The reviewer reports that the strap kinks and twists, requiring straightening each time the bag is used in backpack mode. The reviewer finds the harness system ingenious because its single strap transforms into shoulder straps without requiring clips or buckles. The reviewer prefers medium sling mode because it offers a comfortable balance between carrying comfort and available size.
Both sling configurations provide two equally sized main sections, with the laptop sleeve also serving as an internal divider. The reviewer finds small sling mode limited to everyday essentials such as a wallet and smartphone despite the bag’s bulk.
