A real workhorse for backpacks

After more than 3 years of ownership (as of 12/25/2016): PROS: - Sturdy bag as a whole; Particular attention should be paid to the bag base, zips, hanging loop and straps and buckles, which have held up to 3 years of daily use - Plenty of room in three well-designed compartments - A small top pocket is surprisingly useful for sunglasses - Lots Useful stuff Pockets in two outside compartments - Laptop pocket and tablet slot are comfortable and well padded - Looks great - understated but elegant…

Pros
  • Spacious and clear: plenty of space and plenty of storage compartments in each compartment as well as top and side pockets.
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Almost perfect, definitely a good buy!

My first trip with this bag was between Chicago and Minneapolis. Returning through Minneapolis was very difficult to get to the airport and gate. It helped not being able to use the trash can.

Pros
  • Side pocket with adjustable strap perfect for holding a water bottle
Cons
  • High price

Handy bag but not perfect

I took this to carry around my expensive new laptop. I travel a lot, so a dedicated laptop compartment and checkpoint-friendly features were the things I was looking for in a new backpack.

Pros
  • Dedicated 16" laptop sleeve provides easy access to your device to get through TSA or security checks.
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
