I’m usually never compelled to write a review, good or bad, for anything, but after 6 months of daily use, I have to say this might be the best backpack I’ve ever owned. The one caveat being is that it’s only been six months.

After years and hundreds of dollars spent on finding a versatile every day backpack that looked decent, was durable and had a useful storage layout, I reluctantly, largely because of the price, I bought the cruiser as mostly a work/travel bag and so far I’m a huge fan.

I’ve had very mixed results with the quality of Lululemon products but its been on a dozen flights crammed under seats and in storage bins, caught in the rain countless times and honestly treated like shit and I can’t see a single defect yet. Aside from my trail bag I’ve had for many years, it’s the first time in a while I’ve felt a bag might last.

The storage options aren’t crazy, but for someone like me who travels or commutes with a laptop, a water bottle, toiletries/gadgets, and maybe a sweater or coat, it’s been perfect.

I know I sound like some company shill but I would have saved myself hundreds of dollars worth of buying shitty bags and sadness if I just bought this in the first place, and feel like giving credit where credit is due.
