A revamped classic, the Marimekko Olkalaukku Urbaani Orange Messenger Bag adds new, convenient features to the original Olkalaukku. The Urbaani has a zippered closure to secure the main compartment, and a separate zippered pouch inside that divides into two additional pockets. Find two more storage slots on the back of the bag, perfect for keeping your phone and keys within easy reach. Those who knew and loved the original Olkalaukku will still enjoy the same zippered front flap, front pockets and adjustable strap. Blending function and fashion in a fluorescent shade, the Olkalaukku Urbaani Orange Messenger Bag takes a great thing and makes it even greater.

This is super bright orange, so if you're crossing a street you should be visible. What's nice is the updated zipper inside- for ages I liked the classic Olkalauukku bag but I never got one because it seemed like everything inside would fall out. the urbaani updates that classic style with a zipper inside, but the zipper doesn't go all the way to the edge (it's not a total cover on the corners). Although the downside might be that you can't tip it upside down and shake it and expect it to stay perfectly intact, the upside is that you can overstuff it. Hardware is very good quality (the strap adjustment). I don't know if I wish the straps were woven instead of fabric with edging.
Although I'm happy with orange, I wish Marimekko would come out with this bag in other colors (but not black, b/c inside a black bag you can't see very well).
The price is a little steep for a fabric bag but the quality is definitely there and very well made. Nice pockets inside fit things like phones. The advantage to this bag versus something leather is that fabric is lighter.
