I really liked the size and the pockets. The small zipper in the front wasn’t the easiest to open and close. If it is filled close to capacity or there are things that aren’t very light weight, the fold in the material that is supposed to keep the bottom strap attached doesn’t hold. I was working out with it on outside and multiple times the strap has popped off. No adjustments I made kept it in place with the weight/amount I had in it. I tried to them do the cross body option but it didn’t sit against my body properly no matter how I moved the straps and kept bouncing around. It was unclear from the description whether or not it is in any way water resistant which would have been nice to know. Disappointed this didn’t work out better because I was looking for something this size to run with, although I could see for a longer run the straps not being very comfortable as they are thick nylon. Would have preferred a light mesh or something.
