A big, big bag, but not much more

The Kearney bag is HUGE, but that's about it. It has a shiny, plastic look to it, thanks to the rice bag material. It's large enough to hold a semester's worth of books, a laptop and it's peripherals, or a picnic. The side and top pockets are convenient and easy to access. The main clasp for the bag can be hard to open one-handed. The hook for the flap doesn't always stay closed. The straps are wide, which is good for balancing the weight but may cut in if you have narrow shoulders. The fabric can be irritating to bare skin.

Considering how much eBags charged me for this bag ($50), I was expecting more. I am expecting it to last for a while, provided I don't abuse it.
