Urban Sport Polyester Multiple Compartment Messenger Cross Body Outdoor Biking Backpack - 3 Color O

I don't really know why other reviewers are claiming the zippers are so weak, they're pretty normal if compared to regular $30+ bags. I wouldn't recommend this bag for a schoolkid with the average load of textbooks that I had when I was in grade school (literally 25lbs+ of textbooks and materials daily) but otherwise this bag is perfect. I can throw my gym crap in it, my netbook, and still have room to pack snacks and drinks. The extra pockets on the front and sides allow me to keep all of my other accessories neatly tucked away. I'm using this for uni and motorcycling primarily. The strap is comfortable and adjusts easily, and the range of it is pretty big, so if you're a bigger guy or gal this would be fine for you.

After years of trial and error with nearly every brand of backpacks (local and international), I rarely deviate from buying JanSport (and sometimes Targus, REI and Colombia). This little guy seems to belong to the same category in terms of style, functionality, versatility, and durability as Colombia, although I haven't quite put it throught the stress test (heavy load for 2+ years of abusive use).

It's longer and roomier than my old Colombia sling bag, which was very typical of most sling bags in the market. Unlike the Colombia that allowed for switching the strap from one side to another, this one has a fixed strap (center at the top, to lower left on the back). Nice padding on the back, with plenty of pockets have made it my most frequently used bag on day to day basis.

I'm a 15-yr old kid and I use this for school and casual use, just carrying around some paperbacks, a journal, and maybe a hoddie. Since May (it's now August) I have been using this very often and the only thing wrong with it that I can tell is that after stuffing it so much with a hoodie, or school supplies, it has tore a tiny hole in the front pocket from the main pocket. Other than that, this thing is great and I love. Price is awesome too.

I have owned the bag for about 1 month now. I am in grad school, and need to carry folders with notes (8x11) and an iPad. I also carry some meds, some clothing items, and some food items. This bag is large enough for all that without difficulty. It got crowded with 4 folders (each about 3/4 " thick, 2 text books (about 3" total), the iPad, and gym shorts and shirt (but the zipper still closed without much effort). It seems well made so far. The shoulder pad is comfortable. There are several pockets to carry items. The small one in the front is perhaps smaller than I would like, but overall is a great bag. For the price it is exceptional unless it falls apart in a few months. I think for your average student this would be great (I was worried that it might be too small, but it is a very generous size).

Update for 5/2013.. Have been using for a couple of years now, and it has held up great. Padding on the shoulder strap is not quite as full, but I carry a lot of stuff as noted. I have also been taking my MacBook Pro 15" screen in it, and it handles the size (I can't close it all the way though), and the weight well. If they keep the build quality up, this is an easy recommendation from my standpoint.

This is my first review ever posted and for me to do all this work you know something is wrong. All I carry is a 32 oz water bottle in the bag and the fabric started to rip open 3 times already( sew repair). I also notice other places started to rip. Very cheap material even on very light use.
