I am extremely delighted with this backpack which I use as my handbag. It is plenty big enough for an umbrella and cardigan. Not for ipad or files and lunch. Of course one can stuff a lot more in. I don't do this. Very well made and I like the one main compartment and not numerous sections. As the two zips open from the mid section to the top, when you open the bag the front top half flips down and the whole inside is visible! Very convenient. I can also open just one zip just to get my wallet without having to put the bag down and open two zips. This works very well for me and I am thrilled to have bought online without the hassle of the shop. The material seems strong and robust enough to last for many years and the bag looks smart and not too big to look like you are going hiking. I live in the city and do not want a sporty looking bag. I am happy with the price. A great buy for me.
