The reviewer found the center compartment too narrow for a book to lie flat, requiring diagonal placement inside. A curved zipper hatch gives the main compartment quick access, while its mesh pocket includes an O-ring for organization. The main compartment includes four O-rings, a feature the reviewer presents as useful for highly organized travelers.
The reviewer describes the bag's materials as 1050D ballistic nylon with a 200D Dyneema/nylon ripstop lining for its construction. With the optional Absolute Shoulder Strap, the reviewer found that the bag hung comfortably, resisted sliding, and avoided added discomfort over time.
