In looking for a replacement for my last Eagle Creek computer/paper bag, I looked at the upscale options (Tumi and friends). While there were both highly functional and elegant products available, they did not meet one strict requirement: that it be possible to carry the bag as a backpack, comfortably. The Eagle Creek has padded curved straps which allow it to be comfortably carried for hours on hikes, and then tucked in the back and the bag becomes appropriate for the most serious meetings I attend. While I only have a few months of experience with this sack, I have decades of experience with other Eagle Creek products; hope and expect this one to hold up as well. No need to repeat the standard features; I'll note that the combination of large and small pockets, some zipped and some open, provides a flexible system to allow a customization of 'assignments' for tech gear, human interfaces (glasses, earplugs, aspirin, etc.), passports, pens, cards...It works, it is elegant, and it is well made.
