The reviewer reported that smaller items become difficult to find at the bottom, recommending pouches or organizers to reduce the chaos. The hidden rear compartment provides a well-concealed place for passports and important documents while exploring unfamiliar places. Four tight, springy elastic pockets hold smaller items such as phone cables, dongles, and headphones securely inside the main compartment.
The large liner pocket accommodates an 11-inch tablet, while the reviewer also found room for a 9.7-inch iPad. The softly padded top handle makes airport security easier because the reviewer could quickly place and retrieve the sling from a bin.
