By Mathtac from Virginia on 11/14/2008 Pros: Easy To Access Items, Good Capacity, High Quality, Plenty of pockets Cons: Back pocket gaps open Describe Yourself: Career, Comfort-Oriented, Practical Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is my new "every day" bag. Easily accessible magnet-closing section for credit card, cell phone, pen, and car key mean I rarely have to go into the main compartment! Back pocket tended to gap open, so I put in a small velcro fastener and that took care of that.
By SoulTrain from FPO AE on 11/02/2008 Pros: Easy To Access Items, Easy To Carry, Good Capacity Best Uses: Daily use, Weekend Trips Describe Yourself: Classic, Comfort-Oriented, Practical Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Nice roomy bag for running around town. Can carry a small bottle of water and some snacks. Front flap has good, functional pockets. Only problem is that the top seams seam seem to be fraying though nothing seems to be coming apart.
By Sandia Sal from CO on 08/21/2008 Pros: Easy To Access Items, Good Capacity, High Quality Best Uses: Daily carry-all Describe Yourself: Comfort-Oriented, Practical Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I love the magnetic closure on the front flap-easy to access stuff, but not too open. The one on the main compartment doesn't stay closed, but that isn't such a big deal, since there is an inside zipper pocket. I like the back flap for quick stashing of papers and receipts. It seems well-thought-out, with places for cell-phone, cards, and so forth, and a key clip. Its also a good size--big enough to stuff a book in, but small enough to find things easily.

I own the Donner Bag and have been using it for 3 years. I just wanted a new look and this purse is great.
Great looking travel bag. By SoulTrain from Italy on 08/17/2008 Pros: Easy To Access Items, Easy To Carry, Good Capacity, High Quality Best Uses: Long Vacations, Weekend Trips Describe Yourself: Classic, Comfort-Oriented, Practical Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: So far so good on use during travel. Looks great and durable so far. Holds a bottle of water and snacks. The only potential problem is the closure. The main compartment closes by a magnet which could be tempting for pickpockets. Will attach velcro for more secure closure.
By Alice in travelland from Lansing, MI on 07/27/2008 Pros: Easy To Access Items, Easy To Carry, Good Capacity, High Quality Describe Yourself: Comfort-Oriented, Practical Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought this bag to travel with because I needed a bag that both holds a lot of stuff and doesn't look huge when relatively empty. I bought the grape/slate which isn't shown here but is a very nice muted mauve color-- not bright like the colors shown.
It definitely looks fine without a lot of stuff, but it comfortably holds all the regular items in the front pocket plus a small sweatshirt and a paperback in the main compartment with room for more. Perfect for keeping all of what you need at the ready when traveling.
My only complaint is that the front pocket is held closed only by a flap with two magnets. In a crowded place it would be easy for someone to slip their hand in and grab your wallet/mp3 player. There is a zippered pocket in the main compartment for storing anything you really can't afford to lose like a passport or wallet.

By Done with Diapers from Traverse City, MI on 07/10/2008 Pros: Easy To Access Items, Easy To Carry, Good Capacity, High Quality Best Uses: Every day all day Describe Yourself: Comfort-Oriented, Practical Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I recently switched from a diaper bag to this bag and it is wonderful! I love that it's made to wear like a messenger bag so it fits my body. It has lots of pockets to fill and it doesn't look bulky when it's full. Well crafted and comfortable to wear.

By BeachGirl from Ocean Shores, WA on 06/19/2008 Pros: Easy To Carry, Good Capacity, High Quality Cons: Velcro instead of magnets Best Uses: Everyday use, Family Trips, Long Vacations, Weekend Trips Describe Yourself: Comfort-Oriented, Practical, Traveler Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The size of the bag is just right. The only problem is the magnets on the flap, they are not very strong & I think Velcro would have been better, much more secure.
