    Very nice for its size, but just a bit too small. I wanted to downsize in order to be able to stow at my feet on airplanes. My old case made for cramped foot room on the smaller short hop aircraft. It's lightweight, attractive & well made of good quality fabric. It's a keeper!

    This is a great, versatile bag. Big enough for a large laptop and a Kindle/tablet plus some either items without feeling too crammed. The two side pockets work great for miscellaneous items, chargers, pens keys, etc. If you wish, there are loops in various positions where you can clip a few harbingers. Another nice feature is that you can switch carrying modes. There's an included shoulder strap and concealed backpack straps. The material is also a plus. Feels soft, but you can tell it's durable.

    The quality of this bag is very good. Space for just about everything you could need. I carry my 15 inch work laptop with 15 inch portable screen and my Surface Pro 5 in the bag just fine. In the smaller pockets I carry various cards, portable charger, Bluetooth Over the ear headphones and a pair of pens as well. Sure it makes it a little heavy, but being able to switch from Messenger carry to back pack makes it very convenient. Before I bought this, I watched a few review videos on YouTube just to be sure it was going to be big enough to hold everything I need; and it was.

    I liked this bag so much that I bought a second one for my son so he can safely take his laptop to college and back. It's secure, has good padding in all the right places, includes multiple slotted locations inside for organizing your laptop, tablet, phone, notebooks, etc... with a few pockets on the front for smaller gear (mouse, power adapter, usb cables, etc...). I also really like that you can convert it back and forth from a backpack to a messenger bag. I usually have mine set up as the backpack, but when I want it in the other mode I just have to disconnect two clips, push the straps into the included zipper pocket that holds them securely, and clip on the shoulder strap. Super simple. I've done it while walking down the street when I was late for my next engagement.

    I bought this online, sight unseen, and I'm absolutely beyond satisfied. It's very roomy, yet still compact and not bulky. It can be carried by the shoulder strap or back pack handles (which get tucked away nicely when not in use. Padding and protection where needed, constructed of high quality material.

    I have had this bag for several years. Used many times on plane for under seat storage. Still in perfect condition. Carrying options are so useful. Perfect areas for storing everthing i need. Love the small one in the front for passport and tickets. I dont need another one but love it so much i want to get another, just in case.

    I needed a personal item size bag for traveling in a flight where I can keep all my important documents, charger cords, laptop etc. This is an excellent product. It is very light and doesn't feel flimsy at all. You can keep both small tablets (11') or laptops (15') in it. There is plenty of space and it easily goes underneath the seat in a flight. This is useful where they charge a fee for carry-on overhead cabin luggage. It has two different types of straps - shoulder and backpack style. All straps neatly stow away in a compartment at the back of the bag. So, it becomes a briefcase.

    I usually carry my laptop and iPad in a backpack with some other things, including a Bose wireless speaker. I wanted a bag to carry my laptop and iPad and maybe some business papers that was lighter and more portable. This bag works perfectly. If I want the backpack option the shoulder straps come out of hiding and to use it a a brief bag the straps tuck in the back hidden from view. I was at a continuing education seminar and convention this past weekend for my profession and I used this bag all weekend. It isn't bulky and holds all the things I used neatly and comfortably.

    Where has this been for the last ten years or so?! I love this carrier. It's versatile and stylish without being too much all at once. The space inside is sufficient for a student or business person. I love that I can use it to store all of my documents, be it for class, work, or when I'm traveling. It is also big enough for an overnight bag without having to check! Yes, don't think about it! Where is John Cena when you need him for a promo? Give me the bag? No, Get the bag! For those wondering, I tested this bag out for the weight distrubution , sturdyness, and, for those of you worried about it, fashion. I placed two textbooks-about 5 lbs each, into this satchel and carried it across campus. Not only did I get in half of my steps for the day, I also had no issues with my back or legs with the weight of the books and carrying it. The backpack mode gave me the most stability with that weight, followed bu the hand-carry, and lastly the over-the-shoulder. I had a small work excursion that required an overnight trip by flight. I was able to pack my clothes for the night stay, business, and flight home. I rolled everything. In addition, I had 6 file folders that were carrying about 50-60 pages each, my iPad, charger, comb, brush, and chapstick, and this bag was still full, but not stuffed. I was able to carry it on with me with no problems.

    Love this bag. Carries my laptop, a tablet, plus all accessories easily. 2nd zipped pouch on front ideal for 3 soda cans. Transforms into a briefcase, backpack, or shoulder bag, I am a big guy so the backpack feature doesn't really work for me as the straps aren't adjustable enough, but I sling one of the backpack straps over one shoulder and it works fine for me.

    This was purchased as a gift and he loved it. Every strap is sturdy and the pockets are very functional. A 15.6in Envy fits inside with plenty of room to spare. After three months of daily use back and forth to work, there are still no signs of wear. This is perfect for someone that takes their laptop home from work on a daily basis. Keeps everything together and protected.

    Love this bag! The neutral grey color is great. The pockets for a laptop, tablet, folders, pens/pencils, wallet, my make-up bag, etc are even better. Really helps keep me organized. The versatility of the straps and how you can carry is what I love the most! I immediately received compliments once I started carrying it the different ways. Will make traveling with my laptop a lot easier too. The only downside is that I sometimes struggle unhooking the strap when changeing the way I carry it (crossbody vs backpack). Other than that, best bag ever!

    I think it’s worth the price, at least comparing it to my previous bag. It feels really padded and lightweight. Plus lots of pockets. And very versatile in the ways to hold the bag which is what I was looking for. Over the shoulder, hand carry, or even as a backpack and it’s very comfy

    I carry a gaming laptop and I use a controller and headset. It fits all of it inside which is all that I could ask for. I love that its not only a hand bag but also a backpack. This makes traveling with it more comfortable. Its also small enough to trvel with so even going on the plane is problem.

    This bag held everything, protected items in other sections from spills (hand sanitizer leak), and was the best travel laptop bag ever!! I went to France and used it as a backpack so that my solar charger could get juiced. It was easily manuevered in the airport and fit well as a carry on. The material is durable and still looks brand new.

    I was looking for a lightweight, flexible laptop bag that had a lot of pockets to carry accessories and other items, and that was a reasonable cost. This bag meets my needs in almost every way. It is lightweight and it is very roomy. There are two internal pockets for a computer and files, as well as internal and external pockets for accessories. The material that this bag is made from is fairly lightweight so I don't know how well this would stand up to heavy travel use. Also, the shoulder strap does not stay on my shoulder. I will add some kind of pad to keep it from slipping off.

    Ordered this item online and received in time as promised. It is very nice and functional - you can convert it from a portfolio briefcase to a backpack and still get a pretty looking. It is well made and compact, has lots of room, perfectly to carry a 15.6 inch laptop. Very pleased with this purchase, got it at an unbeatable price.
