Beautiful bag, with one fault
I love this bag, I am carrying it for many many years, every day commute, train, bus, rain, snow... and it still looks like new. I even washed it in the washing machine. Love how it opens, it has enough space always, even if I need to stuck extra jacket in it, or extra food. Two bottle space on the side for both my coffee and water, Security closing functioning wonderfully. I really love everything about this bag. But...As I am getting older and my back and shoulders more sensitive, I am noticing that it is hanging on my shoulders, pulling down, feels heavy. I tried to put the whole usual content into another backpack with thicker straps ( another company) and I have to say with sadness, it felt like nothing on my back in another backpack. So unfortunately, even though I love it, I have to let it rest and switch. Please please...make the straps thicker and more padded, then it will be a perfect backpack! Btw, I bough the bag many many years ago, and I dont remember it being so expensive. With this price today, and other offers on market, I am not sure I would buy it again...maybe on sale.
