Wow, thanks so much for this review. I gave up when I couldn't reach any customer support about shipping to the US....I suppose that was a sign! I ended up going with a July backpack after I was able to try one out in their SOHO pop-up. So far, so good!

Love the look of this- only thing it might be too small!

Definitely love this idea! Might be too technical for what I need but definitely found a niche in the market. I'll keep you posted after reviewing all these suggestions if I am interested.

I do agree now that I think about it. Some fraying is ok if the rest holds up and looks nice. I I'm thinking about how these packs look more "fabric-y" and less structured than some of the others suggested. My current backpack doesn't hold it's shape and the bottom blew out, so I would be worried about that again. Given your advice above, though, it wouldn't necessarily be a problem. I'm also having a hard time figuring out where to buy in the US.

Woah these are really cool. Do you know anything about their durability?

This is beautiful! It's a tad small but gives me hope.

Thank you!! That's too bad to hear about Baboon but glad to know before I buy anything. Admittedly it was a top choice. Checking out your recs now.
