Got the backpack today, that was quick! Overall, I really like it. Quality seems good (seams, zippers, etc) and it fits my 15" MacBook Pro very nicely along with my iPad, pair of shoes, and my workout clothes which is generally what I haul back and forth to work. The helmet face shield holder is nice but I'll rarely if ever use it. Unfortunately, it's not removable. I may end up just cutting it out. The only downside (kinda) for me is that the waist strap is way too short to go around my fat ass. I'm a 42" waist and it's not even close to fitting. However, it's not something I would use anyway (the chest strap is enough for me) and it is removable so it won't be in my way. Thanks!
