Throughout our almost 25-year history of designing bags, we’ve always kept an eye on how to improve the way people carry their gear through the city. From durability to waterproofness, we’ve developed bags to handle the specific rigors of city-living. With the Avail we wanted to take on something new: comfort. From ultralight backpacking gear to running shoes to industrial architecture, we brought technology, fabrics and manufacturing techniques together to create something truly unique. The most comfortable backpack you’ll ever wear.
I use the bag to walk to and from work, the bag sits just right the straps are wide and padded well and don't dig in, only problem is my back doesn't breath well and gets sweaty, but that's me with every bag

To be clear, I love this bag; I use it everyday as a researcher who can work from any location. It looks great, is incredibly comfortable – to the point where I find myself resenting my Osprey pack whenever I wear it – and has great utility. It has just enough pockets and places to stow stuff. Some bags stuff from packing way too much in, but the Avail nails it. There's a place for my keys, my computer, my pens, my battery, my water bottle, and important docs. That's... about it. The rest is just open space, and it feels bigger but looks smaller than something like the Bravo. It's also light, which is great for days when I can go minimalist. Yay, Chrome! You make things I like! Take my money! What could be better: The chest strap came off within two week. The female end recently came off another four or five months later. Unlike other Chrome bags, this one has no places to put accessory pouches, and it is not compatible with the Chrome keychain, one of my favorite features of my Bravo. The netting of the water bottle pocket is already showing wear after five months I have the white one, and scuff marks are now noticeable.

Too big. I wish there where some tie down straps to make the bag smaller when not loaded. While the headline talks about how comfortable this bag is I am note who wore it to check that. The back retains heat. THe straps are uncomfortable.

I commute by bike in Alabama. From May thru October it is hot! I bought this bag because 1)it looked so sharp 2)the way they've designed the padding to minimize heat is innovative and working pretty well in high humidity and 93 degrees. #sweepstakes
