    Its the perfect size

    great for a day bag or for work. 20L + bags can be just too easy to fill with junk and smaller bags (10L) can be tough to fit more than a few things. A happy medium in a size were few even give an option in. Pockets are great, lightweight material. The bag feels sturdy tho it does not give much shap to itself. Does not stand on its own
