Please help me find a solid messenger bag for college

Long time lurker, first time poster 👋
I’m u/Federal-Special4674 and looking for a well-built messenger/shoulder bag (not a backpack) for daily college carry.

Key requirements:

• Comfortable, padded shoulder strap
• Properly padded sleeve for an iPad Pro (M4)
• Internal organization for pens and pencils

Typical carry:

• Compact iFixit kit
• 2–3 notebooks (2-subject)
• 2–3 folders
• 1–2 books
• Optional water bottle

Preferences

• Holds its shape when loaded
• Durable materials
• Doesn’t feel oversized when partially packed

Zip or Velcro closure is fine. I’m open to both classic and modern designs.

I’m mainly looking for specific model recommendations or links to what you guys recommend. Appreciate any wisdom you’re willing to share — thank you, oh wise manybaggers 🙏
