Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication
Fantastic bag. Exactly what I have been looking for - and I have been looking for quite a while - and the perfect precent for a 'reduced to the max' approach.

Makes you aware of how awkwardly designed and overengineered most packs actually are - while often ignoring utility or making you look like an Urban Guerilla Hero Turtle.

This is the all-rounder I've been looking for. Incredible bag, and an absolute pleasure ordering from Mukama!

Perfect combination of simplicity & functionality
Great office or everyday carry backpack with a lot of space and perfect organization features. Amazing design, especially the navy color looks fantastic and the bag is very comfortable to carry around.

Evergoods quality and design but...
The use of this bag has been a bit of a transition journey for me. In the beginning (in the first week of test-use) I was seriously considering selling it or returning the bag. The fit of it is not as other backpacks I've used in the past (Fjällraven, TNF, etc). I've read that this difference in fit is due to Evergoods bags design so that bags are worn better when worn high. However, in my opinion this is not the case. I normally wear all of my bags high as I like to feel the load high on my back and dislike the drooping feeling of the bag when the straps are not properly adjusted. With this bag the fit is just different even when worn high. The straps are more widely spaced than in other bags, sitting outer on your shoulders than with other bags and for me (and others, so far I've read) this requires some getting used to. If I want to get the same fit and feeling as with other bags I need to tighten the straps meaningfully making movement a bit uncomfortable and making it impossible to take the back off my shoulders. I think I've finally found the sweet spot in the straps where the bag is comfortable to wear and I still can manage to take it off although not completely effortlessly.

Having said all that above, I've read of people being completely happy with the fit so this might just apply for some people. In the end I believe you need to try it and see if the fit appeals to you and is comfortable.

Lastly, I have begin to see some fraying on the fabric seams near to the zipper pulls. All around but specially around the corners the zippers are not as smooth and whenever the zipper bumps and you require to puill a bit more this will start damaging the internal seams.

In my opinion this is a design issue, as I had never experienced this with other bags, regardless of how much or how little stuff I had in them. I know you can be extra careful when closing the bag to make sure the zipper pulls do not get caught up and damage the fabric in the seams, but this honestly feels to me like the user gets the responsibility of not damaging the bag through normal use when the issue could have been solved in the design phase, and specially when this issue does not happen with any of my other cheaper and not high-end bags.

Still, this bag feels nice, has tons of space for being a 20L bag, has really nice organization features and therefore gets a 3 out of 5 from me. I really want to love this bag more and can only hope that at least the zipper issue gets fixed, so that I can keep ordering Evergoods products in the future :) .

Very nice office EDC pack
Good size and materials, good organization. The shape of the lower part is a bit peculiar. The straps could be a bit more refined but given the small size of the pack this is not an issue.

Great backpack
Everything is perfect except:
1.Main zipper too stiff
2. Wired shape on the top. Zipper makes the top look very boxy and not rounded.
