Interesting and Inovative
This is an interesting hybrid between a duffel bag and a backpack. It has plenty of space for packing. Seems very well made. The water bottle pockets are pretty small and wouldn't fit a standard diameter water bottle like a nalgene which is my biggest gripe. Very comfortable. Really excited to use this pack.

Great commuter bag with space for weekend trips
I bought this pack for commuting to school. The main pocket gives me room for a laptop and tablet, with space for a charger in the small zipper pocket. The duffle style pocket gives me room for my over-ear headphones, a water bottle, and a set of gym clothes. The organization of the pack makes it easy to stay on campus all day, and gives me plenty of versatility. I've also used this bag for a couple of weekend trips. It is a little too small to pack two changes of clothes in colder weather, but I've just brought a small tote to carry anything this pack doesn't fit. The straps are super comfortable and much better than my previous backpack. My only criticisms are the high price point, and the very skinny mesh pockets on the outside that only fit a small number of water bottles. Overall I would absolutely recommend this bag and I believe it will hold up for many years to come.

Great Quality Pack
Overall, this is a high-quality pack. It will be perfect as a carry-on as I can keep my technology, clothes, and snacks organized and packed efficiently. I do wish the main compartment were a little bit larger as one pair of shoes takes up a lot of space. I also wish there were another way to access the main compartment, example a zipper across the top. I don’t always want to open the pack in a duffel bag manner. The materials used are very high-quality, including the zippers and on the whole I really like the bag.

Almost perfect
Truly a great product. There are only two gripes I have. The smaller one is the lack of a hip belt strap. Not a huge deal since overall it carries weight very well, but a hip belt strap would've made it that much better. My bigger complaint is the lack of a water bottle pocket big enough to carry a wide nalgene. None of my water bottles are thin enough for the water bottle pockets and I end up having to store them in my pack.

Great Backpack with Plenty of Space
Was naturally very curious when Nemo released a a line of backpacks. I have to say the padding is extremely comfortable in this, and the clamshell opening is great. I wish the top accessory pocket was a tad bit bigger, and I feel like they could have made the main compartment not taper so much at the end, to create a little more volume within the pack. The shoe compartment is a good addition. One other piece is when the pack is full, it does make it difficult to slip a water bottle in.

Lots of space, comfortable and great quality
I have been using this bag fairly consistently over the past month, including an extended overseas trip to Asia. This bag holds tons of stuff, including everything I needed for a 20 hour flight (bag fit perfectly under the seat and in the overhead), lots of organizational pockets and was easy to access everything. While in Asia, this bag was caught in some fairly heavy rainstorms and kept the contents dry. The ergonomics of the bag are wonderful. Despite my bag weighing a lot, it sat comfortably on my shoulders and I didn't feel the same shoulder fatigue I do with other bags of this size and weight. Despite it being a larger bag, it maintains a slim, professional profile and fits in well for daily carry work purposes.

All about the organization
I was drawn to this pack, because it is recyclable and I have tended to like what NEMO has produced over the years. I have only used it for about a week and on one flight, so my experience isn't exhaustive. I was surprised by how large the vertical zipper pocket is. I found it somewhat challenging to keep items organized in that pocket and discovered items can disappear in there. I have yet to find a use for the zipper pockets contained therein, though I suspect I will. I like pockets. I love the very deep stretch mesh pockets for my water bottle or a wind breaker or a snack. I have yet to try a fatter water bottle, so the pockets may not work for everyone. These sorts of pockets on a panel loading pack don't always work well. I find that these do. I do not yet now how well the pack will handle rain/snow, but I am tempted to stash a small pack cover in the zippered bottom compartment. This compartment intrigues, me but like a few of the other nooks and crannies I have yet to figure out how best to use it. The two shortcomings for me are the price and the lack of a single, large compartment. I find the price a bit steep, but you are getting a pack with a lot of features and I am willing to pay more for something I know can/will be recycled. The vertical zippered pocket is large, but there will certainly be 30L packs that can carry more stuff. The price you pay for all the organizational features is a diminished carrying capacity and a limit to the size of any one item you can carry. Overall, I like it and suspect it will become my EDC backpack.

Great everyday bag!
I bought this several months ago, and am very pleased with it. I use it as my work/flight bag. I carry my laptop, iPad, headset and everything else I need for the office and to power everything. Keep a change of cloths and shoes in it as well. Tons of room for everything I need and well organized. The security pocket perfectly fits a large cellphone or g19 as well which I was happy about. Wouldn’t hesitate to buy this bag again.

High quality construction
The bag is noticeably high quality form the stitching to the zippers and fabric. The organizational structure takes a bit to get used to with the main vertical zip. It lends itself to be used almost like a duffel. I wish there was perhaps one more tech compartment, but this is a small gripe. Overall, very satisfied.

Clean look with lots of compartments
I use this bag for work and am loving it more each day. First the bags sits upright when you put it down. It's got a ton of internal compartments so I can categorize the items I take to work and get to them easily. The bag carries a ton of stuff but wears well and doesn't feel heavy on my back. Very well thought out and would recommend it to anyone.
