Skip Hop Via Messenger Bag
The Via Messenger Bag from Skip Hop provides endless possibilities. It has tons of pockets for everything from bottles to diapers to wipes and pacifiers. It also features the anti-microbial pocket so you can be assured that the things you put in there remain clean. It is featured in a number of basic but fun colors so you have good choices for your diaper bag. It is also reasonably priced and worth every penny.

Good sturdy bag
This bag provides a ton of pockets to stash all your baby's stuff. It looks just like a laptop bag or something you would carry to work. The only issue is not with the bag itself, but with the changing pad -- it could be bigger, and it would be nice to have a non-slip surface on the back because it can slide around.

Good Bag
This bag is pretty good- it is a good size (not too big, not too small), has lots of pockets/ compartments, and the skip hop stroller clips (which are great). It is also gender neutral, so my husband does not mind carrying it. However, I live in the city, so my bag is usually clipped to my stroller because I walk most places. Since the bag is messenger style, the stroller handle bar makes it really hard to open. (I have the BOB stroller, which I love.) So, either I have to leave it open, or unclip at least one side from the stroller to get anything out. There are two pockets on the outside of the flap where I can keep my phone, keys, and cash- but anything for the baby is inside the bag. Otherwise, it is a good bag, well constructed with quality materials. However, think of getting a different style if you will be primarily using it with a stroller.

Roomy and stylish
Not only is this a stylish diaper bag, but it has room and pockets for everything. On a daily basis I have 2 books, a toy, 8 diapers, wipes, lotion, an extra outfit for my baby, butt paste, sun screen, changing pad, baggies, a small blanket, wallet, cell phone, and car keys. It is so easy to find everything and the bag is easy to wipe clean. This is a wonderful go everywhere and do everything diaper bag.

great for strollers
i love skip hop. This diaper is great but I am starting to think it is a little small and I always have to carry some stuff in the stroller storage. The best feature is the stroller handles, love them!

Not the best
The quality is great and I use the changing pad a lot but for daily use it's a little large and bulky. If I put too much in it the flap doesn't stay down and although there are a lot of pockets, you can't put a ton of stuff in it. But, it looks nice and if I'm not going out for a long time, it fits everything I need.

I love this bag!
This bag holds everything, the pad is easy to clean, and it's reasonably priced so I don't worry about it getting stolen.
I purchased a different diaper bag before the baby arrived because it looked nice but come to find out it was terrible and just not practical so I went in search of a new bag after the baby was born. I bought the skip hop bag and it was exactly what I was looking for! it was light, big enough but not too big and has many zippered compartments that are very useful since I rarely carry a purse when I am with the baby. The messenger style is great for either the shoulder or across the chest, plus it has clips that fit around my stroller which is great for walks. Overall it definitely fits my needs and helped to get me out of the house in the early days after the baby came home.

Great diaper bag!
I looked at so many diaper bags and changed my mind a million times. I'm glad that I got this one. It has a lot of convenient pockets, it looks great, clips onto the stroller handles, has a padded shoulder strap for comfort, and it has plenty of room. I got it in brown thinking it would go with a girl and boy.
We love skip hop products. But this is one to pass. There are so many procket but once you fill those pockets up there is no room for anything else. It is too narrow! My friend got one too and she didn't like hers either. I only used it for about a month before I got a new one. Skip it.
We both love this diaper bag. Originally this was my husband's diaper bag; it was the be the one he would actually carry and I was going to get a cute purse-like one. Our daughter is almost four months old and I have not bought one yet. We both love this diaper bag! It has sooo many pockets in all the right places, inside and out. We know exactly where everything is and everything has its place. And it is a simple, classic messenger bag to carry. We love it!

Loved it at first
Great bag, great storage...sad to say after 9 months of use, it looks old, tattered and worn.
Skip hop makes great products, I just wish I didnt have to replace my diaper bag before my daughter turns one!

Useful Diaper Bag!
Love this diaper bag for everyday use! It has so many pockets which I store everything in! It is on the smaller side which is great so I can bring it everywhere with me. It holds exactly what I need without being overwhelming!
I love this bag as far as its look and functionality. I also like that its gender neutral for baby and for husband and myself feeling comfortable carrying it around. The only drawback is that I feel like it's starting to already look worn after 9 months of good use, but nothing rigorous. I wish it was a little better quality but overall I think I'd pick it again!

Multi-functional diaper bag
This was one of three diaper bags I received and it's the one I keep going back to. The neutral colors and designs coordinate with everything and the stroller clips proudly proclaim this as a Skip Hop design. I've never seen this on any other brand and so many parents ask me is this a custom-made bag. The clips are one of the best features of the bag and I prefer this function more than the over the shoulder strap style. The bag is a good size without being too small or big. You can definitely store about 4 diapers, wipes, a change of clothing, one bottle/sippy cup and small snacks.

I love this bag!
I bought the skip hop messenger bag and love it. it has very accessible pockets and attaches very easily to any stroller. This is a great bag for those who are always out walking about and need the stroller basket to store other stuff. love it!
We wanted a hip, urban bag that both me and my husband could tote around. We held off until after our son was born to get this bag. I have to say in two months I have maybe used this bag three times. I love that it attaches to our Quinny stroller! The downside is that it is VERY narrow and does not fit alot. I have more luck throwing his items into a bigger purse. It also has so many pockets that it becomes confusing to remember what pocket holds what and some of the pockets are really almost too small to hold anything at all. Overall, skip this bag and spend the $$ on something else.

Love this diaper bag!
I love this bag. It has a ton of pockets and i love the color options. It is super durable and cleans up great. The changing pad is comfy for my son but is also great because it can be thrown in the wash as well. It is super roomy but not too big. It fits over the stroller and the clip system on the sides works great for hooking other things on to it. Can't say enough about this bag.
I'm very happy with this bag - lots of great pockets and plenty of space. I use cloth diapers and the bag can get a little small with 4-5 cloths in there but overall it's been good for us.
This bag is great in that it has ALOT of pockets...however, once you fill up the pockets there is not room in the big section of the bag for anything else. The pockets are for small products so extra outfits, burps, etc are hard to fit in. I already want a new diaper bag with more room and I have only had this one for 3 months.
