I don't believe in absolute so I can't give it a perfect 10 but I would... if I could.

The size, the multiple pockets, it's very, very convenient.

(It holds a lot more than you think.)

You know what? What the heck: it's perfect!

So this was the second totepack I bought after looking ALL over websites online and visiting two stores in person. I was seeking a 20L or smaller tote backpack to use for long haul flights globally as my personal item. I did not want to be able to pack it to the brim, my must have's were 1: able to carry on my shoulder and 2: a zippered top 3:20L or smaller.

So I went first with the well known Osprey and after much research went with the older version of their current tote pack (current one is the daylight, only redeeming quality on this one is the luggage strap), I went with the Arcane tote pack and purchased from a 3rd party website. The bag itself was top notch a soft pliable fabric and all the usual features of a opsrey bag BUT the tote straps were WAY to short to carry on my shoulder and it was 22L and it had no luggage strap...so that was NOPE for me and back it went.

Enter in TenTree!! Unassuming, quiet, stealthy but with a dependable quality everyone knows....you say TenTree and they go "oh yay that company, they are good! I think I have XYZ from years ago".

Well this bag is AMAZING!!! IT comes in at 18L, has a luggage strap, tote straps that a not only long enough to shoulder carry but wrap around the ENTIRE side and bottom of the bag so you know they are really withstand some weight, I love that you can remove the backpack straps and that there are 3 zippered pouches AND 2 water bottle meshes on the outside. Really TenTree has HIT it out of the park. To me it has…
