    Each year these pop up and are sold at ridiculously low sale prices. And when it happens. I usually buy at least one of each color. They are great to have and often cost less than some of those totes in the grocery store. Even if I don't NEED another backpack. These are so cost effective and durable to have around for day trips or just when someone needs to carry a few things. I even give them away as gifts for various get togethers. Put a bottle or two of wine/beer/soda in it and some snacks and you have a picnic gift back pack. It might be odd to some. But how many times do you get a cheap basket that you try to regift or toss. Doubt they throw the back back away. It's too nice and most people always need another bag for something. These are above average quality bags and well worth the asking price. When on sale, buy all the colors.

    Good quality from Targus. The bag is smaller than most but feels perfect for me because I don't like big and clumsy bags. It you notice it on use, snatch up as soon as you can. Always can use a spare.

    Same great design as the black version, but the blue color gives it a fresh, clean look. Very comfortable to carry, even when loaded. My laptop and accessories fit easily, and the build quality feels solid. Highly recommend if you want something simple, practical, and stylish.

    This backpack is lightweight but very sturdy. My 15.6” laptop fits perfectly with extra padding for protection. There are plenty of pockets for accessories, and the zippers feel strong. It’s great for daily work, travel, or school, and the price makes it even better.

    Love this bag! It's sturdy and has lots of pockets, but it's not bulky at all. Nice, clean and simple appearance with tons of functionality. My high school junior and I each have one - theyre perfect for students and digital nomads alike.
