I bought this because I needed a sturdy Rucksack for exercise where I like to carrying 30 - 40 lbs of rocks. After ripping 2 cheap rucksacks I searched for something more sturdy. This pack is made out of old fashioned canvas & leather. It's thick and so far seems sturdy. It's much nicer looking than what I need it for LOL Some reviewers complained the magnets are not strong enough. I found them to be fine for what they do. If you over pack the pockets I can see them popping open but I find them to be adequate for my needs because I don't overpack the pockets. Its a nice trade off to make them pretty easy to open but if you are concerned of them being secure no matter what they may not be the best for you. It all depends what ypu are using it for. This is a nice looking pack and strong so its good for I use it for and it would also be a nice pack to carry whatever in an urban environment where you might want the looks of the leather & canvas.

I bought this for my husband and he loves it. Well stitched, and the quality is superb. Plenty of room for jackets, computer or bottle or two of wine and picnic lunch. It has nice holders for water bottles and the straps are well padded and comfortable My only con is it is heavy, but my husband thinks the weight is fine. It really is a good looking well made backpack that should last for years. Read more

Its a fairly sturdy bag and looks great. It is a bit heavy and the stitching isn't very solid in some places. I will definitely continue to use this bag and hopefully it will make it's way across the states with me. Hopefully the makers will see these images and make adjustments during production. Read more

Holds everything I need for whatever a day can present. Feels so good, it seems to make the same stuff from my old backpack feel lighter. Built to last. The only zipper is on a perfect little wallet pocket. The rest of the pockets are secured with magnets, and adjustable with leather belt straps. After a life of zippers, it took some getting used to but this is a great alternative. The magnets are adequate and the parts are shaped like a tapered snap. So they hold even better when pulled laterally. Set the straps to fit your normal stuff and it works great, easy. Inner pockets always suck, and so do the ones in this pack. However, they're the easiest to work with so far. It is impressive how well the outer pockets hold my things. The material is nice and thick. It seems to keep my things in place well. I am very happy with this backpack and actually excited to use it more. That feels weird. Good. Thank you Read more

Terrific bag, it is my go to for festivals and has held up well since I bought it. Is a tad smaller than it seems but the canvas does have a small amount of give to it. Read more

I bought this for a present for my roommate. He loves it. The wax treatment is heavy without making it hard and unbendable. The leather accents and straps are nice looking and the magnets work well for now. If they start to lose their magnetism, I will epoxy them together and use the buckles. The buckles are not the heaviest duty type but are nice looking and functional. It would have been nice for the bottom to be covered in leather, but if it were, the price would have to be higher. My roommate is very happy with the bag and says he would recommend it as a quality product at a good price. Read more

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS BACKPACK! It gives you a unique vintage look. I love that it has so many pockets and a laptop compartment. It has a structure but it gives you a sense of “baggy ness”. The canvas is somewhat hard tho. It’ll take a little time to break in but very great quality. I was a littler nervous that it might be too big but it’s just like a normal school backpack size (I think ). It’s a little heavy but I don’t mind because it feels very comfortable. The straps are padded and I love the metal looking strap adjustment because it gives u more of a vintage vibe rather than a plastic one. Read more
