“Love it overall, but even the smaller size backpack is pretty big and bulky for a smaller framed female like myself. Unfortunately it’s too big for everyday use like I’d hoped, but I’ll keep it for trips.”
“This is a really awesome backpack! Really great build quality and has plenty of pockets for anything you might need. Just make sure you get the right size for you! I'd gladly buy another one and will definitely recommend to my friends!”
“I bought the bag for my wife who just loves it. It fits her and her style way better than a "normal" backpack and she even dresses it up for her professional job. What is better than the bag is the cause and backstory behind the bags. To empower developing countries and to provide jobs to people is just fantastic. It is about time more companies give people a hand up not a hand out! I will be buying other Day Owl bags!”
“Purchased both sizes from the Kickstarter campaign. Not sure if quality has changed but definitely not durable as a commuter bag. After a year the arm straps have come undone from the stitching in both bags. The straps also tend to move around even after adjusting the length--I prefer the metal adjustments over plastic but the design isn't ideal. The functional design/compartments is great, the fabric and leather are good quality--but the straps/stitching need improvement. Spouse moved on to Yeti and I'm leaning towards the Patagonia Tamangito.”
“This bag is extremely well designed, and you can feel good knowing that it’s environmentally friendly and helping people use their skills to pay the bills.”
