Rated 5 out of 5 stars

An exceptionally well-made and durable backpack. You can immediately feel the quality of the materials and the heavy-duty construction. I went with the Merlot color, and it is honestly gorgeous in person. ​The 25L Pro Compact size is ideal for fitting standard gym lockers without any fuss, though because of the size limitations, you naturally sacrifice a bit of external pocket space. My only real critique is that for a "Pro" series bag at this price point, heavy-duty zip toggles really should be included as standard rather than something you have to buy separately. ​Overall, a brilliant, purpose-built gym bag that I'm very happy with.
