Small but Mighty
I recently purchased this pack for daily commute via public transportation. It is great for a minimalist commuter, only book, phone, headphones and other essentials. Very sturdy and comfortable to wear. The straps are easy to adjust and can easily be molded to your liking.

Backpack was a gift for an avid hiker. It was a great size for day hikes and she absolutely loved it.

Super small!
The measurements are way off. We got this as an Allegiant air personal item. It was very much smaller than the specs… maybe those are flat measurements? You definitely cannot pack a long weekend worth of clothes, etc in it. I got it also for a hiking bag and it will probably be good for a day hike. Shoulder straps are not very cushioned, so not sure how great it will be. If you want an Allegiant Airlines personal item bag where you can max it out, then go with the Luzon 24L. I had room to spare in that one! This bag isn’t that attractive and is kinda $$

Love the size!
A lot of times the things that are more for rugged outdoors look very masculine and I like this one because it’s small yet dirty and durable! I highly recommend!

Very versatile
I am happy with the quality of the backpack. It has enough storage pockets and straps. The chest and waist strap are removable which adds to the possible configurations. It should serve well as a carry on and day pack.

Seems high quality
Looks really nice and high quality and I think it’s very cute, just haven’t gotten the chance to use it yet cause I bought it as a gift and the occasion hasn’t come around yet.
