I bought two of these (http://www.alpinesportsoutlet.com/pc-1598-40-timbuk2-hayes-womens-daypack.aspx) on Steep and Cheap, not quite believing the "women's" part of the description and thinking my husband might want one for school. Well, I should have trusted the description, because the shoulder straps are very close together for narrower shoulders -- perfect for me but not for him. (Plus, he says it's girly looking. WHATEVER.)
So I have an extra, unused, still with the tags. It's the peacock/silver color, although it is not as bright in person as the one in the link is. Here (http://www.mobilewhack.com/reviews/timbuk2_hayes_day_pack.html) is a pretty good review. I love mine a lot -- I have had TimBuk2 messenger bags for years, and I have a laptop carrier, but carrying a bag with a laptop in a shoulder bag is murder if you have to do any walking. I use this daypack on and off the bike, and I can carry quite a lot in it before it bothers my shoulders. The weight distribution is much better for cycling than with a lot of backpacks, although like any backpack it can be a little hot. But it has great organizer pockets, and it's cute. (And girly!)
$25, PayPal only, US shipping included in that price. If you are outside the US we'll have to figure out the actual cost of shipping and work something out. PM me if you are interested.
