AB Workout Equipment: adidas Metro Sackpack Review

I have several different sackpacks from different companies and this one is probably the best of the lot.It's a little bit bigger than the others and can hold a decent amount of stuff.It has a flap which covers the top.The flap has a velcro strip to hold it in place, but the velcro is pretty flimsy and can easily come off.Still it's better than nothing.The flap also has a zippered pocket built into it.You can toss a cell phone or Ipod into it and not have to worry about digging to the bottom of the bag or opening the bag up to reach it.That's very convenient.It's fairly stylish without being either too plain or too gaudy and comes in several different color combinations to suit different tastes.The overall construction is decent.No better or worse than any of my other sackpacks.I use it primarily when I travel by bike, but it's also convenient when I just need to bring a bag of stuff with me.Open it up, toss everything in, cinch it up and off I go.

Update 11/15/08
After a couple more months of use, I am disappointed to say that the bag is starting to fall apart rather quickly.There are a lot of stray threads starting to appear, and the little black rubber attachment on the flap (above the Adidas logo) has almost completely pulled away.I'm going to have to downgrade the bag to 2-stars for durability issues.
