I LOVE this backpack. I am a photographer who travels around the country dozens of times throughout the year. So I needed a bag that would be tough enough to handle constant Use, have loads of storage features, & function reliably 100% of the time. especially since i needed it to protect well over $20k in camera and computer gear weather I find myself having to rush through a crowded airport or caught in a downpour while shooting on location. And this bag has exceeded expectations!

I have this backpack. My college son and my husband have it in red. When it came time to buy a gift for a (much loved) student going off to college, we got this same backpack for him. It's well designed and well made, sturdy (the grab handle is reinforced with a cable), and comfortable when wearing loaded. Great for traveling with your computer and/or ipad (lots of pockets and padding where needed), but also useful when you're NOT traveling with your tech gear (it happens).

I bought this to carry my daily realtor work load. It holds my files, notebooks, camera stands, and 17 inch laptop great. It also feels like a heavy duty back pack and really doesnt feel heavy even when loaded full.

Wenger backpack was recommended by the sales person. I am very happy with it. Durable material and it is very roomy. I can put in my 17 inch laptop with plenty of room for textbooks and other items. I would recommend it to any student. Backpack is also very comfortable on my back. Also has a usb port. It is a little expensive but worth it for its durability and protection

If it wears like my Swiss Gear laptop case, it will really be perfect. Very flexible in terms of the number of compartments, size, etc. Does everything the company claims it will (including standing up without needing to be leaned against a wall). In my opinion, when I bought it this was the best backpack type case on the market, particularly in terms of value for money. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who needs a LARGE case for their large notebook.

Our organization purchased 4 of these backpacks as scholarship awards for recent high school graduates who will attending college and are enrolled in a STEM curriculum. The criteria for our purchase was that the backpack must be durable and provide a high level of protection for the laptops that were also given to our scholarship recipients. This backpack is not only durable and lightweight, it is the only backpack that provides padding in the bottom, which provides additional protection if the backpack is dropped.

The Swiss Gear 17" laptop backpack is a great way to carry your computer, accessories, and necessary school or business materials. The padding & suspension for the computer compartment is more than sufficient to protect your computer from most short drops, knocks & jostling. There are numerous zippered compartments for cables & accessories, supplies, and plenty of room for books and files. It can be carried by hand straps or as a backpack. Although it is a little pricey at $100, the construction is solid and appears more durable than other comparable brands at the same or lower price.

I would recommend this to anyone. Especially the traveler. I took it on my recent plane flight across the country. It was comfortable and fit my 17 inch laptop, 3 tablets, my cell phone ,papsrwork, 4 sets of earphones and more. This thing has pockets galore and little
compartments everywhere. It fit my whole families tech gear of 6 with room to spare. Definitely worth the money. Stylish and we'll made. Comes with adjustable straps and nicely padded straps and padded back support.

I brought my laptop in the store because I wasn't sure how they measure the size of the travel bag to the laptop. An associate of the store helped me pick this one out and I loved it on my trip. It had room for EVERYTHING I had wanted to bring with me. My Dell laptop, my new Apple iPad, my PS Vita, my MO drive and the cords for everyone of those items, with room left over!!! It even had a small pocket for my sd card case for easy reach. Just worth it alone.

This is actually my second Ibex, the first one having been retired after many years of hard use. This one is even better than its predecessor. Light enough for everyday use, but voluminous enough for a weekend trip. Straps are very comfortable and secure. Almost flawless - the only change I would ask for is to put a strap across the back to use to slip over the extending handle of a carry-on suitcase. Then it would be perfect. 5 stars already nonetheless.

Spacious; lots of pckets; well sewn seams; My laptop feels well protected...
Conns: Pockets have deep crevices in which I loose small parts all the time. Not all that bad when you remember where to look...

I got this for my Nikon D7000 camera, lenses, flash etc. Also to carry a Sony cam. I took it on vacation and it worked great. It is built tough and well designed. Lots of storage pockets and zip compartments.
I would say, it is great for hiking, photographers, and just to transport stuff back and forth from work. When I am not using it as a large storage camera bag, I use it for carrying things back and forth from work. I highly recommend.

This bag has room for a large, wide-screen laptop, and a whole lot more. It's got a LOT of compartments! The only drawback is that there are so many compartments, I sometimes can't find something in the bag right away because I forgot what compartment I put it in. But really, you can put a LOT of stuff in it. The shoulder straps have really good padding, so that when you do put a LOT of stuff in the bag, it doesn't cut off the circulation to your arms. And the color is nice. I had this bag at a previous job, and I purchased it again for my new job!

I recommend this product. I spent more than I wanted but after purchasing and using it I was very very satisfied with the value. There was nothing comparable available. I have traveled with it carrying a laptop, a personal cell phone, a work cell phone, a GPS for my rental car, my Verizon jetpack, and still had room and compartments for miscellaneous chargers and other accessories. I spent more than I wanted, initially, but got every penny of the value in what I spent and am satisfied with the quality and utility of my purchase. Good product.
