Light Weight Drawstring Tote and Backpack in One in Black

Light Weight Drawstring Tote and Backpack in One in BlackThink nylon jacket material for this one. Very small. Child size. Good idea. Just too small.

Make one for Adults please! I suppose if you could sew you could use it as a pattern and scale this up for adults but why bother?

Eagle Creek Travel Gear Susie Travel Clutch

Eagle Creek Travel Gear Susie Travel ClutchI bought this bag for an upcoming trip to Ireland but it has been in constant use since I unpacked it. It is large enough to hold all my credit cards, my cell phone, glasses and soft case, check book, pens and pencils, cash and even my point and shoot camera (though that made it bulge a bit much). Small enough to fit inside what I consider a medium sized hand bag. The main inside compartments are secured with a zipper, there is also a unzippered compartment behind that and another zippered compartment on the back. I has a nice long strap (quite sturdy) that fits over even my bulky body. Not exactly an evening bag but would work for all but the most dressy occasions.

I absolutely love this bag! It is everything it says and more. It has held up now with daily use for several years. The color is beautiful, inside and out. I get compliments on it all the time. It holds so much. Perfect to carry on its own or drop into my tote bag. Sturdy handles and closures. This is one of the best bags I have ever owned.

Many compartments that hold a lot but closes flat. Inside design is beautiful. Adjustable strap comes in very handy when one wants clutch close to their body

Tenba Vector 637-293 Daypack - Large, Oxygen Blue

Tenba Vector 637-293 Daypack - Large, Oxygen BlueI purchased the green colored bag. The green is a very weird color. It is darker than what you see on the screen more olive think of a jarred green olive and you hit the color right on the head. It is not however a dark olive.

There is one more velcro partition than what is pictured in the fully loaded bag in the picture collections. In the middle where the black camera body with attached lens is place, in the supplied version there is another partition just like the ones on either side that contain the lens in the picture. The partitions are very customizable because there is a lot of velcro on the partitions which makes the partitions easy to use. A big plus for me.

One thing you can't see on the picture is that the base of the upper compartment is fit in place with velcro. It is not sewed in place. That is very good from a customization standpoint because it allows you to put a very lone item in the compartments, essentially extending from the top of the bag to the bottom. I wonder if it is a good thing for strength though it seems like the velcro is very strong and can hold nearly everything you put into the compartment, but I still wonder...

This feature of the moveable bottom of the top compartment is interesting it allows me to fit my Canon 7D with a 70-200 L series lens ( a very big lens for those who are not familiar with it), along with flash and other lenses. That is tough to do in most regular camera bags unless they are large.

The computer compartment fits my 15 inch laptop tightly not a lot of extra room in the width, especially with the zipper placement which makes the opening a bit tight.

The material seems very strong, and smooth. It is attractive to look at. The zippers seem strong. and sturdy.

There are quite a few pockets. However, what is missing are some large pockets that would fit a cell phone or wallet when I use my camera bag, I don't use my purse, and I need some pockets to accommodate my essentials. These are missing in this bag.

The padding is excellent. Firm and plenty thick. Seems very protective.

Overall:

I love that this bag is not black, is so easily customized, fits everything, seems safe for camera equipment with good quality packing.

I don't love the color (even though I am happy to have something other than black!), and I don't love the sloping front of the top compartment I wish they had squared or rounded it off so that more could be fit into the top compartment, and I wish there were some larger pockets that can fit wallets, or larger accessories.

Overall, I am happy with the bag and would recommend it. Make sure you like the colors they are a bit unusual. If you are into the earthy green/olive color, then it should work well for you.

Very nice -lightweight -fits lots of stuff -good earth friendly color --well organized taking it on a trip to Europe!! Very comfortable shoulder straps -places for eyeglasses/sunglasses and/or water bottle quick grab on the sides.

This pack is cute and extremely functional.

I have it filled with one body, three prime lenses and an iPad. It isn't large enough to hold my back-up body or any other lenses (especially a 70-200).

I have always preferred a back-pack to a bag or a cute purse and this is just as comfortable as the lowepro pack -but it's red and fun!

I love the size and color. It's comfortable to wear. The only thing I wish it had was a zipped wallet area for credit cards and some cash.

This back is very similar in design to another bag I use for carry-on on flights. But this bag is lighter in weight and doesn't stick out so much. I actually like the color of this bag, too. The olive green fits with most of my wardrobe, which is mostly nature colors of blue, brown, black and khaki.

The velcro inside is adjustable. I can carry my Canon 5DMII with a 100mm lens attached to it, a flash unit, two other lenses, and several hoods. Smaller items like batteries and memory cards go in the upper compartment.

The computer slit opens only from the top and goes only half-way down one side. While a 15-inch laptop does fit in this, it's a snug fit. I recommend this compartment be used instead for a smaller tablet and its accessories, although having them may be pinching against the back.

This is a nice day back, stylish and usable. For those just needing a camera bag for one camera and a lens or two, this makes a nice pack for all that plus other personal items needed for the day.

The Glo Bag SET - The Ultimate Gym Locker Organizer Backpack WITH Hanging Cosmetic Bag: Gold

The Glo Bag SET - The Ultimate Gym Locker Organizer Backpack WITH Hanging Cosmetic Bag: GoldThis bag is so great. It was stolen out of my truck less than 2 hours after the first use. It held all of my gear with room for more. I am 6'2" wear mens 11 shoe, everything fits perfect. I did however purchase this for 99.00+12.00 s/h. Now I see the price has went up to 124.00 + s/h I am buying again, guess I have to pony up for the extra $$$. That is how much I love this bag. BTW I was out of my truck less than 10 min, when someone busted the back window and took it from the floor board. Smash and grab. Even the thieves want this bag:-) I am also buying new workout shoes also.

KF Baby Diaper Bag Insert Organizer - 15.2 x 7.2 x 8 inch, Black

KF Baby Diaper Bag Insert Organizer - 15.2 x 7.2 x 8 inch, BlackI use the organizer for my Kate Spade diaper bag. Basically, my diaper bag have tons of pockets, however, it is hard to find stuff or dig things out. The organizer keeps my contents organized and makes them easy to find.

No longer have to reach in and dig for things that I need, now they are right where I want them. Grab and go!

I have a final betsy Johnson bag that Imam always digging ton find surf in, I put this in there and it fit perfectly. It looks neat and organized. It's not as tall as the bag itself so I have Rooney to lay folded blanket or a changing pad on top of everything. Recommended for big bags only!

I bought a very expensive gorgeous large leather tote. The leather is soft, the purse is very large and it turned into a black hole for all my stuff. I could not find a thing in there and could not stand it anymore. Since my purse is very large I decided to order this product because it is one of the largest organizer inserts. I know it is really meant for diaper bags but if it does the job, who cares! It is fantastic. It fit perfectly into my purse and it organized me immediately. There is a little section for anything I need. I keep my wallet in one section, my makeup in another, etc. I can see it all now and not have to fumble through to find something. It also stands up well enough so that my purse has more shape and does not collapse inward. I am looking forward to using this a lot. The only negative is that the material could be higher quality. I think it will hold up though for my needs.

More pockets! Perfect! Although I should've gotten the smaller one, I opted for the big one because of the measurements of my bag. It was a little too big when expanded.

Incase Nylon Backpack, Black (CL55301)

Incase Nylon Backpack, BlackFirst of all, I purchased the stone gray colored bag. It should be noted that the color is not actually grey, but an odd green color. Keep this in mind as you choose a color.

Second, after four months of regular use this backpack was packed back up and shipped back to the manufacturer (at my own expense). The right strap pulled right out of the stitching. I am hoping Incase can solve this issue, and that the pack I received was a fluke.

Third, this newer redesign of the Incase backpack seems to be a step down in terms of craftsmanship. The straps don't have the same level of comfort and the pack itself doesn't hold its shape as well.

I bought this bag to replace a previous Incase bag that I had for a few years and used heavily. I really liked my old one so sought out the same brand. The design changed a bit from the old one: A few less zippers. BUT, the big problem is that is simply feels cheaper. Lighter fabric, thinner padding, cheaper zipper pulls. This is not a cheap bag, but it feels cheap!! I feel guilty about returning it since i have used it for 2 weeks, but I for sure will not buy this brand again. Premium price but not premium product.

Buy Incase Nylon Backpack, Black (CL55301) Now

Purchased backpack from J&R middle of May for college. It has great looks, surprising capacity (due to its height), and an undeniable high quality feel.

I would suggest this backpack to everyone except for the fact that one of my shoulder straps has begun to disconnect from the base of the bag after only two months of use. The stitching has popped out and the interior foam is visible. The strap is still connected, but barely. The shoulder area of the strap is still intact. It won't be long until the base disconnects and the strap becomes non-functional, however.

I am looking to get a replacement bag from either J&R or Incase!

I brought this item to replace a previous backpack, and it was great at first, then within merely 2 months, the Right strap pulled right out of the stitching, and I can see the careless stitching, and the cheap materials used inside.

This bag looks like a very awesome backpack, and the price is also very high, but the it DOES NOT worth it! Please reconsider before buying it!

Want Incase Nylon Backpack, Black (CL55301) Discount?

I have owned several Incase products in the past several years ranging from laptop sleeves to iPhone cases and even a DSLR Camera bag so when it came time for a new backpack I decided to give this one a try.

Admittedly, I am pretty hard on packs. I carry it every day and usually have it loaded down with things I use day to day at work (office environment). I feel that this pack is poorly constructed with sub-par materials.

The front pouch zipper pull came off during the first week of use. The faux fur interior attracts and holds dust and dirt. Every single time I put the pack on, the left shoulder strap pulls almost all the way out forcing you to readjust the length setting (seriously.. every time. So annoying).

I appreciated the placement of and number of pouches and pockets, especially the soft-lined stash pocket at the top. Incase suggests using this for your phone, but I found that it works best for sunglasses. I did find myself missing the typical pouches on the side to hold a bottle.

I ended up throwing this one in the top of my closet and buying the Patagonia Fuego Backpack. It has almost identical pouch configuration but with a far superior build quality plus it has somewhere to put bottles on the sides!

Arc'teryx Blade 30 Backpack - 1831cu in Black, One Size

Arc'teryx Blade 30 Backpack - 1831cu in Black, One SizeI bought the 2004 version of this bag and with daily, heavy wear, it is still looking nearly new in 2011, almost 2012. You can cram an amazing amount of stuff in this bag laptop, books, papers, cords, and everything has its place. My husband calls it the "magic bag," and asks what else could I possibly be carrying in there. It's comfortable, adjustable, and rides well if you have to walk a lot. I think it will still be a few years before I retire this bag, and when I do, I will be buying another one.

As you'd expect from Arc'teryx, bombproof quality & design. I've used this bag all day everyday, packed with laptop & heavy books/folders & more. The straps are comfortable, as are the handles. Perfect for travelling as well -

Sounds like I work for them! Overall Money well spent (Which for a student is saying something).

Cardinal Stripes 13-Inch Netbook Notebook Laptop Sleeve Bag Carrying Case for Apple, Acer, ASUS, De

Cardinal Stripes 13-Inch Netbook Notebook Laptop Sleeve Bag Carrying Case for Apple, Acer, ASUS, Dell, HPPROs:

mine didn't have chem smell issues.

beautiful colors.

double zipper convenient for charging in case.

good spill protection.

and CONs:

could have at least one pocket.

could be thicker.

OVERALL...Nice sleeve. Terrific price.

I was nervous this wouldn't fit my 13" MacBook, but it fits perfectly. The zipper cover on the inside is great, it keeps the edges of the computer extra protected. It smelled a little bit like chemicals, but that has worn off in the first couple of days. My only issue is that I also have a hard shell case for my computer, and I have found that this barely fits over the hard shell case. It still zips, but it looks like it would wear out. So I've been using this instead of the hard shell I think it is better protection.

Peppa Pig 'P For Preety ' School Bag Rucksack Backpack

Peppa Pig 'P For Preety ' School Bag Rucksack BackpackThis bag is fantastic, and we get compliments on it all the time! It is the perfect size for my (taller than average) 3 year old. She is able to carry two dance outfits (2 leotards, 2 pairs of tights and 2 pairs of socks), a pair of tap shoes and a pair of ballet shoes, with a little room to spare. If it fit any more in it, I think it would be too heavy for a young one to carry. The bag seems to be sturdy we have been using it for a few months, now. One thing you can't see from the pictures is the back of the bag is (pink) transparent. It looks nice, but it was a surprise when we received it. I would certainly buy this bag again.

This is a very small backpack. It's only about three inches deep. The entire thing is made of plastic similar to a rain coat or one of those clear plastic umbrellas. The backpack could fit a beanie baby or similar sized stuffed animal (probably more than one) but never a full-sized stuffed animal unless you really crammed it in. We wanted this for our 2 and 1/2 year-old because she has an ever-growing posse of stuffed animals that MUST travel with us whenever we leave the house. It's always cumbersome to carry the posse everywhere and worry about losing one of these absolutely essential creatures. My husband and I live in absolute fear of anything happening to one very special stuffed animal in particular who is with her 24/7. We figured maybe we could free up hands and purse space (and mental space) by having her carry the animals herself, zipped securely in a backpack. She's a big Peppa fan so we had high hopes for this backpack. Sadly, this backpack won't fit the bill for us. The backpack would fit a few coloring books, some crayons and maybe a small snack. That's probably what most parents are looking for anyway. Overall it's very cute and if you have a Peppa the Pig fan in your life they'll love this backpack regardless of whether they can fit the things you want in it. We'll keep ours for a Christmas gift and have Santa fill it with books.

Fieldline Black Canyon Backpack

Fieldline Black Canyon BackpackI got one of these locally for about $10, and it's OK at that price point.

I chose this bag to hold an emergency kit for the car. I have a WEATHERHANDLER for basic breakdown stuff, but felt I might need a little more if I end up stranded for a couple of days or hiking home for some reason. Since it will be sitting in my trunk most of the time, this inexpensive pack seems a good choice.

It's a pretty simple bag. There's a large main compartment, a small front compartment with three internal pockets, and a pouch for a water bottle on the side (see customer images). The main compartment will easily hold a fleece sleeping bag, a 1-man backpacking tent, and probably a change of clothes if you pack them flat. I can get a heavy poncho, several tools, and a shaving kit in the front compartment without too much trouble. The bottle pouch works, but is kind of short and you have to keep an eye on it if you have a tall bottle. The pack is pretty comfortable for the price.

While this bag is reasonably well designed, it is not particularly well constructed. I don't expect it to fall apart on a two-day walk along a road, but I wouldn't rely on it on a rough hike through the forest. I could probably tear the straps off bare-handed if I made an effort, the zippers are marginal, and the material of the pack itself is lightweight. I actually bought a pack at a local bargain store for $5 that was somewhat smaller and less comfortable, but much more durable.

For a get home bag that might see light to moderate use after sitting in my trunk for a year, this Fieldline is perfectly adequate.

$10 at walmart. fits some stuff. great for a school pack. not exactly great for hunting in it tears easily took it out once and the bottom blew out (probably because I had like 60 pounds of logging chains in it).

Crossover Tote&Backpack/ Shoulder Tote Bag/ Multifunction Backpack

Crossover Tote&Backpack/ Shoulder Tote Bag/ Multifunction Backpack, NavyJust great, this bag is awesome. I use it for my bike, going to university classes, shopping, and even camping. Very versatile little bag, and its very lightweight so don't expect it to lug 5 textbooks, but 1 or 2 works great, perfect for groceries. The straps are very long so I cut them, biking with those slapping you sucks, but I imagine this allows it to work for people of all shapes.

Just great; a cute very useful bag.

I like the bags size, handles, durable material. Expect to wash the bag as there is an odor to the material the bag is made with. I didn't do it yet so I cannot tell you how well it washes.

Buy Crossover Tote&Backpack/ Shoulder Tote Bag/ Multifunction Backpack Now

I have only used this as a grocery tote, so I don't know how it works as a backpack.

The biggest plus, for me is that because the bottom can be packed flat, there is not the everything-sinks-to-the bottom lower back fatigue/ache of a backpack. And when you need to place items in it, it stands up, it doesn't lose it's shape and become limp and unmanageable.

I've been using this every single day since I bought it several months ago.

I put it to a brutal test; heavy books back and forth from the library; too many groceries.

Shows no signs of wear at all.

I will buy another when I finally whip it to death.
