> 3 dayThis bag was my second choice. I liked the look of another Tumi backpack better but found it a little too small for my work laptop, so I got this one instead. So far, so good. Pros: - Mink color with gold hardware is beautiful, less boring than black but a great-looking neutral, very professional. This is a color that can look a little strange online, but in person, its really nice. - Dedicated laptop compartment, my work computer is an HP Elitebook (about 14) and it fits comfortably. - Padded shoulder straps. Some of the professional backpacks only have leather straps, but these are nicely padded. - Lots of cubbies and pockets for different items. Other than a laptop, I carry a tablet, compact umbrella, wallet/purse and lunch, and they all fit in this bag. The side pockets are big enough to hold water bottles without being the mesh material you find on camping backpacks. - For me, not being leather is a plus, the nice nylon is better. I walk to public transportation in hot weather, and this bag is replacing a high-quality leather bag that struggled in the heat with color running and a rubbery sealer on the edges of the leather melting. Not being leather also means it weighs less, and for a bag that has a leather version available too, costs less. Speaking of cost... Cons: - Cost. I say you get $1 of value every time you use/wear something, so if I carry this bag every work day starting Oct 2018, I need to keep using it through March 2020 to be worth the price. I probably will use it that long, so it will probably work out, but its awfully expensive for a backpack. Overall this is a really nice backpack and I highly recommend it.

> 3 dayI wanted to buy a grown-up, sophisticated looking backpack for my first trip to Europe. This fit the bill in every single way. Extremely light weight with many pockets for all of my things. Loved the gold hardware touches, as it gave it a very stylish look.

Greater than one weekOh the pockets and compartments!!! The gold hardware, the supple leather accents. The slot to put on your rolling suitcase--the Im a boss look without all the tacky logos. Its nylon but it looks like silk, and the black will probably wipe clean from mishaps or spills with no staining.

17-11-2024I travel between locations during my workday and needed a bag that looks professional and is easy on my bad neck. Ive had a lot of bags over the years and probably should have ordered this bag a year ago, but was put off by the price. The design is well thought out and has enough pockets/compartments to be useful without being confusing. I love the location of the laptop pocket, as it keeps the weight of my computer close to my body. The light grey interior is great for visualizing the contents-I can actually find things down in the bottom of the bag. My FAVORITE feature on this bag is the hidden cell phone pocket-its easy to get my phone in and out, even when the bag is on my back. Its nice to have a secure place for it that doesnt require me to unzip anything. The front lower pocket has enough room for my cord and a small bag I carry that has a portable mouse and earpiece. The upper pocket is perfect for pens. The fabric is nice looking, but I can tell its going to hold up to rain and stains, although Ive only had it about a month. My only negative for the bag is the length of the straps. I have them shortened as far as they can go and theyre perfect when I have both straps on my back, but I often carry a backpack over one shoulder and I like to shorten the strap a little further....also, Im 5 foot 8 and I would think that someone much shorter might find the straps too long.

> 3 dayThis is my third bag in a couple of years and I’ve definitely found the one. Perfect size, seems quite durable, all the right pockets in all the right places, and it’s beautiful. I’m a daily, public transpo commuter, and this is perfect for all of my day to day stuff, including extra shoes, my lunch and my 4 cans of LaCroix! Love it!

> 3 dayThe bag was beautiful, I loved the fabric. I loved the way the straps don’t leave any extra hanging. But when I’m out traveling ( even on an everyday basis) I have a thermos with me. I don’t like the water bottle pocket it would be better to just slide the thermos into a secure deep pocket. The bottle kept scraping on the zipper. I wish both side pockets were deeper and without zippers. I did end up returning the bag because the irritation of the side zippers really annoyed me.
