I use this bag for everything from a short two day trip, shopping at the market, dog supplies for the dog park, just everything. I love that it has so many compartments and how well the compartments are lined. It can be used for a baby bag, small laptops, file folders, etc. If you need a very versatile bag, this is the one for you. I chose the khaki, but with so many colors to choose from I am going to order a different color.
