This is my 2nd purchase of this backpack. The 1st one lasted 5years of heavy everyday use for work and travel. My go to bag for travel. Actually had to buy my wife one as well she liked mine so much. Quality made and endless room for all your stuff. I can do a three travel with just this backpack. Reason for buying a new one was my five year old one finally started to wear out and got a hole in the bottom. Use that one for kayaking now.

Used this to backpack through Europe. It is a strong, sturdy pack with lots of pockets and storage. VERY comfortable to wear and quite durable. It's a bit pricey but you get what you pay for and this is rugged and will last a long time. Very happy with my purchase.

This is a well made backpack with lots of small pockets for organized storage. I like the loop on the back to allow you to slide over a carry-on luggage extended handle.

SwissGear seems to make a lot of good gear in my past experience. This backpack is awesome, and Best Buy even price matched it for me which saved me more money and that was excellent.
It's got like, 4 main compartments, each one smaller than the other. The material on the inside is soft and in the largest part, it has a slot for where you can put your laptop in separately from everything else which is great. The other main compartments have their own slots and extra sleeves for you put stuff in all over.
Then there's just a ton of other pockets and sleeves all over the backpack which is awesome, such as the small pocket at the top of the laptop where I can store stuff I want easy access to like my phone and whatnot. Then there's 2 handles up top, one that you usually see on most backpacks and then another a bit closer to the front of the backpack that has a hard wiring through it of sorts that makes it really sturdy and easy to grip onto.

This backpack has plenty of room for my 15.6 laptop computer. It also has lots of pockets for storage. I have had a smaller model of this Swiss Gear for 15 years and it has held up even through international travel! Highly recommended!

As a military aviator I need a bag that is very durable, rugged, roomy, and keeps my laptop well protected. After trying several bags I have been extremely satisfied with this Swiss Gear bag. I have a large Sony Vaio laptop that fits comfortably in the laptop compartment and is well protected with a padded area and secured with a strong velcro strap. The bag has a reinforced carry handle as well as wide comfortable shoulder straps. It's easy to keep items organized with several zippered compartments and has two external bottle holder pockets. I only have a couple of minor dislikes for the bag. There are small zippered side pockets on each side above the bottle holder pockets. If you have anything in these pockets, which are odd sized, it makes it tough to put a bottle in the bottle pocket. Also, a small chest strap would be an excellent addition to the shoulder straps, especially for those times when the bag is packed full. Other than that this is a great bag and I have been very pleased with it.

The SwissGear IBEX laptop bag is a comfortable bag. There are lots of pockets and compartments to store a variety of things. I have found a place for most everything, definitely all my every day carry items. It will hold my 15” MacBook Pro, 12.9” iPad Pro, a lunch bag and 40oz hydro flask. It holds more chargers and cables than I will ever need, but are there for the “just in case” moments we all encounter.
Even carrying all of that, the bag is still comfortable to wear. The shoulder straps are wide enough and have comfort stretch at the top to keep comfortable. I commute on light rail and often will walk a mile or more to get to a station or stop. The back is comfortable to wear during those times. There is plenty of backpadding that fits in the small of my back to add to the comfort.

After comparing several backpacks, this was the one that stood out from the others. Good price, excellent padding and protection for a laptop, and still with plenty of room for textbooks and notebooks. Sturdy, rugged materials also offer protection from weather.

This thing is super durable. It has an extremely durable top handle that won't ever break with enough pockets to fit my laptop, computer cooling pad, mouse pad with a book to put it on, headphones and mouse, power cord and it has some room left over. It even has a special pocket for your laptop that pads it. I am extremely happy with this purchase.

Replacement for another SwissGear backpack

I got this as a replacement for another swiss gear backpack that had the large pocket zipper give out. I don't even remember how old it was but I know it gave me years of service so it justified the $80 price which is steep. So I'm hoping to get a lot of years and mileage out of this one also.
