BTW even 15" laptop can be placed in it.The quality of the bag is great. It feels solid and I have no doubt it can withstand the daily abuse bags usually take. I am on a plane traveling weekly and I'm not worried about this bag being able to handle this easily. The bag is bigger than I expected, thus being a little roomier than I expected. The strap is comfortable and solid. Additionally, the front of the bag has a small compartment that easily fits several charging cords and earbud style headphones.
The bag itself will easily hold a "smaller" laptop up to 14 inches + an iPad/tablet and other small electronics and a few books.
My only complaint is that inside of the two main compartments there is only a singular zippered "pouch" in each. While both are very large, it doesn't really facilitate organization on a day to day basis. I will look for a smaller portable pouch to store in one to facilitate better organization. The front most main compartment does have three "small" pockets that really won't hold much (think business card sized). The strap has a small pouch, but it seems to small to hold much (glasses included).
Overall the bag itself is definitely a buy. While it's not perfect, it's definitely a great bag (especially since it can be held like a messenger bag or a sling pack/backpack.)
Buy Thule Crossover TCSP-213 Sling Pack for 13" MacBook Pro and Pro Retina Display (Orange) Now
This is an excellent size, strong, good for galavanting around Europe this summer. I bought it to replace an older, smaller one.Bought this for my son and the MacBook Air I recently bought him, quality is superb. Like many people, I have a heck of a lot of bags, there is no perfect bag, thus I have one for different events & requirements. This one is pretty darn neat though. First, the strap is very thick, very strong, and has an aluminum buckle, not a plastic thing that would easily break.Second, it's "bike" friendly, my son takes a bike to college most days, and this works awesome, it's also more "visible" during the winter months in California when the sun sets early. The branding is a high-reflective material.
If anything, it would be nice if it was a few inches longer, not for space-needs, it is quite spacious for the laptop, his DSLR camera, and other things he hauls around, but it would look a little nicer on the back I think, as it's not really something you would buy for a small child (or you might). Nonetheless, best quality bag I've bought in a while.Have now had my pack for a few months and I have to say it's been a great one for my use. I've used it with both my Macbook Air and my X1 Thinkpad. The pack is large enough to where I can have both computers in it and still have space for a few books/papers. After heavy use for the past few months I have not had any fraying of threads or problems with the zippers. I had a targus pack which started fraying within a month or so of getting it so that was a big concern of mine. The one strap design has also been a godsend on my back. The pack settles into my lower back after I adjusted out the strap a little from the default setting it shipped on.
