Kipling New Shopper Small Tote Bag

This is my second Seoul large backpack. I had my old one for over 11 years. The zipper failed and I repurchased this one to replace it. This newer version has side pockets to hold bottles which my old one did not however inside the smaller zippered area, the new one has 1 pocket sleeve versus the 2 my old one had. My old bag had the original monkey this one has the modern monkey, so I was surprised but I just hooked my old monkey on this new bag. I find that the back has better support and more cushioning compared to the old one. I hope to get as much time or more out of this bag too.

Lightweight and perfect size for airline travel. My only add would be an additional carabiner/loop on the strap to help stabilize the movement of the strap when you change it back and forth from crossbody to shoulder. I removed the rubber ape - either use the original furry guy or omit it.
