    The bag I purchased is comfortable and snug when I need it to be. The back cusions provide comfort and the extra space is a must in my life which I love about it. Overall Pretty great

    Looks sleek and for light loads. But poor design and quality. I have used it lightly but the straps break after chafing with the metal hooks. Need a new bag now.

    This bag is the best bag I have ever used. I carry a lot of tech product day to day for work. It gives me just enough room that fits my needs and also 2 water bottle is a plus plus. I need I for water and 1 for coffee. They pockets are deep and secure. The bag looks so good. All my pens are organized. The best thing is the bag distributes the weight properly and dont know why but it feels much more comfortable compare to my previous eBags backpack.

    Review: I recently purchased the Thule Contract 15.6 backpack in Black, and I have been thoroughly impressed with its design, durability, and functionality. Thule has once again delivered a product that exceeds expectations and caters to the needs of modern professionals. The first thing that caught my attention was the sleek and elegant design of this backpack. The all-black color gives it a professional and sophisticated look, making it suitable for both work and travel. The clean lines and minimalistic branding add to its overall appeal. When it comes to storage capacity, the Thule Contract 15.6 backpack does not disappoint. The main compartment comfortably accommodates a 15.6-inch laptop, providing ample protection with its dedicated padded sleeve. Additional compartments and pockets allow for organized storage of documents, notebooks, pens, and other essentials. The inclusion of a quick-access front pocket is a convenient feature for keeping frequently used items easily within reach. Durability is a key aspect of any backpack, and the Thule Contract 15.6 delivers on this front. The high-quality materials used in its construction, such as water-resistant fabric and robust zippers, ensure that the backpack can withstand daily wear and tear. The reinforced bottom adds an extra layer of protection, making it suitable for various environments and conditions. Comfort is also a priority with this backpack. The padded back panel and shoulder straps provide excellent support, even when carrying a heavy load. The adjustable sternum strap helps distribute weight evenly, reducing strain on the shoulders and back. Additionally, the airflow channels on the back panel help to keep you cool during extended use. One feature that sets the Thule Contract 15.6 apart is its smart organization system. The multiple interior pockets, including a dedicated tablet pocket, make it easy to keep all your belongings in order. The pass-through panel allows you to conveniently attach the backpack to your luggage, making it an excellent choice for travelers. Overall, the Thule Contract 15.6 backpack is a perfect blend of style and functionality. Its sleek design, ample storage capacity, durability, and thoughtful features make it an exceptional choice for professionals on the go. Whether you're heading to the office, traveling, or commuting, this backpack will undoubtedly meet your needs and exceed your expectations. Thule has once again delivered a top-notch product that I highly recommend.

    Bought this backpack for traveling and work puposes to carry my laptop and other components. The quality of the backpack is very well made and kept my belongings protected. Very lightweight too. The pockets on the side for the water bottles worked great too. Was able to carry a 40oz thermoflask bottle. Definitely recommend this backpack for a traveler.

    My fav laptop backpack that I own. Great set of pockets, great build quality - usual with Thule and decent amount of space. Its a good office and travel bag that can carry devices, a jacket, water bottle, essentials etc. If you are looking for an overnighter or a weekend travel, this might not be the right capacity. One major negative is that this bag never sits straight, always slouches and tips over. Its the design, its kinda C shaped arching forward and never stays like most bags when kept on the floor or on a table. Didnt come with a biner as some pics show.

    Great laptop backpack! My laptop is 17” and it fits. Light weight and comfortable. Has all the usual padding to protect your laptop and a hard shell pocket to protect your glasses or phone. Two pockets for bottles or cans and a zippered pocket for cords, chargers, etc. I am happy with my purchase.

    What you see is what you get. If only it were slightly bigger i would be perfect. I use this for work and its does its job. I really like the strap in the back I use to mount it to a motorcycle.

    Overall, I love it, though I have some minor issues. I have a similar Swiss backpack with the cool look and functions, except that the Swiss is too bulky for my liking, so I use it primarily for weekend trips. I prefer my Thule backpack for daily use: work, library, coffee shop, etc. Cool look. Great quality. Functional. The sleek, compactness of it is what's appealing for daily use. Big side pockets are convenient for bottles, snacks. The crushproof pocket is perfect for my glasses, phone, pillbox, pens. What I wish could be improved are the two buckles--while cool looking, they frequently come undone from the big front pocket. I often wonder what these are even for, seemingly lacking function. If they were locking pins or snaps, perhaps that could improve it, dunno. The center ring is definitely convenient to snap my keys to. Overall, though, I still love it.

    Amazing backpack. This thing has storage slots galore and just feels well made. The storage is amazing. There is a sleeve for 2 laptops, my iPad, my airpod Max's, the power cord, 2 java monsters and then there is still more storage space left.

    I purchased a new laptop and decided that a new backback was needed. After doing my research, I decided to try Thule. My main focus was on quality and comfort. This Thule has exceeded expectations in a big way. It feels great on my back. The price was a little higher that I intended but I definitely notice the difference from my previous backback. I was able to get a % off of the regular price because I'm a my Best Buy Plus member. In all, the comfort and quality seem to justify the price. I'm happy about this purchase.
