Osprey Transporter Zip Top Laptop Backpack

Osprey provides with the Transporter backpack a rugged design thats best to keep rain from the inside. While most backpacks will soak up water and eventually allow it to penetrate the shell, the Osperey Transporter is covered in a TPV (Thermoplastic Vulcanate) and essentially rain proof. That has two results, for one it does seal water out, but it also feels a bit cheaper than the $140 price tage suggests. You get used to it though and the Osprey logo is as usual understated on the fabric. The inside is one large compartment, suitable for a short weekend trip. There is also 2 layers of pockets with a padded laptop sleeve that holds up to 15 computer. (My 14 Yoga feels quite comfortable.) There is another pocket that can hold an iPad or similar and two smaller pockets made of mesh for small objects. The outide appears smooth and the zippers have rugged rings. Thats necessary as the zippers are a bit tight and hard to open or close, at least initially. There are two hidden pockets, where the one for the waterbottle is a bit curious as that may not need protection from the elements or preying eyes, but then again, it does look cleaner that way. The other pocket is in the lid and good to hold a wallet or something like that. Both are protected with the TPV covered fabric, which is surprisingly void of any plastic smell. The straps are comfortable and the back is padded to protect the laptop and your back. Overall, the Osprey is a soli offer for those who need a bit more protection when out an about. Just like SUVs, however, youre most likely not exposing it to more than a drizzle or something like that. For a rugged hike or daily commute, the Transporter should be a good choice. Of course the large main compartment main not suit every need and that depends on your use if thats a good thing to have or if a different model might be better

Yes this pack is expensive, but in my opinion, it is worth the 100+ dollar price point and here is why. First and foremost, the materials, from the waterproof fabrics, the super-padded shoulder straps, and the zippers are the highest quality I have used in a pack. Second, the design is flawless, the top flap covers over the zipper to the main compartment as well as the small top zipper compartment making it virtually impossible for water to leak into the compartments. Third, and most important, is the Osprey warranty; they will repair any damage or defect at any time that you own the product free of charge. I am very happy with the money I have spent on this bag and recently took it on a small hike, not the intended use but worked perfectly. There is no negative things to say aside from the heavy price tag. This bag would be perfect for the daily bike commuter or person on public transportation.

Does it all! I had been looking for the perfect bag, this was it! Perfect amount of storage, waterproof, just enough compartments. I was reluctant on the internal water bottle holder, but love it! It works great for work, traveling, and while on my bike. I wouldnt change a thing.

El producto es bueno, esta dentro de lo que se esperaba que cumpla, sin embargo la marca puede mejorar las características agregándole funciones, bolsillos, hace 4 años compre otro modelo de la marca y tiene mas compartimentos que ayudan a distribuir y organizar el almacenamiento. En conclusión le falta mas bolsillos.

Sturdy laptop sleeve. Bag has many hidden pockets with decent dimensions for smaller equipment and outside Side pocket can ft Tall water bottle. This bag also protects my tech from moister if raining.

Only has one side pocket for a large water bottle, even though the comparison description says inset dual water bottle pocket. The front external pocket can fit a decent tumbler however. Also, have not had issues with the bag collapsing weirdly, but that might be because I usually have a bottle in the side pocket. Otherwise the pack is great.

Yes! I have been searching for a larger pack for traveling and at the same time for college. This is it! I love the fit and comfort, color and materials, the size, the shape, and the pockets. There are zero cons right now. PROS: The materials are fantastic. At first, I wasnt crazy about the texture, but now I love it. I thought it would scratch, but it does not. After a couple months, it still looks brand new. The zippers are smooth and sturdy. You can pull them and zip them up and they never get caught. The size is perfect for me. I can fit massive amounts of textbooks, plus my iPad, and my 15 laptop and there cords, and still have room for a water bottle or more books. You could fill this with more than you could need. I also traveled once with it. A weekend trip. Everything fit in HALF this bag. Including my laptop, iPad, toiletries, clothes, a three-ring binder, and reading. The pockets were a huge sell for me. I love the top external pocket for quick access to my passport, wallet, and documents. Yet, in a discreet location, far away from pickpockets. I love the zipper water bottle pocket. It holds a full-size Nalgene. The computer/ipad pockets are perfect, and off the bottom so the computer doesnt hit the ground like my other packs. I also wanted a top load, because I was getting sick of my backpack splitting open and the sides just flopping apart every time I needed something. I love that it sits upright when I place it on the floor; at school, I can set it next to my chair without having to prop it up, and at the airport, I can just set it in front of my feet. By the way, its also very comfortable to wear. I have to give it a 5-star rating. Its the best pack Ive owned and Ive owned a lot, including a $350 pack. And with Ospreys warranty, Ill never worry if a strap or zipper breaks. Ill try and update this in 6months to a year after Ive traveled more with it.

I didnt expect anything less from Osprey, but I was impressed with the quality of this backpack. The material is this tough, leather appearing, fabric. Its very water resistant (but not water proof). The zippers are solid. The zipper pulls are large rings that are just lovely in operation. The laptop sleeve is padded, and best of all, stitched in such a way that its not at the bottom of the bag, or the sides, or the top. Your laptop will be very well protected. Theres a second padded sleeve for a kindle or a tablet. Then, its a cavernous pack. Just simply huge. In fact, maybe a little too big if you stuff it full and have to put it under an airplane seat. However, itll carry all the gear this road warrior uses on trips and then has a bunch of room left over. There are a couple of outer pockets and an organizer in the main pocket for storing doodads, pens, and stuff. The straps are good. The padding on the back is excellent. There is literally nothing bad I can say about this laptop backpack.

First, I saw the pack here but bought it direct from Osprey.com on a sale. They marked down the teal/blue one for some reason. Its quite nice though and Im glad I got it for about half of what the other colors were. Love the top opening and inside organization along with laptop sleeve. The zippers and zipper pulls all work very nicely, too. There are several outside pockets for external organization as well so you really have space to put just about anything you carry. Its 30L size but it looks and feels like a daily bag of around 26L to me. Somehow, it holds tons of things though so I do believe that the 30 number is correct. Its probably those outstanding exterior pockets because they are all good size. They are also fairly well concealed so the pack has a streamlined look to it. Its fantastic as a pool bag, by the way. I use it 5x/week this way. The material is tough and water resistant, the zippers all work beautifully, and it has a place for all my little EDC things as well as my swim toys for working out. A+ product and the best pool bag Ive ever had. It absolutely crushes my Speedo and Tyr bags and Ive given them away now. What does that tell you?

Osprey makes great bags, and this one was no less than expected. It is a good size, with a U shape opening which I personally love. The inside can fit quite a lot, plus a 15 laptop, with plenty of other pockets. The straps are very comfortable on here and the material is nice. It is water resistant,not water proof.
