The bag is the same and great - but the made the straps shorter - I’m a big guy and this is the 3rd RSS I bought and the straps for bigger guys are super short. I have suggested this bag to so many guys with broad shoulders - no more !!! They made it for small shouldered people
Not terrible, but I pack heavy so a bit of a disappointment. The straps are solid overall, the laptop sleeve is way too narrow and there is no where for your water bottle. There's some side pockets but they don't work for drinks (maybe a 12oz soda can, or small grocery store bottle). Remaining storage is good and the protector pocket on top is a good feature.
If you live without the water bottle and carry something equivalent to a Chromebook, Mac air or tablet then it's a good pack.
I used my other Ogio backpack till the wheels fell off. Personal, work, travel, and everything in between. I didn't think I'd ever be able to replace it The Renegade RSS is better than advertised. So much storage without feeling bulky.
I bought this bag back in October, 2017 and it still looks new. I've traveled the USA and through Europe with it, including taking it to work every day for a year in London, and there's not a tear, fray, or rip in it anywhere. 2017... That's when people still used iPods! Great back and I highly recommend it.
I bought this backpack last month and it's worked better than I thought. I use it for work and with all the compartments it has really kept me more organized. Also a big draw for me to purchase it was the fact that me getac toughbook computer fits in
