D SLR Digital Video Sling Camera Backpack Daypack C2000 Water Resistant 4 Lenses
I was deciding between this bag and a slightly smaller one that was the same price, and went for this one because in the pictures I could see some straps on the side of the bag, and I thought, "perhaps those are for a tripod." And since the other one didn't have any straps but was the same price, I figured I wouldn't lose anything by taking the bet that I could carry a tripod with this bag. And guess what? I can! I don't know that I'd go jogging with a tripod strapped in, but for walking around it's great. Plus it carries almost all of my gear (I'm still at the stage where I want to have everything with me all the time) and is pretty comfortable. Much more comfortable than a shoulder bag, anyway. I did find it a little awkward to get used to putting on and taking off because the strap goes from the right shoulder to the left hip, and as a right-handed person I'm used to wearing cross-body bags from my left shoulder to my right hip. But that's just a little learning curve, not a serious defect. Also, for the weight to be properly distributed you have to attach the buckle that goes from the middle of the cross-body strap to the right hip part of the bag, which is not particularly fashionable but is very effective. Basically, I'd been hoping to find a bag that was small and yet carried everything while feeling feather-light and looked cool. Amazingly, that does not exist. But this bag is a pretty good second choice.

I just received my new camara bag. I was initially disapointed, I thought I had ordered a different bag. The bag I thought I ordered was from CUSCUS. This bag is from Onepolar. This bag appears to be well made. Pleanty of room for my Nikon D90 with a 105 lens. I also have a 300 lens that fits inside too. I paid $32.95 plus shipping. I'm pleased. Just showed it to a co-worker, and she ordered one this morning. Thanks for the speedy delivery.
Dakine 25-Litre Mission Pack
This is my second Dakine Mission Pack, and both have performed above and beyond my expectations. There are enough pockets to hold any and everything, and most pockets are fleece lined. The main compartment is large enough for sweatshirts and books, and comes with a laptop sleeve that can fit most laptops. Lastly, the build quality is astounding. My last one held up for 5+ years. The fabric is water resistant and the stitches are strong.Overall, I would highly recommend this backpack.

Initially I thought this pack would be too large, but I was wrong. It's perfectly sized and I love that I can carry my board with me on my pack. I was also worried that my phone with its case would not fit in the inside pocket, but it slid right in. It's an excellent backpack and I would recommend it to just about everyone.Read Best Reviews of Dakine 25-Litre Mission Pack Here
I took it with me on my trip to France. I now use it for school. Pack can enlarge or reduce in size by buckling and adjusting straps.Doesn't have toooo many pockets and zippers like my old one. Sturdy and soft. Easy on the eyes too.

Knomo Luggage Genova East West Carry-on
I was looking for a roller laptop bag that didn't look so industrial or like luggage. This was a perfect pick! The size and lightness in weight is unbeatable! It's pricey but comes with a two year warranty and most reviews I read had folks who used it up to 5 years with no issue. I get lots of compliments on it, it's easy to travel with. Great bag!!!
Drawstring Backpack Tote Bag with Mesh Pocket and Cellphone Holder
These are nice bags! I got three of them (in different colors) for myself and 2 friends who are vacationing together and planning to do some bike riding. I like the thicker straps, as string straps can dig in and hurt. They seem to be well-constructed, and have three pockets in addition to the main compartment. I'm decorating them with little patches, to spruce them up a little. Can't beat the price!!
I think I will be using this for years to come.

Dakine Capitol Pack
I wanted a backpack to hold books, a laptop, and assorted pens and supplies -making this one just the right fit. I like that it doesn't have too many compartments to get things lost in. There is just the main book section, and a front pocket with an inner zipper pocket. This was more than enough for the specific needs of a college student, who only needs the supplies for the next class and not an entire day's worth of folders and books.The design is classy, elegant, and masculine. The denim is what you would imagine in a nice pair of dark grey jeans. The muted colors are an asset when you're like me and wear tons of bright colors. Grey coordinates with everything! I would recommend this backpack for guys in college, and girls couldn't go wrong either.

I've only had this backpack for about one school year but I am super happy with it. It is simple, which I love, and seems to be really great quality. It has a laptop sleeve which is great, and a few smaller pockets in the small zipper pockets. It isn't too big but holds just the right amount of things that I need. I would definitely recommend this to anyone else.

1) The small pocket is hard to put your hand inside to retrieve anything you put in it. Plus there is no Velcro or anything to keep it inside.2) The handle is so stiff that you cannot easily pull it out to grab it. I want to grab my bag and go... struggle with it.
3) The bag should mount the straps so the bag is vertical... but no.. it is on the horizontal side... making it flop on your back at an odd angle.
4) Since i carry the bag over my right shoulder... the zipper and pockets are all upside down.
The back IS solid and seems that it will protect it well. I like a minimalist bag and this fits the bill... but the short comings are just not worth it.
I ended up spending a little more for the : ThinkTank Artificial Intelligence 15 bag. It is vertical... a zipper that opens for the side compartment with slots to hold smaller items... all while being the same size relative ti this bag.
The only half-complaint I have about the bag stems from its ultra-compact nature. I fit my MBA 13", the power adapter, a cleaning cloth, earbuds, iPhone charging cable, about a normal magazine's worth of paper, 2 or 3 pens/pencils, and not much else into this bag. It's space constrained enough that you have to actively plan on what you're bringing and in what order you're going to place items into the bag. It's a good minimalist exercise, but it can be stressful for some.
Overall, it's protective, good looking, lightweight, and well made. I would definitely recommend this to minimalist MBA 13" users.I bought the 13" bag in black/green for my 12.1" ASUS UL20A laptop. My intention was to use it as a compact bag for just my laptop if I was only going to the library or café for a few hours and didn't need to be plugged into an outlet, or to convert it into a sleeve to stash in my backpack for longer study sessions or for traveling.
I've been using a neoprene sleeve for the past few years, so this case represents an upgrade in both quality and padding. However, the removable straps are held onto the bag with plastic parts, which is a bit cheap-looking. I swung the bag with my laptop pretty hard several times, though, and didn't have a problem with the straps giving way, as another reviewer did. The inside lining is only okay, but I just finished looking at an Incase bag that had really soft faux fur, so I might be comparing the two subconsciously. I'm comfortable with the lining for my ASUS laptop, but might be a bit more paranoid with my MacBook.
There is a bit of extra space around the edges of my laptop. It doesn't bother me, as it allows me to keep my flash drives plugged in when I put my laptop away.
Depth-wise, it is a fairly tight fit. Still, I can also cram in an mp3 player, earbuds, SD card, flash drive, screen wipe, and a USB hub (or a set of mini USB cable adapters) all organized on a 7"x5" Grid-It (see uploaded photo), and the laptop adapter. Of course, it no longer looks sleek that way, but in a pinch, it will do. The Grid-It will fit in both the middle zippered pocket and the back pocket, but as it snags in the former and the latter is unsecured, I store it and the laptop adapter in the main compartment. I think the Monster MP OTG400 BK Outlets To Go 4 Outlet Travel Power Strip also fits into the main compartment, but I forget.
I currently use the smallest pocket to store Starbucks gift cards, as I don't like carrying them in my wallet, and tend to forget them when I head out to study. Although they haven't fallen out yet, I may put some Velcro at the opening for extra security. I haven't had any trouble retrieving the cards, even though the pocket is deep for them (it's meant to accommodate a smart phone).
The colors are darker in real life than on my computer screen. They don't look bad, just more muted.
Overall, I do like this sleeve / bag. However, it accommodates less than I thought it would comfortably do so, given the extra pockets. My laptop isn't the thinnest one out there, especially with the MacBook Air and Ultrabooks coming out, but I don't think it's the thickest, either, and my laptop adapter is pretty compact as well. Along with the plastic parts, I'd give this sleeve / bag 4 stars.

I bought this after I carried my Ipad to the doctor's office and it started raining and I had no umbrella. I had to hold my Ipad close as I leaned over it to protect it from the rain. Anyone seeing me probably thought I was bent over with pain.This is a nice bag and easily fits the Ipad 2 with the Apple magnetic cover in place. Looks well made. I bought the chocolate/orange one which does not look too girly. Perfect for me.

This bag is minimalist perfection, and I find it perfect for commuting to and from work. It even has a few exterior pockets, one can fit a small notebook and the other is sized for an iphone. The strap, hardware, and material are durable. I think this bag will stick around.

Pros: Feels like it will protect the laptop amazingly well. It is nicely designed for a work only laptop backpack.Cons: There just is no space for most things in this backpack. It also does not have a fold down laptop section.
The side pockets and the camera section is nice!
Dakine Women's 23-Litre EQ Duffel Bag
I love how cute it is and the size is perfect but there are no inner compartments or zippered pockets. All my stuff gets mixed together and it's annoying. I wish there were small pockets for my keys/phone/shampoo or a netted section to hold water bottle.

I love the design, I have a back pack with the exact same design. :DPlus, it'll be the perfect carry on luggage for a train ride.

I use this product as an overnighter bag, that was my sole purpose for purchasing it...well also because it matches my backpack from Dakine also. It is gym bag size in every dimension. I love the Jasmine material design...it makes for a unique travel set. It's not bland but very feminine for the adult woman. I gave it 5 stars because it does what it is intended for...to carry a few clothing items and toiletries.
Lug Slider 15 Laptop Pouch
This laptop case looks exactly like the photo. I have the grass green shade, and the coloring is spot on. I'm very please with the bag. It has two pockets, one is for the laptop and has a nice fleece-like lining to protect the computer. The other side has 2 larger compartments and 2 pen/cil compartments.I think one thing that would make it better is if it had the option to clip the long shoulder strap on so it could hang sideways but that's just a thought from the brain of a short person!
Overall, I am very excited I ordered this and hope others do too!

Hard to tell from pictures but was looking for the one that had a bit more grey this one is just all black. Model numbers did not help finding the version with more of a grey center.Looks great still, if its like my last one they last a few years before they start falling apart, start to get sloppy at the hinge and expansion areas. Even though it was never overloaded.

Golla 16-Inch Kirk Sling Sleeve, G1302
This is a stylish bag that is adequate for the laptop user who doesn't need a lot of accessories. The one small velcro side pocket is just barely large enough to fit my laptop charger and a pair of headphones. if I needed to carry more than that, I think I'd need a different bag. While the pocket's diminutive size is something to be aware of, my only real complaint is that the material comprising the bag's exterior doesn't clean up well when everyday use leaves it a little stained or spotted. Then again, the bag isn't marketed as being stain-resistant.Save 17% Off

Got this bag for my 5 year old daughter to take to ballet classes. It is perfect! Good quality and super cute. Looks small but has lots of space on the inside to fit extra clothes, ballet slippers, tap shoes, and a bottle of water. My daughter can carry it easily.Update 1/30/13. After only 2 uses of this bag, the strap is coming apart from one side of the bag!! I am so disappointed. It does not look easy to mend either. I have contacted the seller and am awaiting a response.
Update 2/19/13. Customer service sent me a brand new bag without any fuss. Didn't even make me ship back the old one. Let's see if it lasts. I'm satisfied for now...
Update 6/10/13. The 2nd one has held up well, no problems. I think the purchase was worth it, especially for the price and given the excellent customer service. Am bumping my stars from 3 to 4.

why the blue color was discounted so much compared to the other colors, I don't know. Over purchased maybe, but it was another one of those great deals that can be found on Amazon. We bought 2 because I've used Seal Line products for years and they are the best. These were no exception. They're big enough around to drop a rolled up XL sleeping back into and still have around 8-10" on top for sundries.
Level III Lv3 Molle Assault Pack Backpack--ACU
I ordered the ACU patterned pack even though it wasn't pictured. I was hopeful that I would get the pattern in the first place, and that it would look good.Upon receiving the pack, It was the correct pattern and looked great! the pack looks small, but has tons of room and expands quite a bit.
The pack has tons of pockets, and a spot for a hydration bladder, tons of adjustable straps and tons of MOLLE attachment points.

i have recived this bag on the date they said it would get here. It was smaller than what i have expected to be but it does expand to hold more items. Zippers seem fine and all the compartments are pretty useful to hold misc items. I gave it four stars because the straps tend to come off and seems that the strap holders will break in time. Being said it is a pretty good bag. On some occasions the shoulder straps came off but was easily put back into place. I got this bag for hunting purposes and holds what i need on my hunting trips and by far the best hunting bag that i got to date.

BABYBJORN Diaper Backpack Active
I do love that this diaper bag is a backpack, as well as the nifty insulated bottle/cup holders, but there is just not enough room in the bag. The shape makes the inside space to thin and I find it hard to organize my stuff in a way that I don't have to dig around for what I am looking for. The front pocket is better but still very thin. I use cloth diapers, and there is just enough room to shove them in, plus the changing pad which is just a dinky plastic almost pad. I have loved all my other Bjorn products but this one came up short.
My daughter is still young so instead of using the front section for food, I use the mesh pockets for travel size powder, lotion, wipes, bibs, etc. I stick diapers in this section, too. It's nice to be able to unzip this part and have everything organized and where I can see it. There's also a big zippered pocket on the inside front flap. The main compartment is big enough for my wallet, checkbook, three changes of clothes (3-6 mth size) receiving blanket and a small toy or two. There's a pocket near the top that's perfect for keys. The bottle pockets come in handy for burp cloths (I breastfeed so don't need to carry bottles). The cell phone pocket is great...it holds my cell phone securely so no worries about it falling out. The handle on top is nice and sturdy. It's a comfortable backpack and looks great with the Baby Bjorn Backpack Active or all by itself.
Buy BABYBJORN Diaper Backpack Active Now
For the most part, this is a great backpack. It looks nice, and seems to be very well made. However, the straps of the backpack are set too widely apart for my frame (I'm 5'1", 115 lbs) so the edges of the straps scrape against the skin of my inner arms when I walk, which is very uncomfortable. I had to return the bag.Read Best Reviews of BABYBJORN Diaper Backpack Active Here
Pros:1) Light colored lining that allows easy finding for items (no black hole effect)
2) Light weight
3) Stands upright on its own
4) Insulated cup/bottle compartments to give you an idea, they are roomy enough to easily fit standard size playtex straw cups.
5) I find it quite roomy to fit everything I need.
6) Straps are more comfortable than other backpack styles I have tried (especially comparing to Petunia Pickle Bottom, which is horrible!)
7) Many mesh pockets for organization.
8) Changing pad is big and nicely padded, and also waterproof.
9) The shoulder straps actually hangs perfectly on my Peg Perego stroller. Although this may not be the case for everyone.
10) Great sporty modern look.
11) Well constructed and sturdy material.
Cons:
1) Cell phone mesh holder on the side is not big enough for certain phones like a blackberry.
2) Lack of pockets that are sized just right for diapers and wipes. This is probably my biggest compaint about this bag (and thus the subtraction of one star). Although I resorted to putting a couple of diapers in the big mesh pocket in the front. They stick out a bit, but works. As for the wipes, which I use all the time, I just stick it in the main front compartment, and I don't mind that.
3) Changing pad's material can attract hair and dirt. Because of this I still use my old Fleurville changing pad.
Overall I would recommend this bag. I don't know why people think this bag is too small, because it really is not. To give a better idea, it definitely has a lot more room than say Fleurville's sling tote (which is a great bag by the way if you want a smaller diaper bag), and has just as much room as a Petunia Pickle Bottom, in my opinion. By the way, stay away from Petunia Pickle Bottom if you are looking for a backpack style bag (I tried that first because I got sucked into the pretty patterns, but it's VERY heavy even when empty, and the straps are very uncomfortable, and definitely not enough pockets).
I've been looking for a backpack style diaper bag for a while, and I really would recommend this bag.

Not like to previous BabyBjorn bag I purchased (3 years ago) this is a great bag.1. It has a firm construction which makes it very convenient
2. The compartments are very functional
My only problem is that the bottle compartments are small and do not hold a 1 liter water bottle. I would rather like to have a small bottle holder for feeding and another external holder for larger bottles just like in outdoor backpacks
