A demonstration of how much can fit into the Zhoe! It's about the same that can fit into the Little Athena, for those curious. I was super impressed because this time, I tried to fit a water bottle in, and to my surprise... it did! I couldn't zip it up with the water bottle on top, BUT it didn't make my Zhoe bulge at the top or look as if it was holding too much / was too "full".
(I actually have two water bottles that could potentially fit into Zhoe, but the other one is a much smaller size. This water bottle is 20oz, which is perfect for situations when I'm not sure if I would have the ability to re-fill, for example.)
The water bottle was stored unzipped at the top of the main compartment. In theory I also could have zipped up the main compartment if I had stashed the water bottle on the bottom, but in most scenarios I would probably have the water bottle on top - after taking a drink, I probably wouldn't take the time to jigsaw the water bottle back into the bottom.
I also included two pictures of what it looks like from the top-down, with and without the water bottle stacked on all the stuff.
Not Pictured:
- my car keys (would likely replace the work keys/fobs at the bottom, center)
- smartphone (Google Pixel 3; stored in the exterior slip pocket or inside main compartment)
- extra portable battery (was charging at the time I took this picture; would go into a slip pocket)
Interior Zip Pocket (all items to the right of the water bottle):
- re-usable chopsticks
- travel-size sunscreen
- lip balm x2
Slip Pockets:
- purse hanger (top right), pen, microfiber cloth
- car keys or work keys/fobs
- extra portable battery
