So far this bag has been an excellent find. I needed a new bag for work and travel, but it needed to hold my 17" laptop. This one does that with room to spare, has a good amount of organizational options. and isn't as bulky as many of the other options that would hold a 17" laptop. The straps are extremely comfortable, even when loaded down with the big laptop and power brick. This is my first bag that slips over the handle on a suitcase and I won't buy another without it... that was SO much nicer than wearing it on my back as I went through airports and waited for connections. Similarly, I added chest straps to the attach points, and that made wearing it for longer periods more comfortable. I didn't mind that it didn't come with straps since I was able to add a pop of personal color. The main handle on the top feels sturdy and comfortable, no worries about that breaking any time soon. Having the dedicated table holder is nice, kept it from floating around and getting knocked in the bag.
There are still a couple spots that could be improved, but they are all minor quibbles:
- the zipper get catch on the interior fabric sometimes, better clearance there would help. The fabric itself is nice and allows items to slid in and out easily.
- I don't get why some zippers have nice fabric pulls and others are hard plastic, I would like them all to be the fabric. The plastic ones feel cheap by comparison.
- I'm not a particular fan of the color of the gold lining fabric and accent color on the zipper pulls. Options for different colors there would be great.
- maybe it will get better as it breaks in more, but the bag has a tendency to fall forward when sat upright. Would be nice if it was a little better balanced. As is, I tend to sit it backwards against something so it doesn't fall over.
- the laptop restraint strap seems too long. Even with my large laptop it is still really loose and can't be tightened due to where they put the Velcro. I just tuck it inside and don't use it since it didn't really secure anything, and got in the way of the zipper when I did try to use it.

8+ years and going strong

I have owned this bag for 8+ years now. I regularly fly multiple times a month, wear it on construction sites to carry all my gear, and it has held up very well. I have considered buying it again, but after this long my original is still going strong. Only downside I found is the zipper handle broke, but easily fixed by putting a key ring on it.

I was looking for a backpack that was slimmer and taller. I pack everything in this thing for work and it’s fantastic. There’s a spot for everything and more. So far the durability is great as well.

Great backpack for travel or daily business / gym.

I received this from a previous employer as a business award. I don’t know what the negative reviewers were doing with it but mine has been used for work / leisure travel around the US & Europe, & daily carry for work / gym. Aside from a couple of good cleanings for gym odors it has been flawless. 2-3 day trips it’s all I need as the main compartment is huge & the laptop area holds work & personal laptops & tablet. Plenty of compartments to keep organized.
The only reasons I’m looking to replace it are that it’s a bit big for my daily needs now & has my former company logo on it!
