The Citizen 15L Messenger

Level Up

In Fall 2024, the Mini Metro evolved into the Citizen 15L Messenger—still compact, now smarter than ever. Built on the same trusted DNA, we refined the classic 15L silhouette using commuter feedback. We added a front-facing zippered laptop pocket for quick access to your tech, plus left or right shoulder carry with a padded, swappable buckle shoulder strap. A quick-grab handle? Naturally. And with our recycled auto-glass liner, it’s even lighter weight. Same legacy carry, just tuned up.

    Great commuter bag

    Good light commuter bag. Adding the organizer is a must in my opinion. Perfect for my laptop, random tech accessories, lunch, and a jacket.

    I read some people online thought the 15L was too small but when packed full, I wouldnt want anymore weight on my shoulder. So honestly I think this a really nice size.

    Nice bag but not for me

    Upon delivery and inspection, determined quite quickly this bag wasn’t for me. Despite very well quality in construction, it didn’t have the functionality and compartmentalization I required.

    Not for me but good (and 15" mac compatible)

    So, first of all: yes, a recent 15” Apple laptop will fit in the bag’s soft laptop sleeve. My 15" MB Air 2024 is fitting with the slim protection it already got.

    Everything about this bag is great — the fabric, the color, the comfort, and the locking system.

    But I think it’s really a bag for people who need to carry a lot of heavy stuff by bike. For someone like me (who only commutes to work by bike), it’s not as practical as I expected.

    For instance, there’s no exterior pocket, nothing to hold your smartphone, wallet, or whatever you might need to grab quickly in the city. Also, 15L is a good size, but the buckle is so wide and big it feels oversized for the bag’s capacity.

    Anyway, it’s a 5-star product, and I’m definitely not sending it back — biking with it is an amazing feeling, and the overall quality is outstanding.
