I have added this piece to my repertoire. I ordered in tobaccp brown. Seems like a good size. Typical Saddleback quality and construction. I plan to use this as a carry on with my front pocket backpack (I should be able to carry quite a bit. I may use as a smaller camera bag. Options are endless. I love this piece. Not sure how this would carry as a backpack as suggested in previous review as the top has potential spaces to allow gear to slip out. No regrets for this purchase.
After a heart-wrenching week of making a decision, I settled on this bag for my new (and likely last) luggage purchase. It was between the suitcase, the waterbag and the utility duffel. I decided on this one for a handful of reasons, primarily the side pockets and the fact that it'd easily strap to the tall sissy bar on my Harley; for them long rides out of LA. (Full disclosure - I'll still probably wind up getting one of the suitcases anyway; they're just too pretty) Its first journey was to Hawaii; complimented by my Saddleback thin briefcase. Within 10 minutes of being inside LAX, I was getting compliments on them. One fella at the security checkin stopped me - I thought, oh great ... here we go - only to be asked "Man, that luggage is amazing. What is it? All I ever see here is Louis Vuitton and such." "Well, it's Saddleback - the best damn leather ever." The size is absolutely perfect for me. I generally travel light, but was able to easily fit a week's worth of shorts and shirts and the like, my golf shoes, bathroom stuff and other items. The wraparound design of the straps is perfect as I was able to fit more stuff bought on the trip (including a couple pounds of delicious Kona Coffee beans) and just wrench it all together; fitting perfectly in the overhead bin on the plane. If you want a simple design that just WORKS; can't go wrong with this bag.
