[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I regularly use this bag for air travel and initially was concerned even this monster wouldnt be enough to carry all the things I needed to ensure were with me at all times this was to be my primary carry on item. So far it's been up to the task and then some. It fits 2 15.6" laptops, and iPad, over the ear headphones in hard case and tons of misc charging adapters, external hard drives. Fit's my digital nomad lifestyle very well, also when im in a location other than the airport the thermal pocket is quite nice for keeping drinks. No questions or comments on the durability of this bag yet, but I will say that it's survived 4 round trip's and TSA thus far. Looks and feels brand new.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took this with me on an international vacation. Wanted something that would hold my laptop, phone, water, & day-to-day souvenirs. This bad boy did the trick. It's amazing how much you can cram in here! Sometimes I was afraid it would tear or rip in certain parts because of how much I was stretching the poor thing, but I did an "after trip" inspection, and there was no visible sign of tearing at all. Also, the design of this pack prevents any "easy" theft from behind because of the way the top flap lays over all the zipper parts. Really a great pack overall! Love it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] compared to Swiss gear I preferred to buy this one because of the size of the bag.

I bought it on my trip to Toronto and its my best buy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great backpack with well-placed features. Each pocket can hold different items from electronics to paper and these pockets are well-protected from the elements or theft (i.e. the flap is really helpful and reassuring). I have not had to use it, but the hidden raincover is a welcome feature to protect my valuables. I bought this just before I traveled abroad (backpacking in the Philippines), and I was very confident that my items were both safe and sound in my backpack. Now, I use this for everyday work, travel, and school, and I love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this on a whim because it was the only one in the store that would fit the absolute unit of a laptop that I bought,abd I am impressed. I love the added protection of the hood that covers all the zipper pockets. Everything seems to stay where you want it and it has alot of convenient compartments for storage of peripherals chargers etc. Comes with a I pack rain cover for added protection. Flew across the country twice with it already and made it through tsa easily. Plus it looks really sleek and streamlined so, that's awesome too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing is awesome the laptop/console pocket is suspended two inches from the base.it hasa padded tablet pocket attached directly to the laptop pocket. I loaded it with all my Xbox1 accessories including large headphone case and elite controller case, PLUS everything in my Okley backpack. This thing has the same sunglasses compartment and an extra insulated pocket. I cold stuff five redbulls in there. The padding is everywhere. I considered a console only case, but instead retired my everyday backpack and am loving this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this primarily to protect my 17" laptop on a cross-country trip. This thing is fantastic, with designated slots for the laptop, a tablet, books, cables, and everything else I needed to pack. I especially liked the flap that snaps shut over the top, protecting all of the zippered areas. That top flap also has a very convenient zippered slot for things you need access to immediately, like boarding passes and ID. This is a great backpack with a lot of thought and experience in the design, plus it is very sturdy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought that with thick shoulder straps and a sternum strap that it would be a comfortable backpack. With even a light load it was very uncomfortable. I was also surprised at how little capacity there was once you put in some IT items. Several reviewers on YouTube have the same assessment. This backpack is more "vertical" than most to accommodate large laptops easily. But that orientation cuts into storage. I also think the hot/cold storage compartment is pretty small--it might hold some snacks but not much else.

If you need a great bag to organize, carry a laptop/tablet (or both) securely while keeping your other daily admin items organized, this is a terrific bag of choice. I wouldn't use this for a backpack outing in the woods, but for day to day in the urban jungle - this is the goto bag. Fits both my 17" laptop and 14" laptop simultaneously - with room to spare. Well designed, comfortable to wear, the front handle is a huge bonus - you don't think about it until you get in and out of your vehicle 100 times a day and find it super easy to grab with you from the seat next to you or behind you. very well though out design. Highly recommend. Prior to this - every pack I've bought in the last ten years has been 5.11 - I have high standards and this one surpasses them all.
