REVIEW: Crumpler's Tony Blair Retirement Special

One of my favorite bag manufacturers, hands down, is Crumpler. They make highly quality products and their sense of design is quite unique.

Take, for example, the limited edition Tony Blair Retirement Special (US$80). Part of a new line of notebook computer bags “The Squirrels” come in five sizes and four colors. The Squirrel is Crumpler’s answer to the traditional notebook briefcase and it's probably as close to traditional as they'll ever get.

What makes this bag unique is the printed Tony Blair head inside the orange lining. Other features:

- Water resistant 600D polyester shell
- 150D Ripstop lining
- Brushed polyester lined main compartment
- Removable & Adjustable shoulder strap
- Internal configurable sections allow for a 13" to 15" laptop
- Available in 4 colors
- Easy access stowable handles & two pockets

The Tony Blair Squirrel has fold away carry handles, a removable shoulder strap and an adjustable notebook compartment. Out of the box the Tony Blair fits the MacBook Pro 15-inch perfectly but it also can be adjusted (via velcro inserts) to fit down to 13-inch notebooks too.

I would be handy to have a little compartment built into the bag (preferably at one end) for a small water bottle. This would put everything I need for meetings in ONE bag.
