TL;DR it looks great, is reasonably comfortable, large capacity, seemingly quality materials. The top doesn't fit the bag itself so well and the front straps are a little tedious to undo. Exactly what I was looking for to carry clothes, food, charges, etc on my daily commute or weekend trips. It looks great and I would have no problem bringing it with me to a morning meeting for work. It's well built and it is large, a little too large for daily use for some people but that depends on preference. The interior fabric is really interesting, it is soft and feels high quality. The outside is a somewhat stiff (but not rigid) canvas like material. I haven't used the camera pouch yet but that was one of the selling points for me. It is made of the same interior fabric, not much padding on its own. It has a single velcro divider for a camera body with a lens mounted plus a spare lens. The top of the bag has a pull string for a rucksack kind of set up then the tip flap folds over secured with leather straps. The leather straps are held by both a button or a belt buckle. I use the belt buckle to access the bag because I feel the buttons are far too stiff and I am worried it will break with daily use. The buckle is more work to get inside the bag than something like a zipper but it's a small compromise. My biggest complaint about the bag is the top does not cover the bag opening completely. The sides of the bag stick out and create pockets that can trap water or the like. I usually push and fold the material under the lid but it doesn't always stay there. The lid should really be a little bigger to fit it more comfortably. Wearing the bag is fairly comfortable. Neither really impressed or disappointed here. I was willing to trade some comfort for looks here. There is a single front strap at chest level no waist strap. The chest strap is a d ring style buckle (like a motorcycle helmet). I appreciate that they do not use plastic for things like this. The side pockets are assymetric, one oversized one for water bottles. I can fit my 40 Oz kleen kanteen in there but just barely. The other side and front are relatively shallow and good for keys, pens, granola bars, etc. There is a hidden pocket on the back where I put my keys. There's also loop straps on the bottom for holding a yoga mat or sleeping bag.

this monster is the real deal. heavy in weight and robust in texture. pretty comfy having it on my back. tho a bit too large for day to day carry. i would hope not to put more burden while touring either. it's a bit ambiguous and odd. the leather does not look like real leather tho. i might get this a few more days breaking in to get into liking it.
