Purchased the Kavu rope sling and returned it. It was awkward to get into the bag as both large compartments had stiff flaps over the zippers which covered the zipper pulls. In addition, the two small pockets on the front were soo small, they were essentially useless. Purchased the Paxton and really like it. First, no flaps on the zippers, the large compartment zipper is a 2 way zipper which allows you to place the closing point anywhere. Lots of zippered pockets that are easy to get to. Comfortable on left shoulder or cross body. The strap adjusts easily. Love the sizable water bottle pocket on the side of the bag. Front bottom pocket is perfect for even the largest phone. Selected the Mojave pattern, the colors are navy, orange, light gray and turquoise paired with a solid dark turquoise. The solid and pattern are matched perfectly. The zippers are navy which I prefer to the white zippers (would they get dingy with use?) which are used with soo many of the patterns. Holds everything I carry with room to spare. What makes this such a great back pack is the rope shoulder strap .... super comfortable! Would've given 5 stars but the key fob could be a better quality and would much prefer an all polyester bag (water resistant) vs  50/50 cotton/poly.
