This bag is exactly as described and pictured. Other positive reviews (including the very helpful video review) say it all: the bag is roomy, has plenty of separate storage compartments, a sturdy zippered main compartment, and a rugged-yet-refined aesthetic. The gold hardware is really lovely. One reviewer noted that a handle at the top would have been nice since it is awkward trying to &#34;grab&#34; the bag quickly--I second that nomination. However, a handle also would have made the bag appear a little too utilitarian for my tastes, and I likely would not have purchased it with said handle. Funny how these things work.<br /><br />My only complaint--more of a comment, really--is that the zipper is a little &#34;sticky&#34;; it doesn't unzip as smoothly as some (more expensive) bags I've owned. Honestly, this is probably a nit-picky non-issue for most people.<br /><br />I'd buy this bag again in a heartbeat and recommend it highly--especially if you can find it as a Lightning Deal!
