This bag was definitely made by a woman, for women!!! The thought and detail that went into it, chefs kiss!! I bought it specifically to travel as my one personal item, its dimensions fit the parameters of the airline I was flying on, the straps are so comfortable to wear for extended periods, I absolutely loved the water bottle compartment because I am never without my Hydrojug handle water bottle. All the pockets on the inside are so useful! And the zippers on the side for my wallet, passport, etc for easy access going through security, etc was a game changer! Forever my travel bag.
