Great Bag!
Bag lives up to it's description! It isn't your typical school backpack. It looks professional and will carry our child through their PhD program into their professional career.

Awesome backpack

Excellent Travel Backpack- Suited for Small Builds
Purchased for my husband but when it arrived realized that it’s a small backpack better suited for a 5’8” female frame not a 6’5” male. I kept it for myself and used it to travel with recently. It help my laptop, cords, purse and a water bottle easily. Love how it slips over the handle of my carryon luggage so I didn’t have to carry it on my back. Excellent quality....

After looking at hundreds of variations and price points we chose the Better than Basic Backpack to go with matching a Pro Spinner and duffel bag. It was perfect! The color, size, price and classy looks were a perfect fit. Extremely happy we got...

Love this backpack!
Back and strap padding makes it super comfortable to wear. Lots of room even though it looks like a slim backpack. Love the elastic in the laptop/tablet section to keep the devices off the ground when I set it down. Zips smoothly. Wish the water bottle pockets allowed for wider bottles but it has enough give in the strap part of the pocket to accommodate my larger bottl...

Solid Daily Driver That Gets the Job Done
A few weeks in with this Samsonite backpack, and I’m already confident this was the right choice. Sometimes you can tell quality from day one, and this bag has that reassuring feel that suggests it’ll age well.

Right out of the box, the construction quality is obvious. The zippers are what sold me—they’re hefty, smooth, and in...

Sleek, compact, and sturdy
Purchased as a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it. Wanted something low profile with good zippers and I trust Samsonite zippers since I use luggage from them for all of my own travel.

Solid bag
The bag feels very sleek while also providing enough room for my typical work bag needs. The outside pockets have plenty of room. The only issue I have had is being able to slide things in and out of the biggest pocket easily. Things seem to catch at the extra fabric that hangs over the opening.

Better than expected!
The bag is much more comfortable than expected. The cushion on the back and the support are great. Would recommend to a friend.
