I’ve Seen The Light

Summary: This backpack is AWESOME! I wish I bought a few of them before the price went up.

I bought this backpack specifically to use on the back of my Sun USX trike because the piping is illuminated (I really want to be seen when I’m cycling) and I also needed a backpack that could carry a lot of stuff (I don’t travel light). After checking this backpack out, it not only is in use when I cycle, I take it everywhere I go.

Pros: Illuminated piping that can “blink” or steady light, 2 large zippered compartments with ample dividers and pockets including padded protection for a lap top, 2 smaller side pockets with ample dividers and spacers to carry all your smaller electronic gear, comfortable shoulder strap even has a pocket for my cell phone, and a front pocket that houses the “electronics” for the illuminated piping with ample room for lots of spare batteries.

Cons: Ships without the 2 AAA batteries needed to illuminate the piping… come on SWISS GEAR how cheap can you get… and you really have to look to find the battery holder and switch as the instructions play down this feature.

Review on Zermatt

This daypack serves its purpose. I haven’t had a problem with the zippers and i’ve used this quite frequent with loads of books. The straps aren’t too bulky so it would fit a female and a male. This is worth the +/- 30 bucks you spend.

Not very comfortable shoulder straps

I like Wegner Swiss Gear notebook backpacks but this bag’s shoulder straps are not comfortable. I like everything else, especially cellphone attachment. I agree with previous reviewer, the zips are not as good as notebook backpacks’ but still working for me (with my extra care :). I don’t use this bag for daily use and recommend to add more $ and get either Maxxum Swiss Gear by Wenger Notebook Backpack Blue or RIVAL from SwissGear by Wenger Computer Backpack, both often were on sales.

Zermatt Daypack

This backpack is a great size but the zippers are nylon and are already separating and getting stuck, it would have been better with metal zippers
