Great for everything except small loads
This is a great bag for carrying everything you may need for the day. I use it to stuff in my workout clothes along with books and a laptop computer. Everything fits in comfortably. I even stuff in some groceries if I have to stop by the store on the way home. It has proven to be extremely durable as well. Another of the features I like about it is that it is "flexible" so that it can be stuffed into smaller places. It's simply not rigid like so many bags are. If you're looking for a decent sized bag, this is it.

I went round and round on what bag to get and this size is perfect for school not too big- not too small.

excellent messenger/laptop bag!
I purchased the Half Mass bag in Fusion Sunset (color) and recently traveled with it as my carry-on, filled with my laptop and other stuff. This bag is fantastic...love the way it looks, the generous cushioning on the strap, the adjustability of the straps, and the optional waist/hip strap that can be used when the bag is extra heavy (in the airport between flights, it helps!). So far, I've found this bag to be quite durable, good-looking, and well worth the money. Way to go once again, Patagonia!
