Review on Fallin Padded Backpack 17 Inch Laptops Backpacks by Kimberly Bryant

My recent Revain purchase is a replacement for the same backpack I bought from Costco a few years ago. The cat liked the original and "marked" it as his own. The only replacement would be a backpack - exactly the same. I work as a programmer, so I carry my 15-inch MacBook Pro along with a wide variety of accessories, cables, books, and other personal items. This backpack has enough pockets for everything you need and still has space. It has the best combination of compactness and storage space I have ever seen in a backpack. As others have pointed out, a 17-inch laptop is unlikely to easily fit in a laptop bag. Although my 15" is fine. I don't use chest straps and find them in the way, so I removed those two short straps. You may need them if you do a lot of walking or backpacking. I don't. One small one I have to report a defect. Out of habit, I always lift a heavily loaded backpack by the left shoulder strap. Within a year or so, some of the stitching on this strap came undone. Fortunately, the stitching involved is not load-bearing but is more decorative. This was not a problem and was annoying just a little bit about the looks. In general, if a cat ruins my backpack again, I look for one of them. I love it and can highly recommend it!
