I researched bags up the yin-yang and finally decided on this bag. I did not want one too big... just enough to carry a Ipad, snacks, a rain poncho and hat. This bag is PERFECT! Super well-made with waterproof material, nice padded adjustable strap and secure flap closure. I use this as an everyday commuter on my bike but I will also be using it to travel. I am completely 100% happy with this purchase... Not to mention the super neat colors!
