Epperson Mountaineering™ climb tote

Dimensions: 14.5 x 13 x 4.5in, very well made out of durable nylon and good for carrying around during daily subway commute. You can clip small items such as sunblock or daily pass to outside loops.

When I saw this online (in clay - aka orange) I expected it to be much larger. Pulling it out of the box as a neatly folded 5 x 5 orange piece of fabric I was dissapointed but started shoving the things I'd need for the next few hours inside. The straps were softer than I was expecting, especially for woven nylon straps that narrow. The bag itself felt good too, softer than I was expecting but sturdy. I thought it was small but I had been able to fit a towel, jeans, tee, button up, down vest, belt, undies, survival knife, tablet, wallet, keys, phone, executive size notebook, planner , pixel buds, pack of gum, bag of candy, water bottle, Swim practice clipboard that's about an inch thick, pouch of dry erase markers, a couple pairs of goggles, pouch of dive toys (for my swim lessons), and 3 pairs of swim paddles (for my swimmers to borrow). After seeing what all fit I was 100% sold. So much so that I'm pre-ordering the red one.

I really wanted to love this tote. It's orange, it's happy, it's durable. But that's about it. Def a case of photo was larger in scale than actual product. No interior pockets, just the odd exterior loops that pardon my ignorance, are to be use for what ? At best it's a city market tote for small grocery purchases. Dimensions would have been nice J .Crew.
