I was looking for a large stylish bag to fit all my Lego sets in, together with my diary and files, that would fit in my locker, so the size is perfect. The handles on the of bag are well placed and made well. The bag has an the extension zip, which I use but I am sure you can make smaller if you don’t need the extension, I have also made use of the bag while I was away on holiday, I was able to use it for my overnight clothes as I can just put everything into this bag which is really big.I am able to also take additional clothes and decide what to wear while away as the bag has room for so much stuff, you won't need to pack what you you need but also what you want!!. I'll was also able to shop while I was away!! The double zip is obviously important for travelling and the soft appearance and the ability to squeeze the bag into small places like on an aeroplane baggage helps making the trip easier!!Would definitely recommend this product.
