Review on AOTIAN Backpack Canvas Crossbody Liters Backpacks in Casual Daypacks by Dennis Goozmer

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice design, poor quality

This bag looks decent, the 'expandable' part doesn't add much volume, but it helped me to store my rain cover with all my other camping gear while I was out on a bright day hike. The canvas is not fully waterproof. I got caught in the rain, walked under it for about an hour, and the water seeped through the seams in the bag and ruined the book I was carrying. The waxed canvas also repels only light rain and splashes. After some time it reaches its saturation point and becomes completely permeable. I suggest applying a waterproofing spray if you want to achieve actual waterproofing. EDIT as of July 2018: The zip hung and broke after about a year of accidental use. I'm disappointed because it was a luxury bag while it lasted.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Protection
