Kind of disappointed
My current backpack of choice is a High Sierra single strap backpack. I got this one since I thought it would be the same as my other backpack, but have two straps. There are a couple things that sadly are not the same. The main compartment doesn't have a padded divider. Since I use my backpack mostly to carry around my laptop, a padded divider would have been a HUGE plus. The second thing is that the compartment meant for your iPod (or other mp3 player of your choice) is the same plasticy fabric that lines rest of the backpack. In my single strap High Sierra, it had soft fabric for that compartment which definitely prevented scratching. The yolk at the top between the two straps is uncomfortable. I can feel it pressing against my back. Maybe I just haven't adjusted it correctly yet. Those things aside, it still has the same high quality construction and has plenty of room. Maybe once I break it in a bit more I'll be happier with it.

Not what I thought it would be
Was excited to get this backpack in red at such a great price. Turned out not be to what I expected. I see that there are pics now that clearly show the back/straps. There weren't any when I bought it. The back felt and looked like the bottom of a tent and I knew the moment I saw it that it would heat up. (A big deal in Arizona where it's 104 in the shade.) Was expecting some breathability, like other High Sierra's I've seen. Guess you get what you pay for. And just to make it an all around pleasant shopping experience, Amazon charged me for the return. Apparently it's a new policy that if you don't like the item, you pay.
