Really good bag with 90% of features I needed
Wins -
Good looks
Spacious. fit my 16 inch Alienware barely
ThinkPad went into another compartment.
Multiple ways to carry
Lots of pockets
Separate shoe compartment
Warranty was exceptional!
Room for improvement
No luggage pass through - really missed this feature
Could come in more colors. Black was boring

Love this backpack and Solo's customer service
Durable, stylish, well thought out backpack. I've had the back-pack for a couple of years and its been amazing. There was a problem with one of the external zips, without hesitation and complex warranty processes, Solo sent me a replacement. Fantastic customer service and great brand.

I'm in love you all-star
This bag is my best friend. I treat it badly but it keeps calling me back! I over stuff, spill stuff on it, check it when I put too much stuff in it to carry on the plane. It is so durable. I don't even know how it does it. I'm so inclined to buy another one just in case this one gives up the ghost.

Nice design but way too small
The quality of the bag is very good and I like the design a lot. But the biggest complaint is that it’s too small for a duffel bag. This is smaller than a typical backpack.

Love this Bag!!
This is the perfect bag for a couple days of vacation. It has so many pockets and even a place for your dirty shoes. Also used it for a carry-on. It holds a lot of snacks. The shoulder straps are great for running through the airport. Love, love, love this bag.

backpack laundry pouch
Expected a duffel to be bigger and sturdier. It's more like a backpack with straps, with less compartments and utility. Guess the bottom is the duffel component to cover clothes and shoes, but it doesn't look sturdy. I think using this duffel component would just being in the way and annoying hitting in the back legs.
Plan to return to laptop backpack. The bottom pouch...

Response from Staples :
Good Morning,
Im sorry to hear you are not happy with the backpack/duffle. Please note there is a zip pouch on the rear of the bag that allows you to store away the backpack strap when using it as a duffle.

Backpack is really good but...
Backpack is really good. Much better and stronger than I thought. But the size is not bigger than I think, just a regular bag. And the delivery took too long. I waited over two weeks.

This Backpack is exactly what I needed! I used to always struggle to put all what I needed for the day in my other bags.
In this one, I can put my pair of sneakers, my sports clothes, my food and water, my books, my laptop and all whats important.
Its a great buy and it is also very light !! :) Thank you SOLO !
