I purchased this bag to use as a day-bag for my 2 month backpacking trip across Europe. I'm the "better safe than sorry" type when it comes to pickpockets and thieves in foreign cities, so while I expect to be safe, I wanted a bag that I wouldn't have to be paranoid about. This definitely delivers! I'm giving it a test run while away for a weak, and it fits a ton of stuff with many secure zipper compartments that make keeping everything in my bag very organized!

I was worried about the strap hurting (not much padding there and it's very skinny and stiff) after a bit of wear, but my shoulders are fine so far. Though I'll update on that after my longer trip.

Definitely not too fashionable, but it won't stand out in a crowd, and the zippers are all lockable so I'd be shocked if a pickpocket finds any success with one of these!
