I received one as a gift and set it aside as it was the orange accent style. When I purchased a motorcyclle for my primary transport I needed a laptop case that fit the motorcycle trunk and found that the orange one did. After retrieveing the 2 year old bag from the storage area, I placed it into daily use for about a year and a half prior to the zippers wearing out. I looked for a replacement and was willing to spend up to ***, but could not find anything that met my requirements. I found the black accent unit here and immediately purchased one. After about 30K of motorcycle mileage, the laptop has not suffered any damage inside this case.
