This rucksack looks rugged, however, the clasps on the flap and pockets do not close tightly, and they will 'slip' open when the sack is being carried or moved around. We have returned two of these rucksacks due to this problem.
I was jealous that my daughter recently bought a beautiful Filson bag. This LL Bean Rucksack was purchased to fill her full of envy and jealousy. The Bean Bag is very attractive and functional. Not cheap but what now-a-days is cheap and worthwhile? This great bag should last a long time and get better and better looking with age. I'm happy.
Recently bought this item to use on my 4-day trip to The Bahamas. It was my first cruise and I wanted something sturdy but attractive. It held everything I needed for my trip and more. The pockets on the outside were very useful,et;..cell phone, glasses, passport, etc...I would give the Maine rucksack 5 stars. Thank You for making my trip a little easier.
I bought this for my husband and he loves it. It's just big enough for a water, a jacket and a computer. It looks rugged and is very durable. Exceptional craftmanship. Well worth the price.
