The reviewer reports that the attached key clip detached completely when lifted for attaching keys, despite no demanding use. The reviewer reports that the water-repellent coated canvas and Nappa leather kept water at bay during roughly half an hour of heavy rain. The C12 provides a front quick-access pocket, padded suspended laptop compartment, and three additional interior pockets for everyday organization.
The reviewer notes that the interior pockets fit varied everyday items and sit high near the opening for easier access and reduced crushing. The reviewer says adjustable, removable straps allow backpack or shoulder carrying, while top handles support tote carrying.
