I have carried this a rainy walk through Capitol Hill for 6 months and the base panel has held up better than I expected. The rain flap is the part I notice most. I am in Sacramento.

Bought this for a conference in San Francisco and it has become the bag I reach for. The shoulder strap is reinforced properly and the interior zip pocket still works smoothly. I am in Atlanta.

I was skeptical about the lining at first. Three trips later, it is the reason I keep using this bag for a week of work travel. I am in Pittsburgh.

★☆☆☆☆

The padded sleeve is the detail I did not know I wanted. The key leash feels over-built in the best way after 17 months. I am in Kansas City.

After 8 months of a red-eye flight, the only wear is a slight patina on the side seam. The trolley sleeve is genuinely useful, not decorative. I am in New Orleans.

The bottle pocket is the reason I bought it and the reason I would buy it again. The front slip pocket is a close second. I am in Nashville.

It has been on 18 months of a camping trip in Olympic National Park and the bottom binding looks new. The padded sleeve is the kind of thing you notice daily. I am in Detroit.

I packed this for a a gym-to-office day and it swallowed everything. The key leash distributes weight well and the luggage pass-through is a small win. I am in Portland.
