GOOTIUM Canvas Backpack for Women Vintage Style Zipper Bag Men's Casual Daypack Cloth Outdoor Travel Rucksack, Olive

I couldn't be more impressed with the quality of this bag! I can already tell that this bag will last a lifetime. It's roomy (perfect width and height), has lots of pockets (including two divided ones inside), quality (metal, not plastic) zippers, sturdy (real) leather hand straps, two handy and open side pockets, a protective inside sleeve section for my lap top, zipper pulls attached for quick and easy access, padded and adjustable shoulder straps, a large and thoughtfully placed zippered compartment that rests up against your back to safeguard any valuables or important papers, plus an inside lobster claw to hang my keys on. The color, Umber, is spot on as well...the perfect shade of brown. (The pictures may show it to be a bit lighter because of the flash from the camera). I am especially grateful for the quality stitching and reinforcements in all the right places including the extra wide panel on the outside bottom of the pack that helps it "stand up" to make loading it a breeze. The canvas is thick and durable but not too thick. It's the perfect weight so that you don't feel like you're carrying around just a bag when your pack load is light. In addition, all the inside seams are piped (or covered) and sealed to prevent any kind of fabric fraying. Trust me...This exceptional feature screams quality! Also, since I'm one who is fond of a simple look and can do without the over-the-top branding logos plastered all over a product, I particularly appreciate the incognito, yet classy and well sized, brand name that is strategically placed on the back pack. Although there is another company name stamped in large letters on the bottom of the pack in a similar and blended in color, I suppose I can live with that considering its location. Unfortunately, in comparison to another Gootium back pack that I own, I'm not particularly satisfied with the shoulder straps. I'm annoyed with the fact that the padded straps don't continue all the way up the shoulder to the top of the bag to provide that extra cushion on the top of the shoulder. What I am super stoked about is that I'm able to fit my (go with me everywhere) 40 oz water bottle -- yes, 40 oz -- into one of the two open side pockets. I've never been able to do that with any other back pack that I've ever owned before! Bonus points for me right there! I almost always take a back pack with me everywhere I go, and, now, this eye catcher will definitely be my new "Take Me Anywhere" daily bag. It's definitely hard to find absolutely everything that you love in one back pack, but this one, for me, comes pretty darn close. Gootium stands behind and believes in their products, and they also have a super attentive customer service team. If you're at all on the fence about getting one, hesitate no more. It (and all of their other products) surely will not disappoint. You'll feel nothing but pure joy and happiness knowing that you own such an attractive, well-crafted bag for a more than reasonable price! Thank you, Gootium, for continuing to strive to provide us all with such outstanding and durable products!

Well constructed bag, very durable and holds a lot of things while still looking good. Highly recommend this bag

I’m using it as a diaper bag. This is a very durable, functional and comfortable canvas bag. The strap length is great, I am 5”4, my husband is 6”4 and we both use it comfortably. The storage capacity is great. The side pockets fit tall narrow water bottles. The padding in the straps is nice, could definitely be worn for a while. I love the simple style of it, and know I’ll use this bag for the next several years of my life. 10/10 recommend. I do have packing cubes on the inside as there aren’t tons of pockets for organization.

I bought my first Gootium bag a few years ago. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and design. Very nicely done, great stitching, piping and materials. My wife liked it so much she wanted one to use as a handbag. Soon my children each wanted one. They have gone to Disney World with us and have been used daily. We have never had an issue with any of them! No broken zippers, no torn straps, no ripped pockets. So many times some products seem very nice and in a short while they disappoint. Not the case here. They have not seen heavy field use but they have stood up to everyday wear and something about their bags, they seem to have compartments and pockets in all the right places! Now Gootium is the first brand I look for when wanting a bag. The price is fair, the quality is good. It’s obvious this company is interested in building a good reputation. They seem proud of their products and are sure to be responsive if you have any issues. This is the impression that I have from my few interactions with them. Their latest backpack is perfect! My other Gootium bags are smaller and I’ve wanted a larger size. This model is very spacious without being bulky. Great thoughtfulness on the placement and number of pocket. Dual water bottle holders are hardly noticeable when not in use. I love the understated utilitarian design and premium looking labels and details. If you are looking for bags with rugged simplicity from a smaller company dedicated to their products you will not be disappointed with Gootium. Just be warned, friends and family may soon want their own bag!

I've wanted this packpack for like 6 years now and finally bought it. I love it! It's big and has lots of pockets and it's just great! Good material, good for the monies. Update.. it's been 2 months and the strap is starting to rip at the seam. I do t even use this everyday and so it's a little disappointing. Maybe be keep and eye out for ripping so it doesn't spread too far.

Excellent quality bag. Very sturdy and stylish.
