Reasons to buy

Truly durable and weather-resistant. It also comes with a rainfly to keep your things dry during heavy downpours.
Comfortable to use even when fully packed and/or used for extended periods of time.
Features lots of organization that will keep things tidy inside the bag.
The dual access is truly convenient to use whenever reaching for your laptop or something else inside your bag.

Things to consider

Issues with the pockets being tight to use.
The hip belt is really bulky and can't be tucked nor removed.
The shoe compartment eats up space in the main compartment so you should keep this in mind when packing.

What reviewers said

"I was really excited about this bag when it showed up after doing all of the research on it. It does have some great qualities - you can fit a lot in the bag and the waist and other straps help a lot when distributing the load. Even with a lot of stuff in the bag, it doesn't seem completely unmanageably heavy."
"This little backpack has a lot of advantages. There are many little pockets to help you organize things and I like that you can fit a lock on the zippers. The part that I love the most about this backpack is that it opens like a butterfly with each side separate from the other for easier organization of clothes. I have used this backpack on two 5 day trips so far and with careful, mindful packing, everything I need fits. I like that there is a separate zipper for the laptop compartment. I don't have a laptop, but it easily fits my kindle and whatever else I want to easily access. I'm excited to use it for International trips!"
"This backpack is just the perfect size for my carry-on for my upcoming trip to Iceland!. I love having multiple compartments that are sturdy, yet flexible. It is so well built and supportive. Thank you!"
