I love the expression you said: Small, petite but elite. Thanks for the review. I bought it after watching your review the other day. I love backpacks, I have many! But I wanted a small, city style backpack for when I just want to take the camera with 1 lens or 1 larger lens + a small prime, some headphones while in transit or a place to keep gloves / scarves while not in use while out - You know, for when shooting isn't the objective of the day but you want to take your gear with you and some more personal stuff. Taking a 21L or 30L bag for just a meetup with some friends is overkill... This will hopefully fill the need! Thanks for the reviews!
I use my 15L as a spare time / go around the city / weekend / vacation kind of bag. It being way more bike friendly compared to a bag is one of the reasons I went for it (bags are quite awkward to bike with). I don't regularly commute, but the times I've biked with it it's worked out great for me at least. The thing I found a bit awkward was how to fasten the bike helmet to the bag and it tends to flop around a bit, though I think maybe using the external fasteners would help with that. The Everyday Backpack in comparison because of it's shape the helmet tended to just stay put on the back. Still, I find it a great casual bag for urban stuff and I imagine it can work quite well for hiking as well. Great review! I actually learned that I had those two smaller organizers in the pouch next to the laptop/tablet sleeve and I wouldn't have known that if not for this review! So thanks!
How secure are the contents? I’m thinking of a city break. Can someone just unzip the bag and steal my camera or lens from the top compartment while it is on my back?
Would you recommend this bag, or a different small one for an EDC/lightweight hiking bag? I plan to carry an r6 mark ii, 1-2 lenses, water, and some snackies :)

V secure as the zips are lockable :)
