Review on Samsonite Kombi Business Backpack in Black/Brown 🎒 - 17.5 x 12 x 7-inch: Sleek and Functional by Brian Wright

Received this because my standard holdall would no longer fit under an already narrow aisle seat as the box is heavily bolted to the floor on planes these days is the IFE [Flight Entertainment] box, I was told what they are called. It fits into this smaller space because it's, well, small. I travel with a lot of stuff that I have to learn to do without: the usual "I can't do without" e-waste, snacks, usually a book and one or two magazines, pens, pencils, paper, travel diary, planning calendar, reading glasses, passport , wallet and phone; When it's all there - with expanded pockets to hold all your stuff, it fits comfortably in the main compartment, 1 of 3; The other two, one for your laptop, fit in your hand up to that point, and that's it - so if something falls on the floor, you can't rummage through a compartment without taking out some of the stuff. It has served its compact purpose though, with stylish and neat square edges that hold their shape, padding in all the right places, comfortable enough to keep you from hunching over. Color choices are limited to two matte colors that hide dirt - either way, insecure men aren't perceived as carrying a women's backpack - damn it, not that! But these days navy blue or black? TO UPDATE. Now that I've taken it with me on several trips, it's way too small. if you pack too many things in a backpack, like i do, the compartments become too narrow and you have to take things out, if something works, they are on the bottom. I like its compact size and it looks great - I'm just not the traveler for it.
