Wow, thanks for the quick reply. I would be interested in opinions about that bag. I should also mention that I would prefer to the buy a durable bag made in the USA, but $60 vs. $150-$250 is certainly a big price difference. The downside of the Patagonia is that it is made overseas and with cheaper material. I don't know about the Weekender though.
