This is a great backpack. I've only used it for one tri so far but I like it very much.
It has plenty of room, I can fit my wetsuit in as well as all of my other necessary gear.
Haven't found any downside.

Great Bag!!!  Lots of Room.  Would be nice if it had some kind of clips to hook stuff on the outside of the bag, but overall a wonderful product!!!

I use this as my everyday gym back.  It has space for all of my work clothes, toiletries and towell and plenty of room to spare.  My only complaint is the wet compartment being on the bottom, you pretty much have to pack your wet towell in there before filling the main compartment.  Still a great bag though.

I teach swimming all summer and carry a lot of stuff. The bag itself is lightweight to start with and if I don't fill it too full (it has a very large main compartment) I can carry it with one strap. I still look like I'm leaving  for a week but I have had a lot of compliments on the bag.

We're very pleased with the look, durability and size of the bag. I ordered the large size for my two boys, ages 09 and 10. They're competitive swimmers and use only this bag to carry all of their practice equipment. We do not  find the need to carry an extra mesh bag any longer!

I'm a masters swimmer and I've found this to be a great bag that holds all the stuff I need it to.  4 stars instead of 5 because I wish it had pockets better suited on the outside for water/drink bottles.  Other than that, working well for me.
