This is a very nice bag.  I got one for my birthday (fianc knows I like 24, lol)  so I've had it for about 6 months now.  I carry i everywhere and carry everything I need in it. And it holds a LOT, be it extra clothes, food, water bottles, my laptop, books, camera equipment, drawing tools (art major)  or any combination thereof.

The brass hardware is nice and very durable.  As is the bag.  Sometimes the strap needs adjusting (weight makes the strap lengthen at times)  but that's an easy fix-I just reach around behind me an Ta-Da!

It looks like vintage military surplus, which is nice.  the olive canvas sticks out in this world of stuffy leather messenger bags and crappy nylon ones.  and it's definitely cool to meet with a client and everyone has their laptop bags and I pull mine out of this canvas army type bag.

Very cool bag, final ansa
