The Perfect Dad Tote
Dang I love this bag. It's the perfect tote I've been wish other totes would be. It's huge, so it's easy to throw bulky stuff in there for quick trips - beach stuff, kids stuff, soccer balls, ropes, that random stuff you might need on camping trips. The drop pockets give you just enough organization for small items, and the shoulder strap is great when you need it, and easily removable if you don't. Same for the "cover"; it doesn't get in my way but it's an option. The beige liner makes everything easy to see. The colors are ugly, but there is so much right with this bag, I love it anyways.
King of bags. BIFL bag. bag of all bags.
Best bag ever. Does everything. carries everything. lightweight, super strong. bag for every family activity. fits all gear and snacks too. perfect for zombie apocalypse, work desert or shark fishing. REI, please make these in every color. add some pockets.
Awsome bag
I purchased this bag specifically for car journeys, and it has excelled in its role. Surprisingly, it has also become our go-to bag for daily use, proving to be indispensable for hauling our children’s gear to their soccer and baseball matches. The drawstring closure is particularly effective at securing the contents. I would definitely suggest this bag as a versatile option for anyone.
Great bag for families!
This bag is amazing. I have been using it to take my family's gear to the local climbing gym. It holds everyone's stuff with room to spare. We are a family of 5, which automatically means I have to carry a lot of stuff for activities. I want to get another one for our other adventures because it has become the place that all of the climbing gear lives.
This is going to be really useful!
This is the perfect bag for my intended purpose! I bought it to use as a gym bag that I can just slip my everyday bag into without transferring any individual items. (I always forget something or other.) I'll also be using it on any other occasions when I have that one extra thing that's too big for my everyday bag. It has just the right amount of design to be really useful in tons of scenarios. The side pockets are big enough for my largest water bottle! The way the top facing causes the drawstring closure to fold down neatly when not in use us really clever, and it has just enough structure to stand on its own. The straps are great, too: the short straps are long enough to go over a shoulder, but short enough to carry in your hand, and the long shoulder strap can be attached on both sides, removed, or it can be attached on only one side, hanging down into the bag so it's out of the way, but won't be lost. The side grip handles will come in handy if it contains something heavy, and they look like they'll do a good job of retaining something awkward like an umbrella which might otherwise fall out of the side pocket. I was near an REI recently, before I ordered this, and stopped in to poke around. I asked an employee about this bag. He looked it up, and although they didn't have one in the store, he recognized it immediately. He told me REI had some extra fabric, and had made these bags as a gift for employees, and that he loved his! So now I have an awesome new bag that has an awesome backstory.
Best tote ever!
I love this bag! It can fit incredible amounts of stuff in it and I love the cinch top. It's made of durable materials and has versatile straps. Whether I'm loading it up with things to carry in to the office, using it for groceries, or weekend trips this bag is going to do the job! Please bring back more colors!
PERFECT
This tote is perfect, and is unique as far as what I've been able to find anywhere else. I use it to transport expensive costume components, so the tough material and water resistance are key. Plus the drawstring gathered top cover is simply perfect to keep anything from falling on or staining the contents. I'm tempted to buy another one just in case this ever goes out of production.
All-purpose, style and comfort
I love this bag so much! I actually use it for work. It fits my lunch box, drink thermoses , miscellaneous items, leaving me plenty of room for additional items I pick up along the way. It fits on the floor behind the driver and passengers seat as advertised. It’s comfortable to carry and I love the look. It has so many uses! Highly recommend!!!
Best Tote
I bought this bag and it’s so sturdy, well made and versatile for anyone and everyone. I love that you can close it with the strap and has the perfect amount of pockets. This is made for the parents who want to have the all in one bag.
Good gym bag
Good bag for climbing gym Holds everything and a 50m rope.
