Have been carrying the Saddleback for a week now. Love it. This is my bag. Will post a full review soon.

Thanks, man, appreciated your confidence.

Or figure out a way to keep it in *front* of you. This is one reason I prefer messenger bags over backpacks in that when I board a bus, I can just swing it to the front and avoid plastering people with it. Then again, I've also had extensive collarbone surgery and backpack straps aggravate the hell out of it, so I either go one strap or go without. :p
Yep. With you all the way. ~ H

Looks like you got the same color as mine. Hope you enjoy it, and it'll help you build some strength too I'd imagine. Looking at that picture though, I almost can't believe mine's the same after aging.

Pretty sweet backpack, me gusta :) I think I wear too much black, so I usually like to have a bit of colour for my bags :p Trying to instill the same ideals with my nephew, as I bought him a super colourful backpack from this company www.ergobag.com. I don't think that you can get more colourful than their backpacks :D
