I've had this for a couple years. It's very well made and I believe lifetime warranty (or used to be at least). The straps can actually be used as a passthrough if you flip it around. The straps can also be a bit a awkward and annoying if you get in and out of the bag a lot. Will fit under seat but leaves no room for feet at this size. The bottle holder holds a slimmer bottle like a tall 22, well but not a large bottle like a 32 oz.
Looks like new model in bound(?) so they're clearing out this one. Always hate the ambiguity with outdoors companies and when they switch to new versions.
Great bag, I've had the 65L version (older model) for over 7 years now and it's been handling great. Just note that the Farpoint/Fairview series are gonna be slightly better comfortability wise if you're gonna be wearing it around everywhere you travel. That being said, I usually just need my backpack to get me from the airport to the hotel and I'm rarely ever wearing it, so I'd rather have the extra 6 liters and huge duffel style packing over the smaller 40L Farpoint with two smaller, pre-portioned pockets.
Laptop on the Porter also sits close to your back whereas (at least the older models) of the Farpoint have it on the outside of the pack. I think Farpoint is for one baggers who hike and bring their bags around while the Porter is more for of a business oriented or "stuff as much as you can and never wear it"
