Would you recommend the The Pack-A-Derm to a friend? YES
Pros:
High quality materials, strong yet comfortable feel while being worn, roomy for its size.
Cons:
Armor Gear does not have a store and/or authorized sellers in the Philippines.
Purchased From: Online seller/retailer from the Philippines
Review: I bought this bag just a few days ago for a bargain price of $43.51 from an online seller/retailer in my country, the Philippines.
I think he sold it very cheap because nobody here recognizes the brand (most Filipinos are brand-conscious; I'm not) and so nobody is buying.
The Pack-A-Derm is surprisingly made of very sturdy materials. Even just basing from its looks, you'll know it's one tough bag. I placed it next to my brother's similarly priced bag at home (i.e., $110.00) whose brand I won't name here, and even he can tell the difference: Armor Gear's The Pack-A-Derm stands out. I can feel that this bag will last with me for years.
Beyond the looks, let me just say as well that this bag is perfect for bumpy rides, particularly in a Third World country like mine. It's spacious enough inside, but--interestingly--my things (especially my Lenovo ThinkPad T400) don't get "juggled" during those rides; they're all safe and in place.
In short, I love this bag and it will surely be my most trusted gear especially when I travel outside Philippine cities (where roads are much bumpier).
Next time I see another Armor Gear bag (I'm currently looking for The Pack Mule) available locally here in the Philippines, I won't have seconds thoughts in buying it--even if the price won't be that cheap.

Pros:
Superior quality, large capacity, many pockets, water resistant, rugged.
Cons:
No Longer In Stock :(
Purchased From: From ebags (I think)
Review: By the nature of the job, I have to carry laptops, sensitive documents, and plenty of miscellaneous gear quickly into tough environments. This bag never let me down.
It has plenty of obvious and recessed pockets to separate your valuables. The quality of the zippers and straps ensure that it will stand up to strains. It is very water resistant unless in a full on downpour. The main pockets are sizable enough to separate your books from your laptop from your clothes, etc. The rearmost compartment designed to handle CDs and other smaller electronics without damaging them. It even has a small clothed compartment which is excellent for sunglasses. I could go on.
My only complaint is that this bag is dicontinued and I cannot yet find a bag that approaches the Pack-A-Derm in overall quality, usefullness, value. If you know where, I can find one, please let me know. Take care.
