Ogio Bandit Backpack

I ordered this pack to replace another ogio pack. The quality of the pack is not what I have an issue with. It is the design of the pack.

Cons:

internal organizer seems to be setup more for a macbook

side pockets are oddly shaped

the padded laptop sleeve is tight with my lenovo 15.6. It fits but the zipper rubs the corners.

The quick access shoulder pocket is to small to hold anything larger than an iphone.

The stitching quality is much poorer then my previous pack.

The way that the interior of the pack is layed leaves much to be desired. it kills most of the usable 1700 claimed cubic inches of cargo space.

the front padded valuable pocket is poorly designed leaving very little space to put anything. a pair of sunglasses is tight.

unable to fit more then a couple of notebooks after getting my laptop and cords stuffed in there

Pros:

it has 2 straps

it holds my laptop securely

In the end I picked the pack up while it was on sale. I am not happy with this purchase.

I bought this pack for college use. It holds all my textbooks and my laptop. I wouldn't recommend it for 17 inch laptops, because of the way the backpack is designed. I'm sure if you measured from the bottom of the pack to the top it would be over 17 inches, but the top zipper is rounded and it sure isn't 17 inches at both edges, so I would guess that the corner of your computer would block the zipper. The bottom of the laptop compartment feels a little thin on padding, but if you have book in setting your pack down won't hurt your laptop. If you're worried about this, I'd recommend sticking some foam in the bottom of the compartment. I actually carry my laptop in my backpack inside a sleeve, so this isn't an issue.

I haven't had it for a really long to test it out, but it seems to be really well made. I've heard the the zippers are the first thing to go, and they don't seem flimsy or weak at all, so I think this pack will last a long time. However the end of the straps where they hang down had little threads hanging off from where they fold the ends up twice and sew them so they won't unravel.. i kept picking at the threads and managed to pick out the stitching, so I rolled up the excess strap and secured it with tape and will resew it when I get the chance. I didn't have to undo any knots or anything. Just tugging on the threads was enough to completely take out that sewing. However rest assured the sewing on the rest of the pack has remained strong and true and doesn't have any hanging threads. :)

Loading the pack with four textbooks + my laptop makes it super heavy, but it's designed well and if you wear it right so that the bottom of the pack hits your lower back, it's not uncomfortable and doesn't cause back strain.

The zippered pocket on the front really is handy for carrying stuff, as are all the other little pockets on the outside. The only thing I don't really like is that the two bottom pockets on each side are where you'd normally find pockets to hold a water bottle or umbrella or something like that.. They're zippered, and shaped so that if you unzipper them halfway they're great for carrying these items, but if you jiggle a lot the zippers sometimes unzipper more, making it potentially possible for your water bottle/umbrella to fall out. :o I wish these pockets were elastic or drawstring fastened rather than zippers, but that's probably my only complaint with this pack.

I've owned this bag for about a year and have taken it everywhere. I have no complaints at all. It has endured road debris while I've got it equipped when riding, it has seen spills in a couple of different compartments, and its seen a variety of weather. Ogio makes outstanding products... I tried this bag because I loved the golf bag I got from them. I've also gotten bags for work and loved them. The easiest 5 stars I've ever given :)

Awesome backpack. Dont think I will ever go with a different brand again. Had under armour and Nike before going to Ogio and it is definitely better than any others.
