I'm pushing TWENTY years with this amazing bag. Just took it for a weekend in New Orleans. PERFECT! You cannot go wrong with Manhattan Portage. I feel guilty looking for another bag on the website.
Excellent bag; really well constructed with extra secure stitching/reinforcement where extra attention is needed. Easy to access pockets and lots of storage space. With all of this, the bag is comfortable and easy to wear. If this bag is like my last bag from the same company, it will last 20+ years.
I have owned this bag since 2009 and have used it a ton. From daily use as a bike messenger to travel and a grocery bag. It refuses to quit! I don't know how it is constructed so well, but it is flawless. Not a single stitch has torn. I would highly recommend this bag as it is a great choice compared to many other similar but much pricier bags.
I love this bag! I've had it for almost 4 years now and it looks the same as the day I bought it. You probably can't find a more durable bag for day-to-day use. It also holds a ton. They should consider renaming it the "Urban Mary Poppins" bag. Seriously, buy it.
I love this bag. I'm a bike commuter and this bag has room for my tools, lock and raingear when I need it with plenty of room to spare. Its simple, tough and gets the job done.
