I bought this bag my last year in school and it was great for carrying books and notebooks, pens, water bottles, flashdrives, and all those other things students carry around.
Then life got weird.
Over the past two years this bag and I have been to sea. I've carried it across Europe. We've explored the caves and jungles of Cambodia, and rowed down the fjords of Denmark. This bag has become one of my most trusted possessions.
When emptied it can be squeezed into a ball and tossed in a corner, or stuffed in a larger bag. It's roomy and comfortable, machine washable.
My criticisms are few and forgivable but worth mentioning. The zipper on the inside pocket broke just a few short months after buying the bag and hasn't worked since. As one reviewer also mentioned, the forward metal loop (the loop that connects the strap to the bag where it hangs under your arm, depending on how you wear it) twists lenghtwise. This will not cause the loop to open, but it wears into the canvas of the bag itself. It's not a huge issue, I've had this bag loaded to the brim and walked miles in it, but after over two years I expect the canvas to tear very soon. It's frayed about 60% of the way through.
The buckle on the strap squeaks a little on occasion when walking. It has gotten on my nerves from time to time, but for the most part it doesn't squeak, and when it does a simple shifting of the bag solves the problem.
But seriously, I've never had a bag put up with so much and be so useful.
It's not waterproof and not the best bag for a laptop. My laptop fits nicely in the bag and I have carried it many times, but it isn't padded or waterproof and as a result isn't the best bag if you carry your laptop regularly without a laptop sleeve.
Despite all that I highly recommend this bag. I mean, this is just a green canvas bag and I could write another 20 pages on how trusted it's been. We've been to museums in Paris and ridden elephants in Asia, soaked in the rough waters of the Atlantic and carried groceries home from the store.
This is a great bag.
Very good bag. April 5, 2006

I am very impressed with the quality of this bag. I use it mainly for carrying my things to work and back. It easily holds my lunch, drinks and cd's. Would recommend this bag to anyone and will most likely deal with this company again.
Awsome bag and great service. September 13, 2008

Awesome bag! A man bag, this aint no girlie-man bag. I bought this to tote my work gear, lunch bag and respiratory therapy stuff, and odds n ends. Plenty of space and tough enough to just toss anywhere. Nice thick shoulder strap for toting along on hikes and vacations. Easy to get to your junk on the move. Army Universe was quick to get this to me I ordered on a Saturday and recieved on following Friday.
Good gift March 8, 2009

I got this as a gift for my boyfriend to replace his old one which was very similar, so needless to say he liked it. It seems pretty sturdy and is able to carry all his books. As long as you're okay with velcro where the flap connects to the bag, there shouldn't be a problem.

I ordered this last Christmas(07) for my husband. He has used it daily since then. It looks just as it did when it was purchased. He uses it to cart all kinds of things around, from flashlights and some tools, to cell phone and other personal items. This bag will stand up to regular use, and the adjustable strap is very comfortable to use either over the shoulder or across the chest for more security. Would buy again.
