Great-looking bag, but not commuter-friendly
"I’m picky about design and this bag nails it—clean lines, minimal, nice logo and elegant overall. From a looks perspective, it checks all my boxes.
Functionality is where it falls short for daily commuting:
- No laptop sleeve or compartment. It’s basically one big cavity, so my laptop slides around (I had to buy a separate sleeve). I also pack lunch, and I don’t want a spill next to my laptop.
- The single exterior pocket bulges if you use it, ruining the slim profile. It’s fine for my work badge, but not much else.
- No key solution: no clip, leash, or loop. My keys slipped out more than once. My old bag Timbuk2) include a simple key holder.
- Biggest concern: after <1 month I’m already seeing wrinkles that look like discoloration. If I can’t fix that, it’s a deal-breaker.
Keeping it for now because it looks fantastic, but I’d love the designer to bike to work sometimes and improve it first hand. I’ll update my rating once I see how the wrinkle issue plays out."

Good for outdoor activities
"Good Quality. I mainly used it for my hiking trips. I was outside in heavy rain for 2-3 hours and it was still dry inside.
Color is like you see on the picture.
There are two pockets inside the rolltop, I personally would like to have one or two more separation pockets inside (f. e. one for an bottle)."
