3.0 out of 5 starsThe product picture is incorrect - olive drab is really brown.

Well, I’ve tried twice. Undeniably, what is labeled as “olive drab” is brown. I was looking for a replacement to the threadbare Rothco heavyweight messenger bag that has been my daily global companion for 3 years now. The olive drab photo on Amazon definitely looks the same as the one I have, but the color is decidedly brown. Thinking maybe it was a mistake, I ordered again. For the second time, brown. The Amazon photo is misleading. My photo shows the Rothco “olive drab” versus the Sweetbriar “olive drab.”
The bag itself seems to be well stitched and capable. These bags are droopy and unformed, but amazingly voluminous and versatile. Unlike the Rothco version this one has a grab handle, although it doesn’t have the snaps on the outside end pockets the Rothco does.
