    I've been watching the evolution (or devolution) of the Trail 25 and have been saddened at how it has moved away from this amazing design. I use this backpack everyday -- and have for almost 2 years. I use it as my day bag. I put my laptop and books in it, my electronics gear, 1L water bottle, bug spray, hard-drives, glasses, gym gear -- it all fits perfectly! I hope this design is brought back. It has been hands down the best.

    For the budget Airlines that only allow one bag under the seat this is perfect. It's just under the max size so you can still fit your feet on both sides but fits under the seat. Carries a surprising amount of clothes and whatever else you need. With this and the lookout 40 bag I carry this in front and the bigger bag on my back and travel all over comfortably and don't have a massive 65L bag to lug around on my back. Instead it's a more balanced way to carry the load.

    I've had this bag for several months and have been so happy to have it. So far my bags been to Hawaii, San Francisco, Jackson Hole, Island Park, Yellowstone, and Provo. Great for organizing and very roomy. Comfort is top notch and allows breathing. Water bottle pockets are deep and will hold 32 oz water bottle no problem. Durability seems to be doing just fine as well. I've now been using it for school. It will hold a laptop and a few text books no problem. I would recommend this bag to minimalist travelers also since it is very roomy and can still be used as only a personal item. Traveling to Hawaii I was able to pack for 7 days in just this bag.

    I have only been using this backpack for a couple of days now, but so far I am completely satisfied. The bottle pockets are larger than I expected and there are interior pockets that I have found to be very useful. More photos of the interior pockets would benefit other potential buyers. I noticed that it has excellent padding on the straps. I plan to use this backpack daily and really like this feature.

    I bought this bag more than a year ago and it is holding up wonderfully! It's been all over the world with me- Spain, Costa Rica, and many places in the States- and I am soooo pleased with it. It holds way more than expected and is pretty water resistant. The side buckles are useful, too, and the front loops come in handy. Overall, it's a really phenomenal back pack. I could not be happier with this buy.

    I needed an everyday diaper bag to carry gear for my two boys. The storage is perfect and there is room for purse items as well as diapers and everything else. Still have room to add in the jacket or lunch bag as well. The only downside is the straps. I am 5'4 and petite, at the shoulder the straps are too wide set. I also feel they are too thick at the under arm. I'm hoping they break in and soften up a bit. Just seems designed more for a man, but still comfortably distributes the weight. I have removed the waist and chest straps as this is my everyday bag.

    The right price and the right size. What more can be said? I needed a grab and go pack to carry essentials for short day trips around town or the country. This fit the bill perfectly. 3 zippered storage areas makes separating and organizing all my daily essentials easy. And the two extra large stretch mesh side pockets are great for bottles of all sizes. The construction and materials seem to be quite good. I expect it to be durable enough to meet my needs and will most likely exceed all my expectations.
