Bottom Line:
I love this bag but it turns out there are just too many pockets. I got the "Deluxe Internal Pocket" and it is overkill. There are so many pockets I loose track of what is where. And the pockets are not the best designed, too deep for small things and too shallow for pen length things. I should have just got the standard front pocket and the rear external pocket. That would be enough for anybody.
The bag is built like a tank. The 840 Ballistic cloth is worth the upgrade from the waxed canvas.
