Concluded with Specs
Overall with my experience in bags and carryable items, including plenty of low and high-quality bags. I can easily vouch for this bag as I plan on using it to its fullest extent, and potentially update this thread on its overall life quality with the passing of time! But so far of heavy daily usage, I can predict I have a companion for (hopefully) life?
The bag rounds itself up to $160 on major retailers and online portals, of course as more designs expand the usefulness increases such as the Think Tank Retrospective 10 and its deeper chamber for larger items. Now it’s up to the consumer to consider just how much weight is feasible for their particular daily routes. With a total of 8 pockets and the main chamber, for me the Think Tank Retrospective 6 is perfect for my daily grind!

Fun side-note: If you place your arm through the adjustable handle while making sure the side flaps are secure, you can sneak your other arm through the should strap to create a backpack like carry, which I’m pretty sure wasn’t an intentional feature, but was awesome to discover traversing large college-scapes; very handy!
