Tough zippers and bag STINKS awful.

The bag is very roomy, but... It stinks!! I don't know why but I pulled it out of the box and my whole apartment and bedroom smelled for two days. The bag still holds the stench but it's in the closet for now as I'll be using it for an outdoor bag.
Also, the zippers are tough to open and close.
So, as it gets the job done, it just doesn't seem like a high quality bag. I'd recommend getting something elsewhere.

LOVE the size and design. Zippers are garbage. By the time you figure this out it will be too late to return

A horribly constructed bag! The zippers stopped working in less than 2 months and I lost several somewhat expensive articles out of the bags while transporting my quad on the interstate. If you use and rely on your bags to actually hold things securely this IS NOT the bag for you!

This bags are bad, I do not like it at all. They are rusty, hard and make a lot of noises while you are using them. I do not use them at all any more. I may trush them any min.

i like the bag itself in a general way, but those darn zippers..
they get suck literally every time i move them even if i move them an inch the zipper gets stuck.. they put some weird material by the 2 biggest compartments that go over the zipper, but every time you try to open the bag it gets stuck. it is very frustrated.

This bag has an awful odor to it.  The zippers are stiff and cheap.  It is a cute, but not cute enough to offset the smell and zippers.

Have had this for a little more than a year now. At first I loved it -- it holds a lot of gear.

A year later, I would not buy the bag if I had it to do over again.

The zippers are very, VERY loose -- the loosest of any bag I have ever seen. If they are not zipped-tied together, or the straps threaded through each other, the zippers come open on their own. If you have the bag more than about 1/3 full, the weight of the gear pulls the zippers completely open -- end to end. They unzip UNBELIEVABLY easily, so you're guaranteed to bounce all your camera gear off the ground if you don't secure the zippers.

I've not damaged any equipment with it -- hopefully never will, but I've come close a couple times.

No excuse why a CAMERA gear bag from CANON should have this issue -- they know exactly what kind of equipment is at risk by using such poor quality zippers.

the colours don't look as good, the bottom is lighter and the top is more grey than brown. the zippers are HORRIBLE, on a backpack the zipper should be sewn towards the back of the pocket so when you open ad pull the front fabric forward you expose the entire space, here the zipper the too forward so once you open it the fabric is still covering your things, so you have to basically turn the top inside out to be able to pull your laptop out.there are a lot of tiny pockets but i would rather have 2 lage pockets and a couple of tiny ones than 1 large and a billion small pockets, they're unnecessary and don't really separate the compartments well, so despite the 7 "compartments" my water bottle will still make my books wet, and my food and notebooks will be in the same place. also the front pocket which ALMOST ALWAYS has extra tiny spaces for cards and pends, has nothing. ... the bottom like is said is very light, and it's leather which is the worst choice for the bottom of anything because if i put down my backpack it will get dirty, of course any fabric will get dirty, but i'd rather it be something that is #1 easy to wash and #2 darker so it doesn't show, plus there's just something about leather, i feel like it absorbs the dirt and never really becomes clean no matter how much you wash it

Pros:
- weight
- material
- seams

Cons:
- Theres just so much organization and zippers that its borderline cumbersome getting things in and out quickly.
- The front pouchs zippers always get stuck at the corner apex when opening/closing.
- Wished there was a false bottom or some padding at the bottom to protect contents when placing/throwing down.
- Not for casual use/appearance. People *will* indeed think you are carrying.

Miserable boot.  I bought a full size larger (9) than what I normally wear (8) in Frye boots and they were way too tight and uncomfortable. The zipper sticks and jams even when off, and the buckles make zipping up an already impossible zipper that much more difficult. I decided to send these back as soon as I opened them, but went ahead and tried them on. Grrr. Those zippers!

Smelly work out clothes get even smellier when they're trapped in this bag which makes my closet a loathsome place.

The product's storage was excellent but unfortunately, I have to give this two stars. The pencil case smelled strongly of cigarette smoke from the moment I unpacked it. The smell surprisingly lingered for months no matter how hard i tried to get rid of it. Not only that but in addition to the horrible cigarette smell, both zippers fell off after a few months of use! Also, the mesh pocket at the top is sooo small. It can't hold more than a worn out eraser so it may as well not be there. Very disappointing.

The straps are uncomfortable.

The zipper is cheap.

Interior is poorly designed and there is no way to secure most of the contents.

I bought a "cheaper" backpack and that's what I got.

Zipper is very hard to open. Will buy the Velcro bag when these wear out.

I am very Disappointed in this Backpack. My First problem with this bag is how the straps are made. They are attached at the top of the bag with very thin strips of nylon with very crappy padding that does not even go the entire length of the strap.  My second big gripe is the fact that the backpack smells like it was smuggled across the border inside of a gas tank, it really has a strong petrochemical type odor that won't come out. I tried washing is twice and it didn't even faze it. I put this bag in the back of my SUV and i could smell it all the way in the front. The bag has plenty of room and seems basically well made except for the shoulder strap design is total crap. Simply put,  don't buy this bag if you want long lasting comfortable shoulder straps and be aware of the fact that it may have a strong Gas odor to it. I will be returning this crap soon.

I'm a seasoned traveler. I have a Go-lite bag that I'm trying to replace and I bought this bag for my international travel hoping to carry on. 1st off the bag ripped at the top seam thethird time I zipped it up. This was disconcerting as I was in the bush in Africa and I wasn't in a position to buy something new. Secondly it is not considered a carry on by American Airlines, Southwest, South Africa Airways, or British Airways.  So I ended up being forced to check the bag repeatedly. Finally with so many zippers you have to buy a million locks for the thing. I hate this bag- it has failed all that I needed from it- I'm probably going to give it away.  I wish I had been more attentive to the reviews that noted it is oversize. And the rips in the seams are just really disappointing.
