EMS 'Short Circuit' Laptop Backpack

This item is an EMS (Eastern Mountain Sports) 'Short Circuit' model backpack, primarily designed for day-to-day use, commuters, or students, featuring a dedicated cushioned laptop pocket. The backpack exhibits a multi-color design, predominantly dark blue for the main sections, with a contrasting light gray bordering the main front pocket and a black lower section and side mesh pockets. The materials appear to be durable synthetic fabrics, likely nylon or polyester, chosen for their resilience and water resistance typical of outdoor and casual bags. The construction involves multiple zippered compartments, with visible robust zippers and attached pull tabs for easy access. The front of the bag features the 'EMS' logo stitched in white, and 'SHORT CIRCUIT' is printed in white letters on the black lower panel. All zippers are confirmed to be in working order. The overall condition is described as 'good' and 'very clean,' with no visible wear, tears, stains, or damage apparent from the image. The stitching appears intact and even, indicating good craftsmanship. No visible repairs are noted. The presence of a cushioned laptop pocket suggests a modern design, likely from the 2000s or later. The bag is free from any discernible odors, indicating careful ownership and storage.
