A. Mundy (ILLINOIS)
I bought this for Christmas for my cousin, he was amazed how much storage it had. I have one from the same company which I love! I will never go without the back breathing technology again.
convenient backpack and neat look January 7, 2009

SwissGear backpack is incredibly comfortable to use. I've never tried put heavy stuff apart from laptop but it should hold fine.
 Good strong bag but could be a little more spacious January 6, 2009

This is a good bag. Strong, light but could be a little more spacious. The other SwissGear bags that I bought before were a little more spacious than this one. The laptop compartment can hold a 15" laptop restrained by an elastic velcro flap. There is a small opening for letting the earphones out through the backpack which is cool. The sunglass holder is essentially a flap on the straps where you latch the sunglasses on...I don't use it but could be helpful to some. There's a small compartment on the straps for the cellphone too. Overall, this is a light, compact and a sturdy bag. Buy this if you are not too concerned about space.
Good, but snug fit for 15.4" Macbook Pro December 23, 2008
Max N. Sandoval (Honolulu, HI)
This backpack is well made and really comfortable. The shape of the handles sits really well on my shoulder blades not to mention there is plenty of room.
There are some CONS about this item. I ordered this item and its dark blue/grey. I posted pictures under "Share your own customer images". Its not a major issue for me, but for some who really wanted this color it could possibly be a dealbreaker.
Also, I have a 15.4" MacBook Pro and it fits well, but I just almost wish its a .5" taller. If you're not careful and you just open the bag, you could possibly scratch the corners of your MBP, though if you put it in a sleeve, it will fit in the bag, though a very tight fit. (See pic under "Share your own customer images")
Nice size, great construction, and comfortable to carry. December 12, 2008

This backpack is very well constructed with good stitching. The size is just right, roomy enough for a decent sized laptop but small enough to not become too bulky when full of stuff. It also stows nicely under a plane seat.
It has a padded sleeve in the back section to stash your laptop. It fitted my 15 inch screen Lenovo laptop easily and will probably accommodate up to 17 inch (diagonal screen size) laptop but it will be snug. You can also fit other books files in the rest of the area.
I like the square padded section on the back which is designed to keep your back cool in hot weather.
The straps are very comfortable and the backpack does not hurt my back even if I have it on for some hours. The cell phone pocket on one strap and the sunglass hook on the other is very convenient and came in handy on a vacation.
There is also a front section which has a circular pocket for media - I keep my Blackberry and Zune in it. There is another cell phone pocket on the inside as well as 2-3 other small zipper pockets for money, credit cards, id cards etc.
The semicircular zip right in the front is especially convenient as this is a smaller section for all the items to which you need quicker access so you won't have to dig deep through the 2 main sections. The side elastic net pockets are also very roomy and handy.
I like the smooth look and the rugged construction of this bag. It works well for office/school or for casual use on a vacation. This bag comes in another color SwissGear Computer Backpack (Gray/Red) and some other reviewers seem to have received that one instead of the one pictured here.
