Bulletproof and gamechanging

This backpack has been a gamechanger for me when I travel. Often, I find that I can condense what used to be a 2-bag trip to this single backpack. It feels like I can fit way more stuff in here than I have any right to, and the organization is thoughtful and easy to access. In over a year of heavy use, I've had zero issues, even when forced to check the bag on flights. My only complaint is it's a bit on the heavy side, but that's a small price to pay for the durability, features, and organization niceties. Would buy this again in a heartbeat, and it made me a peak design fan for the long haul.
I travel frequently to Europe. I use planes, trains and automobiles. When I am with my Wife, I am her Sherpa as she has not mastered the art of minimalist packing. The versatility of this bag allows me to put it on my back and use my hands to assist with my Wife’s luggage. The bag has such a polished look, it will even fit in at a 5 star hotel. It’s perfect.
Purchased in 2022, used the bag approximately once or twice a year when I go on long trips. 1. One zip handle tore. 2. Silicon mesh pocket flaked very badly 3. Material covering/protecting the zip broke
I do not handle my bag roughly and when I travel I use this bag to supplement my large full size luggages. Read raving reviews about the bag and how some used it for years before I purchased it. The breakdown of materials started occurring less than 2 years during my once or twice yearly long trips.
Note: tried to attach photos to this review however unable to do so.
Amazing Backpack. Absolutely love the backpack and the company. The first one I bought was defective, and the support I received to replace it was nothing short of excellent. I am forever faithful to the products and the company.
