Review on Incase Two Way Convertible Brief Black by Tracy Mckeithen

My first thought was to buy the Bellroy Transit work pack. However, for some reason, they discontinued the black and charcoal colors. I bought the Incase Two-Way backpack/briefcase instead and I love it. I'm still curious and would like to compare them as I can't say Workpack is any more comfortable (if two-sided is comfortable enough). Advantages over the workpack: - Rightfully looks like a professional briefcase with the shoulder straps folded down. No one would have guessed that this was a Transformer, unlike bags of a similar nature. - Has a passage for luggage - Comes with a chest strap - Was on sale and was $95 cheaper than the Workpack. It's usually $150. Cons: - No dedicated water bottle pockets (I fixed this by buying a GSI Outdoor Boulder water bottle and storing it in one of the outside pockets) - Less internal volume (not a huge issue, but it's only useful when traveling. I have really don't mind as I don't see a bag allowing me to travel with the workpack.) Note: I'm not sure if anyone cares as much as I do, but the part that connects the two handles of the briefcase, breaks off if you don't want to use it. I thought it might be annoying having to open it every time in briefcase mode, but I love that it's fully detachable. This is only good for backpack mode so the handles don't dangle.
