It measures approximately 15”(W) x 11(H)” x 4.5 (D).” It has one large center compartment that is lined with textile fabric. The interior lining has two fitted pockets sized for articles such as a cell phone and a palm pilot type device. The center compartment is sized to contain standard office file folders or a laptop computer. It features an adjustable, removable shoulder strap, two carrying handles, a zippered top closure, a zippered exterior pocket, an exterior pocked sized for file folders, and a flap closure that is secured with a magnet. The bag is imported with a keychain.
