Chrome Industries Barrage Cargo Roll Top Backpack - Waterproof 15 Inch Laptop Bag, 22L All Black Backpack for Commuting, Travel & Outdoor Adventures

Love the backpack, super cool and comfy. I quickly got used to having just one large compartment instead of 2 midsize. However, never will I understand how designers came with tiny side pockets for water bottles. There is no way to fit 1 liter reusable metal water bottle in there. Why not use mash or expandable material on a side? I tried to attache it to a carbine, but it just constantly hits me. BummerBest backpack I ever owned. Very sturdy and comfortable. Great for long commutes and day to day use as well. Materials feel premium as expected.Great build and great bag. I use it everyday and have been caught in the rain without worry. The capacity of the bag is very big and it is very good quality. The only draw back is that the inside compartments do not have much flex so you are limited as to what you can put inside even tho they are big. I absolutely love the cargo net on the outside and it has come in handy many times, carrying an extra pair of shoes of jacket or sweater. I even put an extra emergency outfit on the outside on a quick day trip I took. It hugs your shoulders well buy feels a bit loose sometimes on the bottom of the bag and can cause weird weight distribution unless you tighten the straps alot around the shoulders. Overall a great bag and definitely worth the price. So far it has met all my needs and I am very satisfiedThis is my first Chrome Industries bag. I just recently began to commute on my bicycle on a regular basis and I needed a backpack that was weatherproof, sturdy, and large capacity. This backpack fulfills all those needs.It's basically a large waterproof "dump" style backpack- perfect for my groceries! And the fact that's it's a roll top means that it can hold substantially more when left unrolled.There's a secondary compartment that runs the height of the backpack but it's much thinner than the main compartment. It's also got water bottle/u-lock pockets on each side of the pack. These aren't very big and they don't stretch. I don't think I'll be using them to hold my water bottle, but I'll probably use them for small nicknacks. The large net style external pocket on the front of the backpack works well for carrying things like shoes, layers of clothing, my bicycle helmet, etc. Also, because of its net style construction, it's easy to attach a red blinky light to the backpack.Although it has a laptop sleeve in the main compartment, it's unpadded so you may want to put the laptop into a padded case before using it with this pack. I've included a photo of the laptop sleeve- it's basically a thin flap of material that keeps the laptop separate from the rest of the main compartment.Very comfortable and made in the USA, this backpack has become my workhorse backpack.I ordered my backpack through S&W group and I was impressed with the fast ship time.The cargo netting is great. I always have something that doesn't fit in my messenger bag (like lunch box or groceries) that now is no problem to attach to the outside. The geometry of the interior is narrow but deep so can hold a lot, but I wonder it if wouldn't benefit from being widened. The materials are the sort of high quality stuff you expect from chrome. I especially like the laptop compartment inside.I love this backpack. This is my first rolltop and I don't think I'll ever go back to a traditional/clamshell backpack. The quality of materials and craftsmanship is top notch. It has just enough space for one bag travel but is also a great size for an everyday carry bag. The straps and back padding are very comfortable. The seatbelt buckle as the chest strap is a nice touch and I prefer it over other types. I like the netting on the outside of the bag. I use it to carry my wet grappling clothes so what's inside doesn't get wet and stinky. I also use it when the main compartment is full but I need to carry just a couple more items. This bags capacity can be extended past the brim as long as the items are stacked well, the strap is long enough to accommodate this. Once rolled down a bit and tightened with the strap the inside is 100% waterproof thanks to the sail type liner inside that is welded as its own compartment. There is an access pocket next to the netting that is a good size and can fit quite a few items. Overall this is a great bag and I'm so glad I made this purchase.Seems super sturdy, but wasn't expecting the stitching of one of the buckles to just pop,. Chrome suspended their HUBS, so I can't go in store to get it fixed and Amazon has an incredibly long return policy that could take a month. Too long to go without a bag. I don't recommend buying chrome as a heavy user until you can be assured to have a way of getting your bag fixed in a timely manner. Bummer of a purchase now, and not sure if I'll buy Chrome again until HUBS re-open.The comfort and sturdiness is solid. The durability of the inner liner jacket is atrocious. I carried my laptop in it with no extra jacket and the bottom of the jacket separated my laptop fell into some liquid from a jar that opened slightly and now the mic doesn’t work. That expressed external durability high. That internal jacket weak as baby diarrhea.Great product great service chrome reliable products always the bestLightweight and secure. An extra pocket inside would've been useful and also if the inner side was a lighter colour . As it is so deep and black can be hard to find things. Helps if you have extra little bags or containers to separate your belongingsfully in love with thisSehr guter Qualitätsrucksack der Marke Chrome . Verarbeitung, Nähte und schließmechanismen weisen ausgezeichnete Qualität nach. Ausreichend Füllvolumen um ihn als Daypack zu verwenden.Für Kuriere auch verwendbar da er Wasser undurchlässig ist.Le sac est made in USA et non china.Très belle finition.Le filet est vraiment pratique et adaptable avec les sangles.Il y a une petite poche an face avant. Le zippe d’accès se trouve sur le coté.Attention le sac est rigide au contraire d'un Eastpak. Cela doit s'expliquer par une vrai doublure imperméable.Attention les photos de la description ne correspondent pas exactement avec le sac reçu :l'intérieur du sac reçu est gris est non orange.Le logo est rouge et non noir.Les réglages des bretelles sont noirs et différents.Il y a deux poches latérales.Bref le sac correspond au dernier modèle vendu par chrome. A part ces quelques différences, il est vraiment bien. Avoir sur le long terme.
