I have the bag for about 1.5 months. It's holding fine; however, the black coating on the metal parts is already showing some scratches. I hope the bag will last at least 5 years.
I really like the design of my bag, especially the magnetic feature on the straps that keeps the handles attached to the back when the bag isn’t on my shoulder. However, I’ve noticed an issue with the magnet on the body of the bag—it tends to come loose quite easily. Both my friend and I experienced this with the right-side magnet.
To fix it, we had to reinsert the magnet and stitch over its surface to keep it secure. I think adding a stronger internal holder for the magnet, or reinforcing the existing one, would solve this issue and improve the overall design. Thank you for creating such a stylish and functional bag, and I hope this feedback helps! 😊
I bought this bag for my trip last week to Cozumel. I used it as my personal carry-on bag for the trip. I was able to easily fit a fly reel and extra spool, two sunglass cases, gopro, change of clothes, raincoat, and my toiletries bag in the main compartment. The attachment straps and multiple attachment points made it easy to strap my flyrod tube and water bottle to the exterior of the pack. The "computer" sleeve area was great for travel papers and misc. storage. I am going to purchase the 45L Travel bag for my upcoming 2 week trip to Italy. It will be the only bag I am taking.
I absolutely love this bag. The look and feel are premium and the main compartment organization can't be beat. It is ideal for a camera setup but takes some time getting used to as a daily.
I'm used to a quick access pockets on the front or just inside the bag for things like passports, pens, wallet, etc and this bag doesn't have much of that (ie, you'll need to use the seperators but that takes some getting used to). Lastly, the straps are cushiony but somehow don't feel as nice as other high end bags when with a heavy load.
All in all though, I would recommend for the look, feel and warranty alone.
Bought this over a year ago. Best Daily bag ever, just like the name says. The top latch and side openings are so good. Everything about this bag is the best. I just can't recommend this enough.
Backpack is extremely well designed and we'll made. It has all the bells and whistles you could imagine (and some you couldn't). Great access to the content of the backpack, security (from theft, and from physical damage) and ease of use. It's perfect for travel, for everyday commute, for transporting cameras and laptops etc. Overall great backpack. It's not cheap, but you get what you pay for.
