I purchased this bag to use as a carry-on/weekend bag. I was able to get quite a bit of stuff in this bag along with the extra space for a pair of shoes. I really like this bag and was so excited to use it. The only reason I didn't give it 5  stars is because after one trip the shoulder strap broke. That was very disappointing to me since I will now only be able to carry the bag by hand. Other than it is a great bag and served its purpose well.
