AmeriBagClassic Distressed Nylon Healthy Back Bag Tote X-Small,Black,one Size

Good shape and size (I bought the XS one) for everyday use. My friend liked it so much I gave it to her, and another friend has bought one!They do not slip off your shoulder (a blessing), have numerous pockets for storing goods, even a place for your little umbrella.There's a lock to attach your keys to and also a zipper pocket. All in all a very good everyday dag I would highly recommend.

I needed a smaller purse with a strap that wouldn't cause shoulder pain, so my previous positive Ameribag experiences brought me back. These bags are extremely durable, easy to carry and clean, and well worth the price! My first Ameribag served me well for years of daily use and abuse, since it was dropped, tossed into the car, dumped in grocery carts, and stuffed under airplane seats and into overhead bins. My second bag was the next size down (a Medium), as I was no longer traveling as often, but is still in use when I do need a bigger bag. While the sizes in the description are somewhat confusing, I highly recommend checking the specific measurements to be sure, as they are accurate. My new Extra-Small Ameribag is exactly what I need for everyday use, but it's far from "extra-small", with many pockets on the outside and inside that still leave enough room for my essentials to be secure. I highly recommend Ameribags for anyone who wants to get great value for the money and have a bag that lasts for years and years.

I, too, prefer the non padded version BUT I do like this size. Everything I had in the next size up version, fits in this size, but without any wiggle room. Not sure I could add a sweater, water bottle, and my own Ziploc of popcorn for the movies (shhhhh) BUT this size looks a bit more 'stylish'. The padded pocket is big enough for my Kindle, and would probably hold an iPad mini. My 2nd gen iPad will NOT fit in the padded pocket BUT if I just stuff it into the main part of the purse, it WILL fit. You could also add a small wallet or things that were also not too bulky (ie flat-ish). The zipper just closes . . but it's nice to know I COULD get it in there if I had to. Ameribag should consider making the padded pocket with a velcro closure so it could be removed. I suppose I could possibly rip it out and use duct tape but . . . it doesn't bother me that much.UPDATE! The padded areas finally got to me . . so I took out the padding at both places. It's not attached at all. Make slits (around 2 inches long), stick your fingers in an curl the padding (styrofoam) around your fingers and pull it out. Patch the slits with Bondex Outdoor Restore. I wanted to fold it into my carry on bag and now I can! Also gives me a bit more room . . .My iPhone 4s fits inside the larger of the two 'magnetic' pockets . . but with only a small protective case. If you have a mega Otterbox, it might be a stretch. Because there are two pockets instead of the one, these pockets tend to only hold flatter objects. The smaller pocket will hold two packs of TicTacs.It's new and I suspect the fabric will loosen up a bit with use.These bags are great for travel . . I feel like I have a good handle on it. I was with a girl in Fiji who had her purse snatched right after making an ATM withdrawal. WAY too easy of a target, purses. On the strap, there IS a different kind of fabric towards the top that seems to be less slippery than the Nylon the bag is made out of. Someone previously mentioned that the non slip material was missing - it's there, just a different fabric than before.A 16 oz plastic bottle of water will fit in the outside 'spine' pocket, but because this bag is smaller, only half the bottle is in the pocket. Secure enough for a walk around New York but might fall out if you were running for a train.I backpacked around the globe well into my 40's and had a day pack that had my purse in it. Finally grew up and graduated to an Ameribag. The day pack for adults!

Bought this as friend recommended it. It is a great shape, comfortable to carry and I am very pleased with it. I also have the smaller size...would recommend.

The bigger one I use when I travel, in that it provides more storage space. The smaller for everyday use.
