Great eco-friendly bag

I got this bag as a Christmas gift and I've been very happy with it. It's made mostly of wax canvas instead of nylon. The canvas feels very durable and offers some water repellency. The bottom is made of recycled rubber, the interior has a recycled PET Liner, and the closing clip on the top flap is made of recycled aluminum. Overall the bag feels quite sturdy and I expect it will last a long time.

There's a medium sized front compartment for things like cell phone, keys, etc. There's one main compartment with a flat slip pocket so you can separate items a little bit. The slip pocket is good for keeping papers nice. Inside the main compartment is another small zippered compartment, as well as a padded pocket that works well for an mp3 player. The top flap has yet another small zippered compartment, and if that weren't enough, there's an open pocket on the back of the bag. The product description calls it a "magazine pocket".

There's only one thing I don't like about it, which is that it doesn't sit flat on the ground when you put it down. It leans (and usually falls) forward, onto the front pouch which in my case has breakable items like cell phone and PDA. It would be nice if the bottom was made to sit flat on the ground. Other than that, I love it.
