If you want a different color, REI has the Forest Olive variant for $74 as an 'outlet' item. Wait until the 14th and you can use the 20% off promo which brings it down to $60. But you might need an REI membership to use the promo.

Got mine too and I also love the color. Only thing I don't like is not having a better pocket for small stuff like wallet, keys, passport, etc. The one on the front has a nice soft liner but bigger would've been better.

How good would this be for someone using it to carry a camera? If anyone else happens to know based on that use case

I just received the holiday mailer a moment ago. I can confirm the 20% off promo is for members only. It's 20% off one full price item and 20% off one outlet item.

Do you have a promo code you could post for the 20 percent? I am a member but haven't received anything
