Notabag Original Red Brush

Generally really like the concept. We ordered the Sand, and it's a darker peachy tan in person than in the product photos, which I did not love. Also, the backpack orientation would benefit from a closure - a snap, a Velcro strip, something to keep you from being pickpocketed while you can't see the bag. Also, wearing it as a tote on one shoulder was a worse experience than a typical tote, because the straps slide through the convertible backpack strap openings. I also did not love the nylon texture - I know this is common for packable tote bags, but I would have much preferred a canvas or cotton, to look less plastic-y. It would make the bag substantially more versatile - nylon is an inherently casual fabric that really screams grocery shopping. Overall, great idea, but not right for me.
