The great design of this backpack is difficult to capture with pictures, so order one, see it in person, and you will not be disappointed. I commute by bicycle, and this is the greatest backpack I have ever owned. It would be very difficult for me to go back to a traditional style backpack. This pack is not only comfortable, but it will not move around or slip like a traditional backpack can do while bicycling. It also allows for a greater range of motion in the shoulders/upper arms, which makes for not only a more comfortable bicycle ride, but a safer one too. My hands can move much more freely on the handlebars, which makes it much easier to grab the brake levers in panic stop situations. Thank You!
A cool-looking bag that outshines every ordinary backpack.
I bought the new version of the J Bag because I've had an original for over 20 years and it still gets major use. I love the bigger size and reflective trim.
I've had my jbag for at least 15 years--bought it in the MP storefront . The perfect cycle bag--pop your helmet in when you arrive at your destination, along with room for a water bottle and misc gear. Comfortable to wear while you ride. Also a terrific bag to put in your luggage when you travel and use as a daybag when you get there. Thought I'd find something else from MP to use, but I honestly don't think this can be improved upon (an inside pocket would be nice) so I'm just going to buy one in a different color.
You may not be turning as many heads as you did in the late 90s, but you will always grab my attention. We've been through lots together in the past two decades, and grown together - but you still are holding strong. Here's to another 20 years electric blue J-bag!
