This bag holds all I could need for days

Boyfriend bought this for me for christmas. Love love love this bag as it holds everything I could need for like a weeks worth of activities. Only 4 stars because the laptop section isn’t as big as I need, an the clamshell opening with the zippers can be a little tricky to maneuver.

Durable Bag

Took bag for first time on a plane. I shoved the bag into overhead, carried it between gates - it is a strong bag. Love the separate compartment on bottom, the space and pockets. Great size.

Why didn’t I get this sooner?!

Should have bought this sooner. It’s so convenient To carry along with my luggage. It holds just as much if not more than my carryon.

Good design, but ...

Love the overall design, especially the drop bottom. I do have a bit of difficulty zipping the top part as it is domed. Also, it is a bit heavy by itself. Improving those two areas would make this a perfect weekend travel piece.

Haven’t had the bag a month, and the bottom already has holes in it. Doesn’t hold much in order to zip it back. Very heavy to carry around. Tried to return and was told no because it’s considered cosmetic.
