It's main claim to fame is, as the name suggests, its very light weight (600g, less than half most similar bags) and the aforementioned mix of high capacity to weight ratio and large central opening with useful organisation that makes the bag a great choice in many different scenarios. It has an understated, but slightly playful and casual aesthetic, solid robust lightweight materials and a unique bi-directional asymmetrical top opening that makes for easy loading and access to the main compartment.

Its main weakness is the lack of any purpose-built storage for laptops or other delicate devices, while a couple of minor annoyances include the lack of any flex in the materials (this bag cannot really be overstuffed) which leads to a small bit of tighteness in the front compartment with certain loads, and the lack of any type of significant padding to the bag (if carrying delicate items)

Overall, this duffel is a great choice for short weekend trips, two bag travel and gym use particularly for people who don't like a lot of excess bells and whistles in their bags, but still want them to be useful.
