I actually had this same bag prior to this one but made from a different material, that one fell apart on me and I was very disappointed with it, which almost made me not get this bag. I came searching for something within a certain price point but also made with good, durable materials. I didn't realize this was the same bag as I had but just different materials until I was about to add it to cart. After a bit more thought I went ahead and gave it a try and so far no regrets.
The reason I was so disappointed with my previous bag was because I don't put a lot of stress on the bad, yet it was tearing at multiple seems. I only use this bag two days a week, I use it to hold a few things I take into the office at work on the weekends and once I'm in the office and remove those things it just sits there, the rest of the week it sits in my vehicle. So there's no reason with that light use the bag I had should have been ripping apart at the seems in less than a year.
This bag has been great though, good material, no threads coming out of the seems or anything like that so far. Plenty of compartments for my various items
