    Good gym bag

    Nice bag, for the price you’d think a shoulder strap would be included.

    Gym bag, but amped up

    I tend to use this for the gym - though it is more versatile than that.

    It's the perfect size for a gym bag. When under-filled, the pocketing slims down nicely to drape well when being carried off one shoulder, or cross-body.

    The O-rings in each compartment make it easy to attach smaller organizational items as needed. I put Grab Bags inside of it (because overall this bag feels like a 10x bigger version of the Grab Bag!). If you want a stiffer version, get the ballistic. if you want it more lightweight and crushable get Halcyon or Cordura (I've got Cordura).

    The end loops are great for hanging the bag vertically in a locker, or in a closet for storage. Grab handles are angled inward to make it easier to carry cross-body without them interfering or bending in a way that's annoying.

    For a sense of size, the big main compartment can zip close with a football in it, but not with a full sized basketball or soccer ball. Those can be carried in it securely, but the bag won't fully close.

    Also a day pack!

    I recently bought the OSCA to use as a day pack along with my T45 for a carry-on only trip to Costa Rica. Between the two, I had space to spare. I bought the absolute shoulder strap and used it for the OSCA while using the T45 in backpack mode. I was overwhelmed with colour choices, but got both bag in 1050, Steel for T45 and Burnt Orange for the OSCA. I think they look lovely together!

    The mesh side pocket was great for sandy damp towel or my water bottle. I’m fairly certain the my sunblock stained the OSCA a bit, but I don’t mind a bit of history or memories included with the bag. Comfy, versatile, useful as a walk around town purse/cross body bag, well made, unique, perfect sized beach bag … love this bag!

    Love this bag

    Not only a great gym bag but I recently used it for a one bag carry for a 4 day holiday travelling by plane.

    Clothes included 1 pair pants, 2 long sleeved tshirts, 1 skirt, 1 tank top, 1 camisole, 1 pair of tights, 1 pair of socks, 1 pair of shoes, 2 underpants and 1 lightweight puffer jacket.

    Also carried 1 iPad, 1 clear organiser for toiletries, 1 handle little thing for cables etc & 1 small travel tray.

    Plus shopped while away & bought 1 long sleeve, 1 short sleeve & 1 tank top. All lightweight merino. Had no trouble fitting the extra items in.

    Simple yet unique little duffel

    I usually don't write reviews but this thing is great. Almost everything from Tom Bihn I have not been disappointed by. The 3D pockets really help with organization and make the outer pockets much more useful than on similar sized bags. Handle straps are comfortable, and quality is top notch. I will comment that this bag is quite small in total volume (if you are expecting something larger this is the only negative that I can think of).
