adidas Alliance Sport Sackpack

I love this bag. I do a lot of cycling and it's the perfect light weight, durable bag to take out on long rides. The straps are thick and comfortable and don't cut into my shoulders like thinner strapped bags I've owned in the past. I've also taken the bag kayaking and canoeing and it kept my stuff dry despite getting splashed quite a bit. One thing I should mention though is that it's a little big on me (I'm 5'2'') so it sits really low on my back and the shoulder straps feel a bit baggy on my tiny shoulders, so just be aware of that if you're small like me! Other than that, this is a great bag.

I am in love with this bag. Its the perfect size; not too big and not too small. The colors are great (the pink is super bright). The pockets are great for water bottles and there is plenty of room in the big pocket. The small narrow pocket in the front fits a phone, wallet, and other small things cozily.The one complaint I have is that the strap is a little difficult to pull closed. The top hole does not shut all the way. It only leaves about a two-three inch gap, but it can be tedious to try and close it completely.Over all I would say this backpack is good for small trips, sleepovers, athletic events (such as games and tournaments), and those days of school when you don't need a big backpack, yet you have to rummage your house for that free one that's falling apart.

My two teenage sons send me the links to items on Amazon that they are interested in. Translation: "Mom can you get this for me using your Prime Membership. I really NEED it." Both sons are now using these as backpacks--it reduces the strain and poor posture that a fully load padded back pack eventually. One is off to college, so he will be carrying his Kindle for books. Hopefully that will spread down toward the lower grades, high school/middle school, but there comes responsibility that you know where you Kindle is, and of course your phone that you do not use during school. Thumbs up from one junior in HS and a college freshman.

I spent 2 weeks in Europe biking, hiking, kayaking, mountain climbing; traveling by boat, bus, train, foot.This backpack still looks brand new! Super sturdy, the cords do not dig in and are easily adjustable. Did not slide around on my back despite all of the activity. A real plus!It held everything I needed, including iPad and hoodie, small camera, sandals, souvenirs, etc.This pack just sheds dirt.It was also easy to keep an eye on because of the color ( a real plus due to the prevalence of pick-pocket activity in some of the areas I was visiting).Very comfortable and the best thing I bought for my vacation.

I've had this for a few months and there have been no problems. I use it for my soccer stuff which includes cleats, shin guards, socks, and workout clothes. It's very roomy and has nice side pockets to put your water in. The only minor detail that doesn't really matter is that it's a neon orange color and not red. But other than that, i was very happy with my purchase.

My daughter has this bag in a different color and she loves it! It's her weekend bag that she takes with her everywhere. The water bottle holder makes it extra convenient too. So we purchased another one for her best friend whose birthday is coming up soon. We received it quickly and were pleasantly surprised with the vibrant colors! It looks better than pictured! We think she'll love it!

This is the perfect gym bag.The mesh pockets on the sides are great and widen past the elastic opening. The zippered pocket is felt lined and holds my wallet, keys, headphones, etc. with room to spare. The tightening straps work well, are anchored securely, and have a perfect balance of strength and comfort for securing the main compartment and saving your shoulders from discomfort while being worn.

This bag doesn't make sense to me. My fault for not looking at the dimensions more closely, but those tiny drawstring straps led me to believe this is a much smaller bag, good for maybe an extra water bottle and few small essentials on a hike or bike ride. This thing is very bulky and closer to normal backpack size. If the capacity was better utilized, I'd think wider padded straps would be necessary. The tiny drawstrings on this one would get uncomfortable really fast. Will be returning this for something smaller.
