 If only it were larger Jul 14, 2007
By Ed R.
I liked the idea of having a messenger-style diaper bag as opposed to the more prevalent tote-styles. The Diaper Dude bag is ok, but there are a few items that would make it better for my needs.
My biggest wish is that the main compartment were larger. It's fairly small and when we put in all the things we'd like to carry, the bag gets stuffed and becomes somewhat misshapen to the point where it lays awkward on my hip and back. I tend to carry portable wipes, 4-5 diapers, 1-2 change of clothes, a hat, a blanket, a sippy cup, a snack trap, a couple of toys, my cell phone and keys. Because I can't find a place for everything, the main inside compartment is a mishmash of unorganized items.
The cell phone holder does a fine job holding my LG flip phone. A bigger phone however wouldn't fit, but $15 for a Timbuk2 cell phone case would solve that. Also, the elasticized bottle pocket is pretty snug so getting a bottle in and out is kinda tough. On the other hand, the bottle doesn't fall out accidentally.
Additionally, the dirty diaper pocket in the large compartment should probably have a zipper to keep the smell out of the other items in the bag and avoid cross contamination. The hooks for keys and pacifiers would probably only hold keys. The pacifiers being sold these days aren't on a ring and are much too big to be hooked onto the bag. The included changing pad is padded nicely though.
Overall, it's a decent bag, especially at Amazon.com prices. Someone in our play group has complimented me twice on the bag so I may just give it away to them or keep it as a backup bag. I recently ordered a DadGear messenger diaper bag for nearly the same price and am hoping that it holds all my items better.

 Comfortable, convenient, mid-sized bag Aug 20, 2007
By James Huff
This bag is very comfortable to wear, and the size and location of the zippered pockets in the front, the snap-closure pocket on the back, and the pockets in the larger main compartment makes it easy to keep things organized and easy to find. We've only been using the bag for a few weeks, so I can't speak to its durability, but the construction appears solid, and the zippers work easily.
The only negatives are the smallish mobile phone holder (won't hold anything much bigger than a standard flip phone), and the fact that the interior is lined in black, which makes it harder to see items in the bag. (Many baby bag manufacturers have moved to a light-colored interior lining for this reason. It makes it much easier to see what's in the bottom of your bag.) These are relatively minor issues, though, and overall the bag is very well designed and convenient to use. It's very helpful that everything is accessible without having to take the bag off or set it down (unlike a backpack-style diaper bag, for example).
This bag is definitely on the small side for a diaper bag, though. We have two kids, 1 and 4 years old, and this bag is good for a trip to the park for a couple of hours or something like that, but too small for our family to use to take the kids to grandpa's house for a whole day. If you want a bag that's small and comfortable to wear for shorter trips, though, this is a good choice.

 Great bag...Both looks and function Mar 16, 2007
By Justin
I already had a backpack style diaper bag which I liked ok...but it got to be a pain if I needed to grab something out of it. I had looked at the diaper dude bags before but didn't want to spend the extra cash. I ended up breaking down and buying one and haven't regretted it a bit. This bag has lots of room with several outer pockets to place frequently used items. If I need to get anything out of the bag I don't have to take it off to see what I'm doing, which I had to do with my backpack style bag. Plus the looks can't be beat....a variety of patterns in a handy messenger style bag.

love it but Mar 24, 2007
By Mr and Mrs VanGundy
We bought our bag early last year we have used now for 8 months. I get alot of positive feeddback on our bag. I love it, we both are big hunters and the camo it awesome and I love the pockets and the fit. The only thing is the seams are starting to rip near the zipper on the stress points. So it is kind of a bummer I need to buy a new bag soon and I really didn't want to I wanted a bag that would last. But I really like the product and if they would just make the seams stronger I would buy the product again....

Twin Mom LOVES this bag! Apr 29, 2009
By J. Rice
"Twin Mom"
I have never reviewed a product before but I have been so happy with this bag I had to share! I have twins that I have to keep up with so I needed a bag that would allow for easy access, easy carry, and easy storage. This bag has exceeded all expectations. The bag doesn't get in the way when you carry it and it is big enough to get plenty of diapers, wipes, 2 cups, snacks, small toys, and other items needed for a trip out with 2 toddlers. I love how the compartments are set up so I can easily find what I need before the next meltdown! I have carried many bags over the last year and a half and I wish this was the first bag I bought! Even though I have girls, I am happy to carry this bag instead of the cuter girly bags I had before. My husband is now not ashamed to carry the diaper bag!
