Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Avery ★★★★★

Took this on a weekend trip and it swallowed way more than I expected for how light it feels on my shoulders. The separate laptop compartment is padded enough that I stopped worrying about my machine in a crowded overhead bin.

Thomas ★★★★★

The separate laptop compartment is what sold me, and it fits my 15-inch with room for a charger and notebook. It's surprisingly light even when I've got it fully packed for a day of meetings.

Olivia ★★★★★

The clamshell opening makes packing so much easier than my old top-loader, and it still fits under the seat in front of me. I wasn't sure about the lighter fabric at first but it's held up fine through three trips already.
