Is it a backpack or is it a bag? We don't know, and we don't care. Instead of the traditional backpack style, this bag is worn cross body. You can't fit in quite as much as you can with a standard backpack, but frankly, this is much more comfortable to wear. There's also a super convenient front pocket where you can keep your phone or wallet easily accessible.
