"This is my second Cotopaxi shoulder bag. I love the material, it is lightweight and durable at the same time. The bag design is great, keeping water bottle outside is save and handy. Wide strap feels nice for shoulders."
"Not really capable of carrying a lot. Its odd shape makes it fine if you stuff it with paper. The side “water bottle” holders are pretty useless. I don’t know too many people who carry that small of a water bottle unless you are using a plastic, pre-bought water bottle. The shoulder strap is horrible. I really wanted to like this bag. Disappointed. 😔"
"Perfect size for my “personal bag” piece for flying. Lots of pockets to keep documents and money safe, my kindle, even a table or small laptop, a jacket, all my essentials and everything is easily accessible. Plus, a water bottle holder integrated. I can’t wait to use it during my next flight!"
"While I love tote bags, I was looking for an upgrade, and I decided to go for a Viaje Shoulder Bag to use as my work bag. Not only is it roomy, but the amount of pockets and compartments helps me stay organized and find things easily. I'm able to pack essentials, a water bottle, my small bento, and even a light sweater. Plus, I love the vibrant color!"
"I was trying to decide between the 9L and 12L for an everyday carry for personal items with room for a small journal, my Supernote and water bottle. I’m petite so this bag ultimately was too big for everyday and I went with the 9L though I wish the water bottle pockets were a bit deeper on the 9L. This one felt more like a messenger bag size, which makes since with the padded laptop back."
"Once I figured out that 12 liters is ideal for my everyday, this was the clear winner amongst all other 12L crossbodies on the market right now. The combination of materials make it a great crossover style. Would love to see the design and pocketing choices carried over into a Viaje totepack or backpack."
"I love this bag, just wish it would come in more colors. Im not really a plain color person but I love the shape, design and features of the bag, so i got it as i couldnt find anything similar online. I needed a work tote that can keep all my stuff in 1 place and that could zip, while maintaining my personal style, I love a ripstop bag. I got the white color which is actually grey in person which im really not a fan of the color but everything else works so im good with it. wish theyd release in the more typical cotopaxi color style."
"I have taken this purse on. Mountain side in Iceland, walking around Rome, and to Spain it has held up very well. I love the pockets so much!! I carry odds and ends in it that I need on trips in it. The bottom draw string perfect"
"Great pockets, etc. The first one I bought was too large for me, but my granddaughter loves it! I purchased a smaller one for me and am very happy. It will come in handy for my upcoming cruise."
"It’s got a gajillion pockets and fits nice on my back as I rip through the streets of Saigon. I’d add a cover for the plastic bit that wrenches the strap but other than that it’s totally swag as."
