    Excellent gear bag. I record audio & video in random locations & have been searching for the perfect bag to hold the essentials to grab & go. I actually bought a few different bags to sort all the microphones, recorder, compact stands, laptop,two headphones, projector, rechargeable battery for everything & after packing them all up, this bag was the only one that fit everything & had compartments that made sense. All one type of gear in a specific pocket means I don't have to empty everything out to find the particular item I need. Returned the other bags and made this my garbage & go bag. It even fit my 62-Inch Camera Monopod when it is shrunk down to smallest size.

    I have had this backpack for a few months now walking to and from school and this backpack has done a great job not only for its space but also for its good weather protection from the rain and all the small pockets that perfect for a myriad of things

    Love this bag, it is quite big and holds lots of stuff with individual pockets designated to certain items. I also like the shoe/extra compartment at the bottom. Was helpful when traveling due to its size and ease of use.

    Used this backpack for 2 weeks traveling across Italy. Held up very well, and holds an insane amount of stuff, while looking good. Minus one star because the laptop pocket can accidentally open causing all your stuff to fall out. This only happens if you leave the both zippers at the top, but still annoying.

    The backpack itself is well constructed and work, but together, there are a lot of pockets for me to place any electronics and other daily use items. There is a shoe compartment that integrates along with the backpack. I really like the charging bank pockets and pass through holes.

    It has a good organization for a modern day backpack. Loving the design. No complaints so far. The inside hardshell compartment for the top small pocket, can stay in the way when trying to load stuff into the main pocket; but not a huge deal. 16” MBP fits with more space left. Can fit a regular sized water bottle easily to the mesh pocket. The insulated pocket is also nice. Shoe pocket is an added bonus!!

    As a marine I proud myself in always being ready and having the right tool for the job. Technology wise this is my go to on the move producer bag. I was able to fit while traveling a - 1)microphone 2)audio interface 3)Akai MiniKeyboard 4) mouse 5)external harddrive and the large 6)17.5in Alienware computer. With more room left for books and other items. There's so many pockets organizing has never been so easy. This bag is currently in first place in my hall of fame of bags that were just meant for man to have. Infront of Triple Aught's Lite bag (tactical)

    I have used this for 3 months. I took it with me on two plane trips and have used at work every single day. Holds my lunch, two waters, my screwdriver kit, a book, 16” laptop, mouse, battery pack, and my tech bag comfortable. No noticable wear on the zippers yet.

    Don’t buy bag unless you like to lose stuff

    One of the worse backpacks I have owned. The design in theory was good but they failed to make a good product. The chest strap broke off within few days of buying the bag. They put the compression straps that should hold the whole bag together on the front side of the laptop pocket so it doesn’t hold the laptop pocket together and if it come open the rest of the bag folds away from the back straps. The zippers have no friction and unzip randomly. I lost my birth certificate and all the other papers in the front of the bag when going to work. It’s scary because I don’t even know what I put in the sleeve with the brith certificate. Between the layout and zippers my laptop has fallen out couple times. Once I just picked the bag up and the laptop pocket came open and everything fell out. Another time I almost lost my laptop while riding my motorcycle one of the times. I learned you have to make sure both zippers are all the way down on one side or the other to keep the laptop flap from opening. But since they’re at the bottom of the bag, I lost some little things that were in the bottom of the pocket when the zippers separated a little. There are more problems but that should be enough to tell you do buy this bag.

    I really liked this backpack. Was impressed with how well thought of the compartments are and the added feature is really nice. However, with that said, i was very disappointed that she seams ripped after a week of use for school. DISAPPOINTED

    This bag is absolutely awesome. It's huge, can handle a lot of items, lots of pickets, very sturdy. I switched from another bag to this one and I love it. Now, it does get heavy, the bag itself is heavy because of it's sturdiness, but I would higher recommend it. I can fit a lot in this bag from batteries to laptop ipad, mics, cameras, speakers, etc.

    I’m quite surprised and pleased with the quality and storage capacity of this backpack. I bought it on a whim when I I was buying a new MacBook Pro recently. It holds an almost ridiculous amount of gear. It easily holds my 16” MacBook Pro, iPad Pro 11”, Apple Mouse, AirPods Max headphones, large multi-port battery pack with jumper cables, multiple back up drives, cables, sunglasses, toothbrush and toothpaste, pens, wallet, keys, and more! It actually carries so much that my only concern is that the shoulder straps may give out at some point. So far, so good though.

    Absolutely love it! I have wanted one for years but I could never talk myself into spending that amount of money. And now that I did I wish I would have done it a long time ago. I carry a 16" laptop, an 13" 2 in 1, an 11" tablet and 16" portable monitor. Not to mention a binder, and other accessories. I would be afraid to have that amount of weight in any other brand. But I have zero issues and I love it. All the space, extra pockets and not to mention a USB to charge my electronics.
