Honest review after nearly 2 years of use

After using this backpack for nearly two years, I can say that this backpack is good but can be improved in the future.

The bag itself is highly fashionable due to its niche, modern looking design. The compartments are somewhat innovative with good practical use. It's laptop compartment is one of the smartest ones I have ever seen.

Now what are the cons?

I have alot to say here, I do not reccomend this bag any kind of travel/hiking or general outdoor purposes. The harness system is very uncomfortable even with light camera gear. The straps are a little to thin for my needs, as well as the back pannel is quite bad when it comes to absorbing sweat and ventilation. I have tried using this for light gear travelling during the summer, and it just doesn't quite meet the standards.

It also does NOT come with a Waterbottle pocket!!

I thought I was able to handle this but no, I was constantly reaching for it but ended up having to take off my backpack in order to reach my water inside the bag.

Next, the camera cube for the bottom compartment of this bag gives you good protection but with poor design. When the bag is full, it is extremely difficult to take out your camera gear and could be damaged. I've ran into situations on the go where I wanted to swich my lenses but have struggled to do so with these issues along with having to hold the bag to the front to get access to this pocket. Howver without the camera cube, the bag doesn't stay structured enough so you are somewhat…

Zipper problems

I love the backpack, except the zipper on the bottom compartment which catches the fabric on the outside frequently.

Obsessed!

I am obsessed with this bag! I love the feel of the material, I love all the zippers and spaces to store things, and I love the size. I don’t use it for photography, I use it as a commuter bag, so I got it without the camera insert and the bottom pouch fits my toiletry/makeup bag so PERFECTLY. The main compartment I use for a change of clothing, an umbrella, and my lunch bag. I love that it also has a very sturdy and secure area for a laptop and tablet. There’s also a nice big pocket on the inside for my work badge, keys, chargers, and various other little items. It’s also super waterproof. I walked to work in the rain one day and it beads up like water on a duck’s feathers! I love having this bag with me.

Lo zaino per eccellenza (fotografico o da gita veloce)

È arrivato stamattina e l’ho studiato nei minimi dettagli. Ha un sacco di inserti interni, tasche e taschini nascoste per chiavi e documenti. Ma la cosa geniale sono i due comparti completamente divisi. Avendo già l’inserto camera comprato in precedenza, ora ho il mio zaino fotografico. È c’è davvero posto per tutto. La tasca a schiena capiente può tranquillamente contenere un laptop o un iPad e il set è completo. Anche per una gita veloce lo scomparto in basso può contenere un paio di scarpe o un beauty case diviso dal resto. Lo trova davvero geniale. E una menzione speciale va sicuramente al materiale, alle cerniere e alle fasce. Bravi 👏🏻 . Continuiamo a piantare alberi🤍
