Question

Samara Ocean Backpack: I’ve carried this daily for about 2 years - it’s sleek enough to look professional but practical enough to keep everything organized with a solid interior pocket system. I constantly have different pens, measuring tape etc when I’m going to job sites and it’s easy to find what I need in this bag.

Only addition I’d make is a spot for a water bottle, the front pocket is too roomy to hold one upright securely.

Other pluses: it’s made from recycled water bottles, it’s easy to keep clean and the price point for a work bag isn’t hideous.
