The North Face Women's Jester

The North Face Jester Backpack - Women's - premium purple, one sizeThis backpack is very comfortable and holds quite a bit of stuff. It is very useful if you are a student.

This backpack can fit my huge dell laptop (it's about 14 inches long with a number key pad) along with a couple books. I got the premium purple and love it.

Smaller than expected but it does the Job. Not many compartments like other backpacks. Great bag for high school students!

KF Baby Diaper Bag Insert Organizer - 12 x 6.4 x 8 inch, Black

KF Baby Diaper Bag Insert Organizer - 12 x 6.4 x 8 inch, Blacki bought the large longchamp bag to be my diaper bag, this organizer fits perfectly in there. it is also very light so it does not add additional weight all the baby stuff i have to carry.

the compartments are very well designed and the sizes fit all of the stuff i have to bring along.

I returned it. I found out that the insert will fit larger bags good, but might stick out from open medium size ones. I didn't like that the whole insert is all black, so it was hard to find small objects. Also the pockets are too deep.

I went with SODIALHandbag Pouch Bag in Bag Organiser Insert Organizer Tidy Travel Cosmetic Pocket and can not be happier (sturdy, lightweight, several colors to choose from, easy to wipe, can extend to be bigger, several sizes pockets).

Mobile Edge TPS Backpack 16-Inch PC/17-Inch MacBook Pro

Mobile Edge TPS Backpack 16-Inch PC/17-Inch MacBook ProThat's right, I liked this laptop backpack/case so much that when the first one was stolen last month, I bought an identical replacement. I'm a 66-year old woman who went back to grad school last year and realized that I needed something other than the canvas bookbag we used "back in the day." For one thing, we didn't have laptops forty-five years ago and nobody used a backpack except for camping & hiking. So not only was I looking for something functional, but also something "like the other kids had." But my tastes have changed a little, too, over the years, and I wanted something unique, sophisticated, comfortable. I searched the Internet long & hard before settling on this case (the act of shopping is recreational for me).

This model had everything I wanted: a few pockets for miscellaneous stuff, a dedicated one for discs, good padding in the main compartment, space for a couple of books, too (so good design). And, it was very good-looking: thinner profile than standard backpacks (doesn't knock over people when you squeeze by -or look clunky); made of charcoal herringbone fabric with pink pin-stripes, trimmed with black patent (tasteful, sophisticated, dirt won't show), really comfortable straps and balance. An added hand-carry handle on the top so it can be carried like an attache case was a bonus. The water bottle pocket zips out when needed, but doesn't show when it's not in use (sleek). Not heavy.

All this and priced under $75? Obviously, I snapped it up.

This one and its stolen twin have worn extremely well over 2 years of use -in fact, virtually no signs of wear at all. Not only does it work, I can't count how many compliments I've gotten on it. If someone tried to steal this one, I would hunt him down like a dog.

I bought this backpack because I found that carrying my work laptop in a shoulderbag briefcase was causing me huge shoulder problems. This backback is well designed it holds my 7-lb 17" monitor laptop and I sometimes wonder if the laptop is even in there it's so comfortable! The straps are a bit widely placed, so if you have narrow shoulders it might be hard to use they are also made of typical backpack material and if you are wearing a tank top you might get a bit of rubbing on your shoulders where the strap touches your skin.

The backpack has one large padded pocket that holds your laptop and that has easy access through a top zipper (that goes all the way down the sides), and then another full length pocked under the "flap" that gets held in place by the small silver buckle you can put a few files or papers in here (I wouldn't plan on putting in full file in here). There is then also a smaller pocket in this area for your phone, mp3 player, pens, mouse, wallet. The bottom pocket is easily accessible and holds all of my computer cords.

It also has a water bottle pocket that can be zipped and hidden away. The pocket is a good concept but is too short for most water bottles you need to plan on only carrying a short or small bottle.

The backpack is also cute I get compliments on it every time I use it, and get asked where I got it every time I use it.

Positives: professional looking and holds my laptop, billfold, etc.

Works much better than my old side shoulder laptop bag that was killing my shoulder.

I regularly walk and ride the bus to work so I needed a comfortable yet professional looking backpack.

I would like it if it came in a slightly smaller size.

Kalencom Diaper Backpack, Gecko Red

Kalencom Diaper Backpack, Gecko RedWhen I ordered this diaper backpack, I thought the color looked so cute and all the compartments, especially the insulated bottle ones were so great. I also thought Gecko Red was a weird name for a backpak which looked to be olive and gray diamonds. Well it turns out, I received a bright red back pack that also wasn't as great as I thought it would be in other ways too. I put the reason for return that it was the wrong color, but the sellers haven't changed it yet. I thought I'd warn future buyers about the color. If it's called Gecko Red, it's really bright red.

Port & Company - Honeycomb Sling Pack Lime

Port & Company - Honeycomb Sling Pack LimeWe bought this for an upcoming trip for our kids. When it arrived I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this bag. My kids especially love the pouch for their i-pods. The bottom of the bag expands out allowing for much space to hold things. It will definitely come in handy for our trip.

Great product looks great with jeans and holds a ton of stuff. Very durable, and handy, better than a purse!

MyGift 13 inch Purple Butterfly and Heart Ornament on Black Notebook Laptop Sleeve Bag Carrying Cas

MyGift 13 inch Purple Butterfly and Heart Ornament on Black Notebook Laptop Sleeve Bag Carrying Case for MacBook Acer ASUS Dell HP Lenovo Sony ToshibaExcelent product. It fits my vaio 13" perfectly. In the beginning you'll find it hard to close but it only happens in the first attempt. After that it gets easier.

I bought this for my 11.6" HP Pavilion dm1 and really like the size. It's only a little bit too big for my HP but once I add the cord and small mouse in the bag, it's just right. I also think the design is cute. It has been holding up well and the zipper slides easily. For the past few weeks I've had it I've dragged it around everywhere and squished in my backpack and it still looks great.

Kata KT D-3N1-11 3 In 1 Sling /Backpack with Laptop Slot

Kata KT D-3N1-11 3 In 1 Sling /Backpack with Laptop SlotUpdate to the previous post that the Kata 3N1-11 Sling backpack for photographers does not hold a 13" laptop, the description reads:

"The 3N1-11 sling backpack features a unique TST RIB structural protection for a DSLR with mid-range zoom lens attached as well as 1-2 lenses, flash + small netbook + personal gear."

I own this series of bags, so to be clear, in order to carry:

Apple iPad, you will need to buy the Kata 3N1-22 Kata KT D-3N1-22 3 In 1 Sling /Backpack with Laptop Slot

MOST 13" laptops, you will need to buy the Kata 3N1-33 Kata KT D-3N1-33 3 In 1 Sling /Backpack with Laptop Slot

Additionally, the "Internal Laptop Compartment" dimensions read:

Length = 17 cm. / 6.7 in.

Width = 4 cm. / 1.6 in.

Height = 38 cm. / 15 in.

Whether or not your laptop will fit will depend on the bulkiness of the shell of your laptop. Please read the dimension specs for your make and model compared with the Kata dimensions very carefully.

You can read the detail on the Kata website here:

I rated this bag 4 stars, because I would like a bag this size to hold my iPad. Then, it would be a perfect 5 stars for me. It holds the gear I carry (Canon 7D without a battery grip attached, a Canon 50mm f/1.4, and a Canon 24-70mm f/2). Remember. It is meant to be a compact bag, so don't plan on carrying ancilliary items AND all of your lenses. However, If I just want to carry my camera gear, including a Canon 70-200 f/2.8L IS I, I can, but then I can only carry my keys and a small wallet by unzipping the divider that opens the internal area of the bag up to include the otherwise separate top compartment where you might carry a wallet, some nutrition bars, your keys, etc. There are still small side pockets to carry a microfiber cloth, polarizers, etc.

DISCLAIMER: I am not an employee of Kata, but I do host a technology show sponsored by Kata. I personally own and use this bag, and I can definitely confirm the information as provided in this review and on the Kata website.

My boyfriend wanted a spacious pack to hold his slr and many accessories. It took him a few hours to put everything in its place so I'd have to rate this as a great bag. He's an exacting engineer type and its been perfect for taking out for hikes and events.

Buy Kata KT D-3N1-11 3 In 1 Sling /Backpack with Laptop Slot Now

I love this bag! Very Stylish and compact( the way i like it) but enough to fill your accessories. Very well padded throughout. Quality is on par or way better than the competitive brands. Seems durable enough to last a very very very long time.

Read Best Reviews of Kata KT D-3N1-11 3 In 1 Sling /Backpack with Laptop Slot Here

This bag just felt too rigid and uncomfortable on my back. And I wasn't trying to overfill the bag, either. And the idea of being able to change straps (sling to backpack to cross) sounds nice, but it just doesn't seem to work well and I found myself asking, "Is this really necessary." It's difficult to hide the second strap of trying sling mode. Also in sling mode, the strap cuts into my shoulder too much. I have had Lowepro Slingshot bags in the past, but I think I would not have liked this Kata bag even if I had never heard of Lowepro. I ended going with a similar Lowpro bag to the one I had previously, only an AW bag, with Rain Cover.

Want Kata KT D-3N1-11 3 In 1 Sling /Backpack with Laptop Slot Discount?

The Kata 3N1-11 has been a great day bag for my travels. I've had it now for about 2 or 3 months, and have used it on several day treks. For what I have been recently doing, my standard load has been my camera with two lenses and a flash. I just have to make sure I pick versatile lenses depending on what I expect to shoot that day. For example, if I know I won't need a flash, I can throw in another lens or two. There's still enough room for a book, notebook, snacks, water, filters, batteries, memory card, pens, and other small items. Perfect for a day of walking around as a tourist and hobby (beginner) photographer. The bag is easy and comfortable to use in all configurations, and I've tried them all. The D-ring has been handy to hang other items like the rain fly, lens cloth, and my point and shoot. Constructed out of high quality materials and made well. Provides outstanding protection for my camera equipment. I was so confident with the bag that when I was in a light rain a couple of days ago, I didn't bother to use the rain fly, and everything in the bag was well protected. To give you some perspective, I'm a career infantry Marine, so I've spent a lot of time evaluating the gear that I use and purchase.

I also bought this from the "used" section of Amazon, and it has far exceeded my expectations. This was my first time purchasing something used from Amazon, so I had no idea what to expect. It was listed as being in "good" condition as opposed to "new" or "very good," and I could not find any damage on it what so ever. It also came with the tags still on. I hope my future used purchases from Amazon are just as good of an experience as this one. I think I saved something crazy like 50% off the regular retail price.

Job well done to both Kata for making a great product, and to Amazon for giving me a greatly value-added service. Thank you to both.

Mickey Mouse "M Factor" 15" Large School Backpack

Mickey Mouse 'M Factor' 15' Large School BackpackWe got this backpack for our son when he started kindergarten, about 9 months ago. It is working out very well. It is large enough to hold all his school stuff, lunch box, and jacket. We use one of the side pockets to hold a water bottle. It has held up well so far, no tears or wear. The only thing it does not have is, pencil pockets in the front pocket. It just has one large pocket, so I sewed a pencil pouch to the inside. We will be able to use it again next year.

Seems very durable, the fabric is thick and the seams seem strong. We love the colors and design. This back-pack is full size, it fits my sons sheet/blanket/small pillow and snack for pre-school. I like the side pockets; we put a thermos in one of them and it holds it perfectly.

Oakley Vertical Messenger

Oakley Mens Vertical Messenger BagLove this bag! It took me about 1 trip to get adjusted to the 'vertical' style of a messenger bag, but I love it. This bag is great for laptop, a tablet, a few gadgets and a few wires. Don't get this bag if you are looking to carry books or such. It keeps you traveling lite, which is what I prefer.

At first this product was great. But after about 2 months the seems all started falling apart. After 11 months the bag is in shambles. I only used it to carry a 13" laptop, a few cables, and miscellaneous things. Never overfilled.

Steer clear of these oakley bags the seems are JUNK!

Ogio Duke Backpack

Ogio Duke BackpackI was looking for a simple, light and not too big backpack to commute with my 13" mac air. I went through specs of so many backpack online and thought that this was the one. I like the simple and cool design and the side mesh pocket for a water bottle. It's not too big for a 5'4" female.

It's almost perfect. I would give 5 stars if it would have had double zippers, which are pretty common even for inexpensive backpacks. The side mesh pocket is not deep enough to hold my water bottle and it keeps falling down when I bend over.

The double zippers are critical. I wish that at least that would change for the next version.

I have had this back pack for a few months now and I am super pleased with it!

It is the best back pack I have ever had!!!

This is such a great quality back pack! It is the perfect size and super comfy to carry with the padding on the straps and back part!

I love the colors!

I am hoping this will last for a very long time, and by the looks of the ogio back packs my husband has (and has had them for years and in aggressive activities and sports)-that it will because his are in great condition still. :)

This is the only company of backpacks I will buy from now, I have had bad luck with other brands.

Wildkin Olive Kids Paisley Sidekick Backpack

Wildkin Olive Kids Paisley SidekickReally cute backpacks! We like this product so much that we will be ordering the sleeping bags and duffel bags that match them. Nice quality. Cute patterns. We ordered Paisley, Butterfly Garden, and Out of This World patterns and adore them.

This is a great backpack and high quality for the price. The straps and zippers especially seem to be very high quality (in fact, the zippers seem sturdier and operate smoother than my older daughter's JanSport that was considerably more expensive). The main compartment is large enough to hold a regular sized folder without the ends bending (unlike many preschooler-sized backpacks). Perfect for my daughter, who is in pre-K and will probably work for her kindergarten year as well. Monograming wasn't available for this product, so I bought some cute iron-on letters at the craft store in pink/green, and they look awesome.

Buy Wildkin Olive Kids Paisley Sidekick Backpack Now

I bought this for my daughter reluctantly, because of the price. It took me three weeks to agree to buy this for her. It took a week for it to arrive. It took me 10 seconds to realize how SMALL this thing is. It barely fits a regular size two pocket folder. It has no place to put a drink. Aside from the disappointment in the size, the quality of the material is flimsy at best. There is no reinforcement in the bottom it is made from the same thin material as the body of the pack.

I would have returned it immediately had my daughter not made such a big deal over getting this backpack i'm sure i will be replacing it before the school year is over....and next time "pretty" is not a deciding factor.

Interestingly this item on amazon was less than the suppliers website. But always ck. online before you finalize your purchase.

Victorinox Luggage Architecture 3.0 Big Ben Mono Retrax Backpack

Victorinox Luggage Architecture 3.0 Big Ben Mono Retrax Backpack, Black, One SizeHi all

This bag is so near to a perfect idea...

BUT (yes, yes, there had to be one... 2 actually)

1) While the curve on the handle server a great purpose, it seems that accomodating that curve in the rear-most compartment (where the computer accomodations are) resulted in some not-so-great compromises: Very cramped when inserting, strapping down and removing the computer a process I have to go through 3-5 times a day. There is no termination on the strap (other than the velcro) to grab on to, and you have to squeeze between the computer and the handle-housing in order to affix the velcro. The computer also catches on the handle housing on the way down, and the top corners of the computer (15" Lenovo) are juuuuuust inside the fabric of the bag not as protected as I would like.

2) no water bottle holders on the side... you don't realize how much you use 'em until you don't have 'em!

Other than these 2 points, it is an awesome bag. It is still "good", but I will continue in my quest to find "great".

russ

This bag is simply awesome! I researched far & wide over 6 months for a bag that suited my needs (I ride a motorbike, work with laptops, & travel with all my puter gear). So my criteria was a proper backpack that I can ride with, that can carry 2 x 17" laptops plus all my puter gear, carry my clothes etc, & not have to carry it through airports. After much research I found the Victorinox Architecture 3.0 Big Ben Mono Retrax is the ONLY bag on market that fully meets this criteria. But to my benefit it exceeds my expectations because it has many more pockets than I expected, it has a handle that locks in 2 height positions that when extended/retracted also extends/retracts the wheels, can be used as carry-on (as a laptop bag), is extremely well padded & consructed, secures away the straps, handle & wheels when not in use, & has its own lost bag tracking system. All I needed to do was find the best price for it & Amazon did that by being half the price of the retail outlets I looked at in several countries. Bonus! I am so happy I bought this bag, & so happy I got it from Amazon.

I also got the STM laptop glove sleeves to protect the laptops when I remove them through security, & they fit like a dream so it all works well.

For the previous post I saw here that had trouble with the handle, I wonder if they realised the handle automatically extends & retracts the wheels, & that the handle has 2 locking positions? I have no trouble with my handle.

Buy Victorinox Luggage Architecture 3.0 Big Ben Mono Retrax Backpack Now

I bought this 3 days ago after searching time and again for a rolling backpack that had plenty organization compartments. This is a winner in that aspect, and the way the wheels hide when the arm is not extended is brilliant.

Although I can point that it is missing a bottle holder on the side, and the laptop compartment was not though for a heavy laptop. My Lenovo w510 with extra battery becomes so heavy that seams to put strain on the zipper, and makes the back compartment almost unusable to store any other things like even a 2,5'' external disk.

And last, and most important, after 3h of normal use, the handle came loose on its axis, and is not working properly while opening and closing. This is NOT what I was expecting in terms of the known durability that Victorinox name carries.

The site is not clear on how to activate warranty outside US or Canada.

Read Best Reviews of Victorinox Luggage Architecture 3.0 Big Ben Mono Retrax Backpack Here

First, it's a Victorinox, and that says A LOT!

Second, there is an incredible amount of room to put things in.

I have a 17inch laptop and it fits. There's plenty of room for other necessities like power cables, USB cables, biz cards, in-flight reading materials, presentation folders and much much more room. It's easy to access the compartments also.

When the handle collapses the entire backpack fits very nicely, and easily, into the overhead storage on airplanes though I will admit that I have not taken it on a smaller turbo-prop flight yet to test it in those much smaller overhead storage bins.

I'm 6'5" and luggage handles have always been a problem I'm always hitting my heels on the luggage as it rolls along with me but not with this one. The handle is long enough and it's curved very easy to keep my feet away from the backpack. Very easy to maneuver about. Also, the collapsible wheels are great when you're rolling along in an airport and need to use the restroom. I collapse the handle and the wheels collapse up also. That keeps the back of my shirt or jacket from getting that nasty airport carpet "stuff" all over my back.

The only drawback is the shoulder straps. You have to pull them out and then "click" them together with snaps towards the bottom of the bag. Just kind a minor pain to do, but it's also nice in that the shoulder straps are not in your way if you choose to roll this backpack.

High quality stitching and overall very well made.

Plan on getting countless miles out of this!

Want Victorinox Luggage Architecture 3.0 Big Ben Mono Retrax Backpack Discount?

Bought this because of the retractable wheels.

Pro's:

1. Retractable system works good.

2. Straps can be hidden which is good as you will not be dragging them on the ground.

3. Good construction

Cons:

1. Retractable system is heavy.

2. When wheels are drawn, the backpack falls forward.

3. Does not fit in small regional gets, with two laptops (Had no problem with two laptops with Tumi)

The leather handel cracked and happened after the return policy ended. Would not recommend.

High Sierra Caldwell Backpack

High Sierra Caldwell Backpack, Carmine RedI bought this backpack for my husband to replace one he has had for years and really needed to be retired! We are not students or serious hikers. He wanted another backpack for traveling, especially for carrying on the airplane, for short excursions and hikes, and even if we are biking. This backpack does it all. It can hold a laptop for the plane, has so many pockets that help keep items organized like sunglasses, camera, water bottle, keys, cell phone...you name it, and you can find a place for it without worrying about everything falling out the minute you unzip a pocket.

Of course if you are a student and want a backpack for school, this is also great because of all the different storage areas, not to mention the price is awesome! I highly recommend this backpack, and I did a lot of research before I bought it.

I recently got this backpack for school. I've only used it a couple of times, but so far I really like it! If you are looking for a pack that feels supportive this is a winner. I carry a lot of books and do a lot of walking around campus. This backpack feels great on my back and I don't feel like I'm going to get a backache carrying all my stuff. Speaking of stuff, there is a lot room/pockets. There is a space cushioned to hold my laptop, a pocket to carry my ipod and headphones or even my glasses. There is a pocket that has a key fob, a PDA holder, pens, pencils, and other things. A pocket to hold a water bottle, and other pockets that I haven't quite decided what to put in them. The straps are great and there is even a pocket on one of them to hold my cell phone. The bag seems to be very durable. I'm satisfied with this product and the price I paid wasn't bad either.

I previously had a Sierra brand backpack before which I used for 3 years before the inner bottom lining broke down recently. My boyfriend bought me one as a gift and I've only had it 3months and I'm down to one strap! The stitching began to break down right away.

I thought that I'd be able to to return it as it is defective. Amazon told me I missed my "return window". I'm extremely disappointed with the product and amazon's inability to replace the product despite defect.

It looks good and is roomy but the quality stinks. I would suggest to purchase it from another retailer that has a no-hassle return policy when it comes to defective products. These backpacks are supposed to last! Not rip at the base of strap. Very disappointed in the product and Amazon.

I like this backpack a lot. It fits my 17" laptop without a problem, and the back is pretty stiff, so I don't have to worry about something damaging my laptop. It fits quite a few books, and is pretty comfortable. I'm a college student and walk around with it all day with minimal back pain. It has tons of pockets, and most of them are large enough that I can fit a school book if I run out of room in the main pocket.

The only thing that bothers me is that the backpack is a bit narrow. I put a 2" binder that gets a little tight.

Over all I love the backpack and would recommend it!
