I didn’t realize but seemed to recall someone mention the zipper… I now understand! The zipper pull is a nylon string that can come off the zipper mechanism. The pull is not fixed to it and actually came off while I unzipped the case! I like the bag, the weight design compartments, but if I knew what a poor zipper design it was I would have kept looking. In the end I will crazy glue the clasp so it can not come out… but for $70.00 why am I fixing anything??? Really sad that they would produce this like this.
Don’t buy this bag.

Bought bag 27 Aug 2014. Took it on 5 trips total. Nice leather handstrap – one attaching to back side of bag (one w/o zippers) ripped off when pulling off of a luggage cart. Very annoying, 4th trip had just started. I didn’t have another bag and 5th trip was 5 days away.
Once side of handle pulled clean off the bag, other side still attached. Might be defect, might be sign of how bag is constructed. Now it’s time to see what a lifetime warranty means to Moible Edge. Will update on results if they are positive.
Prior to the handle coming detached I liked the bag a great deal – light weight, holds a lot and yet looks thin (unless you cram it full of stuff – then it looks like every other overstuffed computer bag – unfortunately not a bag of holding)
NOTE: I bought a very nice shoulder strap to use with this bag even though people said it came with a ‘nice’ strap – it comes with an ‘ok’ strap – laptop, mouse, powers supply and a few cables and anything’s heavy. The sucky part is that the strap I bought separate (Victorinox Comfort Fit Shoulder Strap) wouldn’t snap into the tinly little shoulder strap latches.

Great briefcase for those of you who travel. Bag is light with a comfortable strap. Going through security is a breeze without the need to remove my laptop. I only have 1 real complaint at that is the zipper. The metal piece that zips and unzips doesn’t fully secure the small rope and tab that you pull to easily zip and unzip. So it can come lose
