Best pack pack purchase ever, most useful and thought through design!

Size: the backpack has more than enough room, so much so, I almost didn’t know what to do with it all. Straps: The straps a very comfortable, have a great amount of padding and they aren’t impossible to look at like the old bubble straps. Though, the way it’s fastened to the primary pack is a bit questionable, leads me to wonder a clip might break well before the seems burst, if they ever did. Pockets: the pockets are all a fair size, with none of them being too small or too big, instead being just right. However, the insulated “drink” pocket is… weird, it is the only pocket that is an odd size and the zippers leads most of the space to be wasted and inconvenienced. Main compartment: primarily, I needed a bag that could hold a pair of shoes and an outfit, along with my school gear and some more, so I do not mind the way the inside of the bag is laid out; unfortunately, the main compartment is roomy, but the pouch pocket on sewn on the inside, attached to the front offers no reassurance or enforcement and will likely sag before too long, other than that, there are plenty pockets outside to fit whatever you fail to put inside. Material: the bag is typical Nike pack quality, id add, it is a few steps above average Nike bag quality. Per usual, I expect the backpack to last essentially forever. I have had my previous 22L Nike pack for six years and there is not a single tear or impairment that has deemed the bag unusable; in fact, I would use the bag still if I didn’t need more room. So, my wish is that the bag was waterproof, instead of water resistant, as the content of my packs are usually valuable or fragile and that would add piece of mind and add value. Moving on, the stitches and seams are seemingly impenetrable, when I pick the pack up from the handle, there are no worries of instability or tears and that’s a first, even on my previous Nike pack, I didn’t entirely trust the handle; anyway, there is no question this pack is on par (or above) the likes of its “competitors” and the only thing that could improve this would be weatherproofing. The straps use a clip like thing that is hooked onto a loop, but I do worry about the longevity and life expectancy of that clip and while picking my pack up with it fully loaded, it does have me worried. Overall: the pack is well worth the money and if you can snag a sale, do not pass it up, especially if you need the space. There is not another pack beating this one out for price, size and quality. Downsides: the “worst” part of this pack is the insulated pocket on the right side (from the front), the clips attaching the straps to the loops and the non-weatherproofing, fortunately, the pack is extremely water resistant. The best parts: design is perfect, low branding, no more bubble straps and it is lowkey; the size, the pockets, and the build quality, I love it. Plan to use this thing forever, no joke.

The other backpacks are better in terms of the straps. The straps are not comfortable because of the hooks. As well as the chest clip on mine came off and I can’t get it back on.
