Good backpack, what is happening with diagonal carry?
I love this backpack, but how does diagonal carry work?? There does not appear to be a top loop. There aren’t any instructions for it and all of the videos online just say “wow, diagonal carry loop!” What about the top loop?
Great backpack
Great back for weekend trip or just a day hike. Have used it as well when I go to the office with laptop, etc
