 - A Very Nice Backpack for the priceThis is a really nice little backpack. Weighs nothing on its own, does not get stained or pick up lint, pockets are just the right size and the zippers work, and it is comfortable to wear. It is well made. The only bad thing about it is that it has no internal structure of its own, so it really hangs down on your fanny when loaded with heavy lumpy things, such as kid snacks and coffee cups. This in turn makes your shirts and jackets creep up your back. If I remember to put in a light notebook or big square eva puzzle for the kids, it's more comfortable. You might just want to find a lightweight piece of foam to fit up against your back. Other than that, perfect! This was half the price and 1/4 of the weight of the other ones I looked at. Rating:  - Great DaypackI recently traveled to Europe and used this pack for trekking around during the day. As a bonus, it scrunches up to almost nothing when it is not in use. The pack has several convenient compartments and bottle holders. The fabric is soft and durable. It is comfortable to wear. Highly recommended! I also recently purchased and used the Rick Steves Convertible Carry-On. Another great bag that is indespensible. Rating: - The versatle day packGreat for the ballgame, hiking, or a photo outing. It can hold it all. Rating: - Versatile, Lightweight, Functional, and Roomer than You'd ExpectI can echo the comments made by the other reviewers, except that I didn't have any problems with the threads near the zipper unraveling. The only thing I would add would be a recommendation to NOT order this bag in black--although the fabric is super-soft and comfy, it did pick up lots of lint during a recent trip. And it seems to act as a cat hair magnet! I also had a little bit of a problem with the mesh side pockets; the drawstrings (like the shoulder straps) seemed to loosen over time and I lost a couple of water bottles. Other than that, it's great bag for travel and everyday use, and the price is reasonable. Rating: - Fantastic!We recently had a quick tour of Italy (Rome, Florence, Venice) in 1 week. The backpack served it's purpose. We inserted everything we needed for each day and with 3 seperate pouches we could find what we needed quickly. Everything I read about Italy talked about pickpocketing and this allowed us the freedom to be anywhere and not be concerned about someone getting our things. I have already recommended this item to several people.
