Hello.
Today we are going to be doing something a little bit different
because I have this super cool backpack from Gootium
and I want to tell you all about it
the name Gootium comes from the Latin word otium
which means to relax, let go,
forget about stress, get out into nature
and just chill and return to the simple life
with comfort and freedom.
Sounds like my type of life.
The reason that I bring that up is because this bag embodies
that philosophy completely with its vintage design
and its environmentally friendly.
Before I start off I want to give a big thanks to Gootium
for sending me this bag and for sponsoring this video.
Thank you.
Although they are sponsoring the video all of the thoughts are my own
and I am giving you 100% honest review of this bag.
As you can probably tell this bag is made from washed canvas material
and all of the trims and details on the bag are made from genuine leather
and the buckles are made out of the metal.
So all this adds to the sturdiness of the bag.
The top of the bag has a cover flap
which you can secure with these buckles
but under that there is also a drawstring to get to your things.
So I love this because it adds double protection for all of my stuff.
I'm a super freak when it comes to protecting my belongings
and I feel like some backpacks really missed the mark on this one
and having double entrance to get into my stuff is super important to me
so I absolutely love that this backpack has both of those things.
Because of the sturdiness of the bag
I completely trust it with everyday life hustle and bustle,
going to school, going to work, going to...
I don't know whatever it is that you do every day
but this is super duper sturdy bag
and I feel like you could just toss it around,
you can put your books in there,
it even has a compartment for your laptop.
Because of the size of the backpack it easily fits my 15 inch MacBook Pro
which is awesome.
The bag has a number of compartments,
it has two pockets in the front
that close with magnetic clasps.
And inside there are two little slip pockets
and a pocket that has a zipper on it
for those very secretive belongings like your wallet, keys and fidget spinner.
The backpack has two straps on the back
that are adjustable which I love
because being a petite person as I am
sometimes it's pretty hard finding bags
that won't hang all the way to my knees so.
Because of the material of the bag
you can actually fold it up pretty well
and store it away if you want
which I like because I'm all about organization.
There's only two things
that I am not a huge fan off of the bag
but they're really very minor things and very specific to me.
One of them is because of the fact that I am a petite person,
this bag is a little bit too big for me to use on an everyday basis
I prefer using smaller bags
but because of how big it is
I would definitely use this for traveling
and like going on road trips.
It would be perfect for camping as well
because it has so much space inside.
You could probably fit like four days of clothes inside of here
it's just, it's that big inside.
The second thing is that I would have loved it
if it came in another color
although I do love the vintage army look of the olive green
it is a little bit harder for me to match with most of my clothes.
I would have preferred something that maybe was like a navy color
but I do love this green color
so I am a little bit biased on that end
because I do love the shade of green
it's probably my favorite shade of greens.
So they got me on that one.
So again, those are two very minor things and very specific to me
but if you think that this bag is for you or you want to check it out
then take a look at the link in the description below.
Gootium sells these bags on Amazon
and I think that it's well worth your money
if you have a trip coming up or if you are going back to school
then this is definitely a bag that you should consider.
Thank you so much to Gootium for sponsoring this video.
Again, everything that I said was 100% honest
and I really do like this bag
and I think it's a great bag
and if I didn't think so then I would not recommend it.
