This backpack is similar to a rucksack, it's beautiful on the outside and on the inside. And has a small back pocket for your smaller items and electronics so that you no longer have to dig them out.
We like to take our canvas pack to the city and to hiking trails that are drier. It's a great urban pack and is extremely durable in the heat. It won't last long in the rain but this pack isn't mean't to be soaked or carried in the rain.
