adidas Metro Sackpack

I have several different sackpacks from different companies and this one is probably the best of the lot. It's a little bit bigger than the others and can hold a decent amount of stuff. It has a flap which covers the top. The flap has a velcro strip to hold it in place, but the velcro is pretty flimsy and can easily come off. Still it's better than nothing. The flap also has a zippered pocket built into it. You can toss a cell phone or Ipod into it and not have to worry about digging to the bottom of the bag or opening the bag up to reach it. That's very convenient. It's fairly stylish without being either too plain or too gaudy and comes in several different color combinations to suit different tastes. The overall construction is decent. No better or worse than any of my other sackpacks. I use it primarily when I travel by bike, but it's also convenient when I just need to bring a bag of stuff with me. Open it up, toss everything in, cinch it up and off I go...Read more

I got this bag to use for going to the gym or when I need to carry just a few things. It's held up well over several years. Not meant for carrying heavy things because the rope straps would dig into your shoulders, but I really like how the top flap has a grommet for headphones to go through. No interior pockets or lining, but the construction and material are sturdy.

perfect for storing my 1.5L water bottle, a sweatshirt and a book. the pouch up top is a bit different compared to what i was used to with a zippered pocket actually inside the main compartment, but i'm getting used to it. nice material too. glad to have made the purchase
