RothcoHeavyweight Canvas Musette Bag Crossbody Shoulder Bag

This pack has thick rugged cavas as advertised. The price was outstanding. This is my second pack from rothco, differnt design. My first one lasted years of outdoor abuse. Ended up gifting it five years later and is still in service today. The musette design i wanted because the simplistic design. Has a large main compartment that can hold two gallon jugs of milk. The side pocket can fit a typical 16 oz water bottle or soda.It makes a great messenger bag aswell, I found that if you fully extend one backpack strap while fully shortening the other it offsets the buckles in a way that avoid digging your shoulder. For me the biggest deal was simplicity, i got tired of backpacks having padded laptop sleeves that sag and hang up on the items your trying to stuff in. It does have an internal sleeve but its not lowcut, padded, sagging and in the way. Seems small when you see the dimensions listed for this smaller sized bag although it holds alot more then you'd think. Super affordable & high quality rarely go together, but in this case it does! Worth it!

This bag is nice, sturdy and i love the color (olive green). My problem is that it’s a back pack and i was looking for a cross body shoulder bag as advertised in the name. I could have unhooked the ends but then would be left with the metal clips digging in my shoulder.That being said, i kept the bag, cut the straps and sewed them so i could wear it across my body and on the shoulder. With this modification it’s exactly what i was expecting to get when i ordered it.

- I bought the brown backpack-Fits laptop and 3 ring binder plus room for more!-has one side pocket-has a large pocket inside and outside of the backpack-side pocket fit my computer mouse, pens, highlighter, and phone charger-lots of space-practical, cute, great for travel!-heavy dutyThe only thing I'd suggest are better and stringer clips for the backpack straps (not the ones that close the backpack, but shoulder straps)

The bag itself is great! The straps however are fully extended and still short. Sits super high on the back because of this. So now I’m altering this straps so i can use it.

The straps are a bit short compared to a modern backpack design but as expected for this type of bag. It keeps the weight up higher on the back and is easily worn for long periods of time. I use this bag as a small day pack. I would purchase again if required.

Olive drab doesn’t look like the picture. It’s brown.

I wanted a small, durable canvas bag for rock hounding. This is tough and just the right size.

The musette bag that arrived [...] was constructed of flimsy nylon with one tiny strap to hold it together. It looks NOTHING AT ALL like the picture!!! Bait and switch! There is no cotton canvas at all. It's a very thin nylon, so thin you can see right through it. It looks like a cheap little thing one might pick up at a dollar store. It's useless!
