    Great General Bag

    This bag has everything I look for in a bag, such as having enough pockets, deep pockets, handle, backpack strap and shoulder strap, wide enough for 14” laptop, and enough space for papers/folders/notebook. The main compartment could have a bit more padding to protect the laptop on the bottom, but it’s not something that deterred me from purchasing it. I’ve also gotten some inquiries on where to purchase it and compliments that it looks real nice.

    Need a backpack? Need a laptop messenger style bag? This one does both. The backpack straps are stored in a back pocket out of site when you aren't​ using them. The two front pockets have quite a bit of space for accessories, headphones, and so on. Very nice padding on the inside. Two main pockets for storage with a small tablet pocket as well. I can easily carry my Lenovo Thinkpad laptop from work and my Surface pro, along with their cords, a pair of Bluetooth​ headphones, and a bunch of cords with room to spare. Straps are very sturdy, and have held up well with frequent use. This a solid buy!

    Purchased this item for my husband as his "travel office". He loves it! The carrier has sufficient room for all of his office needs on the go. It is sturdy an easy to carry. Office necessities are easily accessible while he carries it on his shoulder. The strap is wide enough that it does not dig into his shoulder but rest comfortably in place as he carries it.

    I took a chance on this bag and bought it mainly for the clot haha but I am very happy with it as it has a lot of room and it keeps your laptop separate from everything else which is always a plus.. Also I love the fact it can be a briefcase or a regular backpack .. overall I am happy and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a sweet bag

    This case has lots of features....you can carry it like a briefcase or wear it like a backpack making traveling with it much easier. It's stylish, stays clean, has lots of zippers and made well. All the seams are reinforced and the separate compartments inside, (with cushioned attached inserts to separate them) and out provide room for a tablet, books, magazines, a zip pocket for the cords and another for miscellaneous things. It also has places to put pens inside with other small pockets allowing for easy finding of whatever you may want grab.

    We received new laptops at work with new laptop bags recently, and that is where the trouble started. The laptop bag squeaked and wasn’t as roomy as my previous bag. I ended up buying this bag and am glad I did. Changing between backpack and briefcase is as easy as using a zipper. My laptop, charging cable, mPow 071 headset, paperwork and other miscellaneous items fit perfectly. I bought these through a Deal of the Day and my wife has asked me to get her one the next time it is on sale.

    Not much to say about this product except for a couple things: Pros 1. Modern Styling=great looks 2. love the versatility of the backpack/briefcase ability 3. very affordable 4. sturdy design Cons: 1. If you have a slim laptop, such as the HP Envy x360, or similar, the Velcro retaining strap is never going to get you a very secure hold on your laptop. 2. Padding is decent, but I still would not want to drop the bag with laptop inside. 3. Got caught in some heavy rain for a very short amount of time from car to hotel, and the outside of the bag was quite saturated, although the moisture did not reach the inside. 4. Storage space is slightly minimal, BUT, as non-bulky as the bag is, it's acceptable for majority of stuff you'll need. Overall, I'd recommend it to someone that is looking for a sleek, non-bulky, modern bag that can be used as either a briefcase design or backpack!

    The Bag that Could

    This bag has served me well for 2 years. It has traveled 4 days a week to the office with seven out of state work trips. It has endured the hardships I've put it through, stuffing as much equipment as I could to reduce my trips. After 2 years, one strap has started to rip off, showing its white flag in defeat. But I cannot blame it. I am grateful to its service and will be retiring it with honor. My next bag is another of these and I works l wouldn't have it any other way.

    Best laptop bag I've ever had, has enough pockets for all my accessories plus my laptop! I was pleasantly surprised that my razer headset, mouse, gaming controller, portable hard drive, large razer mouse pad, and my razer laptop (15in.) All fit without making it look over packed! The icing on the cake is that it can be worn as a backpack, messenger bag, or carried like a briefcase (plus there's a storage pocket for all the included straps).

    Just What I Was Looking For

    Simplicity and versatility. I hate bags that have too many pockets and slots. This one has just the right amount. Main compartment with padded sleeves for both laptop and tablet, and enough room for a couple books or thin binders. Two outer compartments: one small with a secondary pocket, and the other larger with a few slots for cards and pens. The bag is designed so it can be carried as a briefcase, messenger, or backpack; though I prefer using the bag as a sling pack by attaching the messenger strap crosswise. While its primary uses are personal, the design is nice enough that I have no issues using it for work when I need to. Thus far, the bag has proven very sturdy, carrying as much as forty pounds without breaking (though this was only for the few minutes between the house and the car and then another short walk from the car to the office). I can see where the price might be an issue for some people. There are other bags with more capacity, or organization, or durability, or more pleasing aesthetics. I just happen to find this bag has the right amounts of all those things for my needs, so I had no issues with dishing out $50 for it.
