Almost But Not Quite Right

I really wanted to like this bag/backpack combo but it was just a little off. The backpack straps are way too short and aren’t adjustable so the backpack sat at a weird spot on my back, especially when using the laptop sleeve. The main compartment (which I think is also the only compartment?) is quite narrow, which would probably be fine for people who don’t carry a lot of stuff but I wanted to use this bag for travel and there was just no way to fit the things I needed. Ended up returning.

Great Bag

I used it on our road trip and loved it. This bag can be carried on your shoulder or as a backpack and has plenty of pockets- could easily work as an overnight bag.

Best All Around Tote Bag

This has to be the best tote/backpack available! Straps are perfect length for a tote bag and it is so easy to make into a backpack. Great for taking on trips and a tote to the pool

Love.

This bag is great. It fits my yoga mat, blocks and personal items. I appreciate that I can wear it over my shoulder or as a backpack. Lots of pockets. Glad I purchased.

Perfect Diaper Bag!

We needed a versatile bag that looked nice, weighted little, had easy access to a water bottle, spacious, and top loader. This has is all! I can fit everything I need for myself and my two kiddos. We got it in green and both my husband use it when we take the kids out. The only thing we don't love is that the backpack straps are not the most comfortable, and a bit on the smaller side

Ugh, The Straps!

I love the design of the bag itself, other than wishing it would stand instead of flopping over. The straps are another story. They are scratchy and uncomfortable and very hard to wear even empty as a backpack. I wish this worked!

Outdoor Educator Approved

I needed a backpack that can go from desert field trip with 8th graders laying in a wash to adult hangout post work- this is that bag. On a daily basis, it fits a liter nalgene, a rain layer, a warm layer, headlamp, snacks, book, journal with room to spare. Let me be clear- I WOULD NOT take this bag on a longer trek or with more weight due to these straps but for a couple hours, it rocks. Side pockets do not fit a regular sized nalgene but do fit my 12 oz coffee cup. Double zippers on top make it easy to open from different angles. Hecka durable- I'm always throwing my stuff on the ground. Wish it had more pockets. All around great convertible totepack
