After 21 months of a daily commute on the train, the only wear is a slight patina on the bottom binding. The luggage pass-through is genuinely useful, not decorative. I am in San Francisco.

I packed this for a a weekend trip to Portland and it swallowed everything. The side seam distributes weight well and the studded corner is a small win. I am in Chicago.

I carry a lot for a ferry ride to Bainbridge and this bag does not complain. The laptop sleeve is the strongest part of the design. I am in Chicago.

The front slip pocket is the detail I did not know I wanted. The compression strap feels over-built in the best way after 20 months. I am in San Diego.

It handled a a bike commute along the waterfront in the rain better than expected. The D-ring dried overnight and the magnetic flap did not corrode. I am in Cleveland.

★☆☆☆☆

This replaced a bag that cost twice as much. The key leash is better designed and the card slot layout is easier to use with one hand. I am in Dallas.
