about the customer service and how people went "above and beyond" to make sure that the bag was re-delivered in a timely manner. It makes me consider buying a bag for myself, just because they were so kind and helpful!
