Want another one!

I used this bag daily for 2 years straight in North Eastern Canada as an LDS missionary. It went through hot, humid summers, and miserable, cold, wet, humid winters. I wore a suit or shirt and tie daily and I almost never sweat which was very nice considering I was meeting new people daily and going into their homes. I was amazed at how much stuff I was able to fit into it. After I finished my two years it still had a lot of use out of it, so I sold it to another missionary and last I heard it was still there holding up strong. I now regret selling it because since coming home I have gotten into hiking and could really use it. I'm planning on buying another one, but it's just too much for a college student.
