This bag can do it all. I use it on weekdays to commute into the city - packing it full with a lunch bag, workout clothes, iPad, and more. On the weekends, it’s our family bag - stashing snacks, drinks, and loveys. Knowing it’s waterproof sets my mind at ease no matter what I’m doing. Something spills? Cleanups are a breeze. Added bonus - I’m complimented on this bag wherever I go!

I love this bag because I'm always on the run; whether it is going to work, traveling or headed to the gym, this bag is on me. The large size allows for my 15" MacBook fit with ease - although I do think it'd be nice if there was a laptop sleeve.

The shoe pocket on the side is nice for shoes or an extra outfit you may need throughout the day. Going from work to the gym is a breeze with this bag.

The only reason I subtracted a star is because my last one (the regular size) broke. The straps ripped off from the seams. I wish I could have rated this a 4.5 instead of a 4. The customer service when my bag broke was amazing. The response was quick, apologetic and a solution was made.

Overall, this is a great product and I use it daily!

Studio Tote Large gold hardware: the holy grail of convertible bags! Full stop. Excellent exterior. Incredible interior with pockets galore. I was looking for a large lightweight bag to use as a backpack after a weightlifting injury to my right piriformis and glute muscles. This is it! No pain. Distributed bag weight. I also bought Caraa's S and M cosmetic bags, and S and M pouches in gold which have dual use as clutches. More bronze than gold, however are a stunning complement to the Studio Tote and large black Nimbus. I bought the Nimbus as a carry-on for an upcoming trip to see my grandsons. Between the Studio Tote, Nimbus, and Caraa black travel case I believe I will be able to pack six days of stuff with ease -- and the bags won't be too heavy. Caraa rocks! Thank you for making my life easier with your well-thought-out, functional yet beautiful products. Shout-out to Katie in CS for helping me.

I love the versatility of this bag!!! I can wear it as a back pack as well as a tote!

This bag is great for the gym and a quick change of clothes. I only knock off a star because if you put shoes in it, it doesn't hold much else. I do like the backpack straps for heavier loads. I also love the hidden phone snap pocket on the outside. It is so convenient.
