My Thoughts:I was looking for a cheap backpack with good quailty. Literally searched so much. I had a gut feeling this was the one. Glad I picked this ,Loved it! was not expecting to and had my doubts but when it came I was sold. super satisfied.Appearance from the outside:First thing I liked was the padding well supported at the shoulders and back ,and very light. The Bag was well made even in the outer appearance. Color was much prettier than I expected it had a punk military sand desert color which I thought was cool without being to in your face. I was suprised at how much room it had and how deep the pockets were. My favorite part was the Side pockets to hold a water bottle it came up on just the right height meaning more than half way up the water bottle. So u know it's not gonna fall. I even put one of my Protein bottles in, Seeing if it will hold .A little wiggling around and it was in! Came half way up the cup which I really liked which alot of backpacks don't do.I loved the ID hidden pocket on the shoulder straps as a Women sometimes I may be wearing leggings or cursed pants that don't have pockets. And this pocket was a gem to have I could put money in it to pull out quickly or my ID /credit card if I needed it. I liked the key holders which I tend to attach my Work ID on it or my keys when I'm at the gym. Sunglass strap is nice too though I sometimes hang my normal glasses there when I get tired of using them . I also like the hidden back pocket on the back of the backpack it was deeper than I expected came half way in deepness in the bag and was pretty wide too . Zippers were smooth as well.Inner:The fabric that lined the inner I was suprised at how well it felt had a velvet soft texture. which gave it a high quality feel .it had padding for your laptop which was a plus and the side usb was there as well. wish there was a side pocket in the inside to hold the battery pack but there are many pockets so it doesn't matter . space wise as I mentioned Ample room I put in my (semi Heavy biker boots) and 2 thick sweaters,a book and still had room for more . laptop fit also. Zippers ,zip up smooth too. Really liked the bag I'm just using it for everyday travel bag from work to home ,gym or lunch bag when i forget my lunchbag .Only Con: Since I am a female and on the shorter size the bag seems to be tailored more to a guy do to the sizing or it can be the design at the top portion of the bag which gives the illusion it's taller making it seems big on me. Still it's not so big that it's a stopper and people point or it's super noticable .lol it's just a big backpack but I don't mind there is so much room and it's light I like it alot. Also it is Not bulky which a huge plus cus normally a bag like this tends tl over do it in thickness.Though I loved this color I chose to return it and buy the Black version since it will be less conspicuous in regards to the look of size. like I mentioned not super noticable but as a smaller women in frame I would advise you to go with black even though i loved this color. if u are also looking to appease it to style as well as i wanted to.
