Great travel pack with clever details

I bought this backpack about a month ago and took it on a week-long trip and used it for my commute to work along with additional gym clothes. It’s lightweight but sturdy, easily fits my 13" Macbook and iPad Pro and offers lots of room for clothes, camera gear. I especially chose it for the clamshell design that makes packing und unpacking a lot easier. My expectations were fully met and so far I could not find anything that really bugs me. The top compartment for smaller items is easy to access and fits chargers, AirPods, a wallet and sunglasses. What I do not quite get is the magnetic bottom pocket where I would never put in something besides the additional straps (which I did not use yet). I would not trust it to keep things safely stored when e.g. I’m on a bumpy bike ride. Anyway, great backpack which will hopefully stay with me for a long time.

Improve the belt and strap for 5 stars.

Great materials, love all the pockets but very much let down by waist belt and chest strap just not up to snuff when the pack is full.
Recently moved internationally with this travel pack filled with a small and a smedium PD cube with all my camera gear and all the things that go along with it. Like HDs, chargers, etc. Ill just say that the idea of the waist straps are better than the reality. The waist belt does not do a good enough job to support the weight of a full pack and the chest strap is more for show than anything else as well.
I bike around town a lot and use this to run some errands when i am just out and about and again when it has a fair amount of things in it it just does not feel that comfortable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great travel bag

Became my go to bag for all travel occasions. Bag is big and durable enough for cameras, laptop, ipad, clothes and easy pack up with PD packing pouches. Shoulder strap is thick and comfortable, less stress on shoulders and back with them. Bag is a bit heavier than previous travel bags I owned but feels strong at all points of straps, so I guess it evens out weight for durability.

A dream come true

I bought a bag this past spring in preparation for summer travel and I am SO glad I did. I love this backpack! It's the backpack I want to travel everywhere with! Its color is easily recognizable, its features are incredibly helpful, and it fits all the stuff I need in a carry-on. I love the security features and the different compartments in the bag. It is, as advertised, easy to access from the sides and from the back. And, it's incredibly high quality. Thank you for making such an excellent travel backpack.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome Travel Bag

I bought this 45L backpack in September 2019 and took it with me to Kenya for a 5 day safari trip. It fit my 100-400mm Fuji lens plus my other camera gear and the rest of recommended safari trip packing list to Masai Mara. The recommended weight is 33 lbs and had to be soft-sided for a bush plane. This bag was everything I expected it to be. It's been my companion on my trips all over Europe and Asia. It's still holding up pretty well.

Zipper heaven

Always seem to overpack when traveling, both for business and pleasure. Since purchasing the 45L Travel Backpack, I’ve found it difficult to choose any other type of bag or luggage for my trips. No need to check bags during flights. The biggest advantage, and what I really appreciate most, besides the flexibility of the Travel Backpack, are the zippers. After 2.5 years of constant travel, daily use, and frequent overpacking, the zippers still hold up excellently.
