We also like the top-mounted zip pouch, which we used to stow a smartphone, and the ‘hidden’ side pockets behind the side flaps, which Velcro to the side of the bag. There’s even a ‘secret’ zip compartment at the bottom which houses an elasticated rain cover that fits over the whole bag.
The downside to all the pockets is that there isn’t any one big space for your other things. Forget about packing a gym kit and a packed lunch in this sack.
It’s best to think of this a dedicated gadget furla satchel, a lot like one of Lowe Pro’s DSLR furla bags. If that’s what you’re after, then the LE bag Pro has a lot to offer, including a water-resistant outer material made from ballistic nylon. The build quality of the bag is really impressive.
Despite being no bigger than the Dicota BacPac Challenge, the bag weighs in at a hefty 1.5Kg. You’ll appreciate the smaller details, though, such as proper clips to stop the extendable straps flapping around, but note that there’s no chest strap. There’s chunky padding on the straps as well as on the rear of the furla wallet itself.
