I needed a good backpack for everyday use and travel. This bag meets all my requirements. First thing I noticed is that the material is thick and durable, like denim. I haven't tested it for water resistance, but it definitely looks like it will repel rainwater for a short time. Second, I like how many pockets are inside. When you travel, you want to have all of your belongings close at hand when you need them. This bag allows me to carry my charger, meds, wipes, passport and anything else I need in one convenient, separate and easy-to-access pocket. Third, this backpack holds a lot of things. I have a smaller size that fits well in the luggage compartment under the seats of the plane, which also has room for my legs. Although I'm smaller, it fits a tablet, a change of clothes, a cell phone, a spare battery, a passport, medication, some toiletries, a Kindle, and anything else I need for a 24-hour trip. So I was very impressed! Finally, the padded back lining makes it easy to carry, even when full. I would also like to note that the "protection pocket" in the back lining is a great idea. However, you won't want to keep more than some cash and possibly a passport. Anything thicker compromises comfort. I can only think of one remark. The shoulder straps are not easy to adjust when carrying a backpack. This is likely the result of using thick cotton material for the straps instead of cheap nylon. Thus, friction makes adjustment difficult. However, I think I prefer the look of cotton over nylon and it gets easier to adapt to over time. +++++ UPDATE: MAY 2021 +++++ Changed from 4 to 5 stars because this bag has been really held up and hardly worn for the last 2 years. In addition, the straps are now easily adjustable, which I criticized above. I'm not sure when that happened, but it didn't last long. I probably should have updated this review sooner. Nevertheless, I am very impressed with this backpack! Definitely worth something like thirty bucks.
