great design
Separate compartment for laptop, very easy to store and remove it from backpack. Very good looking, the black one looks great even for work/meetings. Lots of compartments to sort out small and important items. Lightweight compare to similar size. Note the size is 20" long instead of 16" in all catalogues.

Solidly built, good looking day pack.
This pack is a good option for a light commuter day pack. It has a nice, securely padded and zipped off pouch for flat valuable electronics or laptops. It could also be used to keep paper folders and magazines from getting rumpled. A large main compartment stores the rest of your gear. There are a few organizer pockets in this area. A small zippered pocket on the back , also with a few organizer pockets and key ring, completes the storage. Comfortable and fairly light weight day carrier.
