> 24 hourI travel a lot and have an MSI gaming laptop. It fits perfectly in this backpack with plenty of room for me to pack stuff in. Very durable and lightweight even with my heavy laptop. Highly reccommend

> 24 hourLove this bag. Has many pockets that were well thought out and easy to navigate. It hangs well on the back and doesnt cause any discomfort. Used a Swiss Gear bag before but would recommend this one over the ones I have used.

> 24 hourI had been looking around for a small sized backpack that I could use as my day-to-day bag for college when I came across the Covert. It seemed to be what I was after, though there was not quite the level of detail I wanted to confirm that it could actually hold the bare essentials I needed. Seeing as it was in many ways the best, I took the plunge and ordered it several months ago. I will first say what I was hoping someone would mention: Yes, this backpack can hold a decent amount of notebooks and files, as well as a thin laptop (think Macbook air or ultrabook thickness). The pictures do it more justice than I can write here. The photos show the bag as fully loaded as I can, without it bulging awkwardly out. It has four Moleskine Cahier X-Large notebooks, a softcover 400 page textbook (thin pages), a Mead plastic file with around 80 pages of an engineering pad, an iPad mini, standard pens and calculator etc, and a Macbook Air. One of the images shows the bag with the aforementioned items, but placed inside a Northface Jester II backpack, to illustrate the massive size difference. It can comfortably hold around 5 thin notebooks as a maximum, with a Macbook Air in the sleeve. For another reference, without a laptop, I managed to fit a three semester calculus book and its softcover solution manual within the pack, which pushed it to its extreme holding capacity. If you are inclined to carry any more than a single textbook, or more than a few notebooks or files, this might not be the best pack, but if most of your work is done on a (thin) laptop, with maybe some files and notebooks for class notes, this is the perfect lightweight backpack. Also, note that the bag is very rectangular, so anything that is not will fit poorly. Sweatshirts, lunch bags, and so on are not really something you can use with this, unless they are the only thing you put in it. This is also a poor fit if youd like to carry mass market paperbacks around (due to the thickness constraint). I have been using it almost daily both for class, and now for an internship, and it has held up without any visible wear. It is apparent that Ogio cheaped out on the zipper pulls, making them out of plastic that would definitely break if you yanked on them, but as long as you are conscious of their fallibility they should hold up. I have not had any issues with them so far. For the select few who can rely more on digital than paper, but still need to takes notes and have some scratch paper, I would highly recommend this backpack.

> 24 hourA very solid backpack, though not too heavy. It has a lot of compartments that at first took getting used to but over time Ive loved having them for organization. I use it when I need to be mobile at work and also have used it for extended trips in Europe.

> 24 hourAmazing product. Came before expected date. Size wise, very spacious. Not a lot of compartments though but I use it for my 17 laptop and its easy to fit all of the accessories that I require for it. Looks nice, feels nice, worth every cent.

> 24 hourI purchased this backpack just as my old faithful Nike bag was wearing out, so I needed one in a pinch. I have to say, I got a great deal on the bag, as it was $20-$30 less than other models I had been looking into. I liked the styling, so it was an easy choice. Once it arrived, I filled it up with some items I normally carry around: My 14 laptop, a leather legal portfolio, and a couple of large hardcover manuals. The fit in the main compartment was pretty perfect. The two mesh pouches were a bit wimpy, but I could still fit my Anker 1000 battery and a phone charger in there. My Kindle Fire went in the zippered tablet pocket with plenty of room to spare, but I really had to work to fit my laptop power cable and my many pens in the bottom compartment. The two side compartments held my water bottle and travel mug snugly. Havent had any slippage issues. But all of this is for naught if I cant carry it well. The straps are very narrow and basic, which is likely due to the price point. They cut into my shoulders a bit, and as a slightly bigger guy, (Im 511, 230 lbs) It situates itself awkwardly on my back. Looks kinda goofy too. Its not so bad that I find myself complaining about it constantly, or needing to get a better bag, but its enough that every time I see those doofy little straps, I get kinda bummed out. But its really nice-looking, durable, well-built, (except for the straps) and affordable. If youre a student or smaller person, you should jump on this.

> 24 hourI was looking for a backpack that doesnt look like Im camping or going to class. This is definitely it! I get compliments all the time. It looks more like a briefcase than a backpack. I have the dark gray and the lining is tomato red so its easy to find things. Holds my portfolio, my purse, my iPad, my journal and my pen case. The side pockets (one expands) hold an umbrella or water bottle. The closure clips are kind of awkward--you cant open and close them quickly, and Ive caught my finger in them so be careful.

> 24 hourLot of compartments/pockets. Comfortable. Easy on the eyes. The water bottle nets on either side work well, but I feel they will wear out quickly, as most do. I wouldnt put keys in them. I do think that for the price, it should have even more pockets/zip compartments inside. Maybe a hidden pocket. Oh well.

> 24 hourGreat college backpack. Perfect size, lightweight but durable, seems sturdy. This is his 2nd ‘Ogio’. 1st one lasted 3yrs (high school) but too big now. The ‘Axle’ has room for 15 or 17inch. computer & iPad…which opens & slips in/out easily w/Velcro or strap to keep secure. Ample padding but not too much. Plenty of space for books/gym clothes & a nice pouch on top for glasses/wallet or AirPods. Plus has normal ‘water bottle’ holders on side. 1st bought ‘Renegade’ & returned (not enough storage, no real water bottle holders, hard to fit computer) but Rock solid, like meant for army. My son preferred the Axel’ for college. Not too bulky.
