Authentic – please see all pictures. This was my every day bag up until this weekend when I bought a new one. It has been very well loved. The outside is still in decent shape, considering how much I used it. No major rubbing at the corners. There’s a few spot which I highlighted. Most of the wear is on the straps and around the top piping. The inside has some dirt, inside pocket has peeling. If you’re looking for a project bag, or just a bag that still is very functional, this is the bag for you. I am open to fair and reasonable offers only please. If you present an insulting offer, I will decline. I have priced this with all of this in mind. If I don’t get what I want for the bag, I’ll use it as my gym bag.
