stylish small backpack perfect for day trips
"Generally a comfortable, well designed backpack with some nice design features that work well as a day pack whether out hiking or around town. It has stayed dry inside even during a day walking around in heavy rain and the padding to the main compartment meant I could double this up as a camara bag for my full size DSLR. The clever locking mechanism on the main flap works well although you can open it with one hand pretty quickly once you figure out the technique, so don't drop your guard in crowded areas prone to pickpockets. All the stitiching and finishing was excellent and all seems very durable and thanks to the flat base the bag can stay upright when placed on the ground or a table. A few things I would change is adding a bit of velcro or other secore closing mechanism for the small flap to the very useful little pocket on the inside of the main compartment's zipped flap which has the habbit of popping open and the content falling out when you are accessing the main compartment unzipped as the flap it is attached to is pointing downwards. A chest compression strap would be nice or at least a couple of loops on the shoulder strap to allow you to fit one; the side pockets are good but could do with expanding out more when unzipped as it can be tricky to fit a water bottle in to them if your main compartment is full,"
