Great color

I love the size of this pack. However due to the laptop sleeve the main pocket feels a bit small. Something I would have realized if I had purchased in person. I'll make it work. Thankful the water bottle pockets can hold a Nalgene.

I bought this for a second time!

This is being used for my daughter's school. The backpack is light weight, comfortable to carry, and roomy with lots of pockets. She actually has this same backpack prior in another color and loved it so much!

Use all the time! Durable

I actually use this as a work bag.my only complaint would be the main pocket is hard to fit bulky stuff in because all the little pockets in the front. But it's heavy duty and perfect for my job where I travel.

Well made and looks good!

This is actually the second one I've purchased of this backpack. The first was for one daughter's school backpack at the beginning of the school year. As her twin's backpack (another brand) started falling apart, she decided to get this one... in another color of course. These are so well made and looks good.
