This bag is great! I bought this as a Christmas present for my boyfriend two years ago and it still looks brand new, despite two years worth of rough house daily use. We're talking laptop, cord, water bottle, heavy files, and textbooks every day and it's still going strong. Other than a defective shoulder clasp in the first week (Aston leather was great about replacing the entire strap free of charge. Called on Monday afternoon had the replacement strap by Tuesday morning) this bag has been great. Fits a lot of stuff and takes a beating and still comes out looking fresh. Defintely a great deal.
