I recommend
It is very practical
Practical and useful
I've only used it in the city/metropolis, at the office, but also daily when I walk and/or cycle a lot.
It has many compartments to put devices, bike lock, water, clothes and many other odds and ends. The back padding and straps are comfortable and a big plus.
I haven't used it for hiking yet, but will soon.
Overall, I am very happy with the product.Practical, durable and useful
I use this rucksack for metropolis city life, especially when walking or cycling, and in the office. It has several useful compartments for devices, bike lock, water, small change, etc.
It is 100% synthetics/plastics, which is why I recommend you burn the remaining tin ends with a lighter. I haven't taken it hiking yet, but I will soon. The good thing is that it also comes with a whistle which is useful for bears and/or other emergency situations.
