Review on πŸŽ’ Polyester Crossbody Backpack: KAVU Original Rope Sling Bag – Enhanced SEO by Matthew Perez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great bag but wrong color

This is the third Kavu bag I've bought and while I really like its size and comfort factor (and so does my other two small Kavu bags) I'll probably be returning it. The main reason is that the color of the bag I bought based on the "Trail Marker" pattern was not accurately represented in the photos. Although the description of the bag looks like it's a light khaki, it's actually a darker brown with an almost olive hue. I'm not sure if it's because the fabric is polyester and not cotton (which I really like since it's "waterproof"), but I was definitely a little disappointed to see such a dramatic color difference , so she lost a star. in my rating. But the rest of the bag made me very happy! The size was large and I lay comfortably on my back. My Samsung Galaxy S6 phone is too big to fit in the top front pocket, but it fits perfectly in the front zip pocket. I also like the double compartments - the largest is on the left and has its own inner pocket, the smaller on the right. This is enough space for all your belongings to have your own room and keep things separate if needed. I didn't think I'd like the "rope" harness as I doubted it would be comfortable, but it's actually good. And like I said, I liked the polyester material. It seems to clean up well after a spill and will keep your stuff dry in light rain which is a big plus. At the moment I have ordered a cotton version of this bag with a different print ("Range"), I hope it matches the picture better than this print. Overall, Kavu makes great bags, but this particular bag just isn't for me.
