Why doesn't the Diablo (Red) bag have compression straps that go all the way around the bottom like the others do? Look at the pics.

Well, I don't have this exact bag, but the Ledge XL +20* bag. When I ordered 2, I happened to get one left, and one right zip, so I would say this bag would also be available that way. I'm not sure you can select which one you will get, though. Maybe the Amazon people can add that as an option??? Hint, hint...

If you don't have hook on one strap side, and loop on the other, then it is indeed missing something. Look at the picture of the vest. If yours doesn't resemble it, then return it. BTW- I found the SafetyPup people to be very interested in the satisfaction of their customers. I suspect they will make good ASAP on any issues you may have.

I have the one with the shoulder strap which handles nicely. Make sure you get the shoulder strap one. This could be it with the strap folded in the picture. The problem I have with the Marsupack is that even the small one sticks out quite a bit in front of the person carrying it.

Unfortunately no. That is only one of the short comings I feel this bag has. Although I thought this bag would be more in tune with what I was looking for, it fell well short. You may want to look at a "Domke". If I had an opportunity to see it prior to purchase, I would not have.

To add to my previous response: The top has an overhang and the bag stuffs up under the overhang. Great!

I thought the same thing. But no it doesn't. I Believe the picture is of another bag in the pro series. This bag is very well designed. I researched a lot of bags that have this capacity and am very happy with it. Something small to most that really sets it apart, is that it carries a tripod in the center instead of on the side. This keeps it well balanced.

No. Nothing like that. However, like the other guy says, it's a highly recommend bag I use it everyday. In fact it's right next to me as I respond to your question. You might be able to use one or both of the handles to go around the luggage handle bar. Or maybe you can have a loop added on by a good tailor. My point is, this bag is so worth buying that I would try to find a way be to make it what you want it to be.

The handles rap around the bag the shoulder strap buckels to the sides i hope this helps, its a really great bag.

Just realized there are hooks in the bottom that the strap works with a harness. I had put a cushion in the bottom and did not see these.

I have seen some of these bags with the integrated rain fly. this model in particular does not, nor does my personal model, normally it's a small pouch near the bottom of the bag.

Whenever I do something active like biking and some hiking, I would use the secondary strap. That kept the backpack in its place no matter how much I was moving. To pull it to the side and use my camera, I would have to remove the secondary strap otherwise the bag would stay in place.

There is a lever that allows you to make the strap as long or short as you need. You can roll up the slack with an elastic. It works great. When I use mine for biking I keep the strap short so the bag sits higher, when I walk with it I loosen it.

Yes. Although you may have difficulty finding a place to anchor the straps. Also the tail may be a little short for these bags.

There is a pretty nice handle at the top. But I'm not sure it would handle that well. Right now the bag is having multiple issues fixed at a leather shop that is quite a distance away. If you would like I could measure the strap and send you a pic once we get it back this Saturday. The guy working on it said it is a good bag overall...

There is slight padding towards your back, but no padding towards the other compartments. If you need padding, but something else.

Truthfully, I bought several Built bags at the same time so have not used this one, but plan to this fall. I just tried putting the straps over my shoulder and while I could get them on the shoulder, it was tight and I doubt I would do it often. The bag is quite large--bigger than I expected when ordering, but I like the style for the fall and winter. As mentioned, I have two other Built computer bags in more traditional briefcase styles. Hope this is of some help to you.
