Love this backpack!! I brought it with me on a 4 month trip in Asia, and it was the perfect smaller backpack to have. I brought it on shorter 3-4 day excursions leaving my main pack behind, and it was the perfect size to fit clothes, toiletries, a small towel, everything you need. I love the front pockets along the straps as well, It's a perfect spot for your phone for easy storage and grabbing. It also fits very comfortably on the body, and lastly I got major use from the straps on the back of the pack, I would stuff my jacket or shoes in there which made packing all of my stuff a lot easier.
LOVE using for school! I use the Aerios 18 for my school backpack. It perfectly fits my computer (macbook air 13) , ipad air, notebook, a book, my 18oz hydroflask, and keys. I like the strap mesh pockets, perfect for straggler hairties, keys, or chapstick. One small thing, if the pack gets too bottom heavy (ipad, heavy calculator), the frame of the back will curve a bit. I usually have no problem because I have my laptop to even out the weight but on those days I don't it looks a bit wonky!
Very, very good for everything. Comfortable to carry, not too warm because of the design. It takes rain trousers, rain jacket and a warmer long sleeve pullover at the same time, so good capacity.
