This is Brown Buffalo's take on the classic book bag, with a bunch more features and organisation added, as well as an extra front pocket with more depth. Crucially it slots over the handle of a pull along case and has a slot against your back for a passport, ticket etc.
They cranked these out as a limited edition1680D ballistic nylon with waterproof zippered, a light 420D nylon and this model, which is a 1680D ballistic polyester with waterproof zippers (I don't ever rate zippers as fully waterproof). The front pocket has a decent amount of depth to it and will easily take a waterproof jacket as well as additional kit.
Material: Black Ballistic 1680D polyester, Spacer Mesh back portion.
Size: 470H x 330W x160D (18.5H x 13W x 6.5D).
Capacity: 25 litres ish
Manufacturers blurb:
The Standard Issue is a classic American backpack. Manufactured to modern specifications, the Standard Issue represents the best in American casual while maintaining functional details for its purpose built use.

Pictures:
Apologies, it's very hard to photograph this bag and I've probably made that worse by using a black chair as a backdrop.
Condition:
Excellent condition. I've carried it to work for a couple of weeks and giving it a quick scan over it looks like it's in great nick.
Price:
Cost me around £145 landed, as I recall. I'm asking £75 posted to UK
