Nice bag
"Material is professional. Bag itself is heavier than expected and the straps are a bit wide (I'm petite and it slides off my shoulders). But it looks very nice and fits a decent amount."

"Material is professional. Bag itself is heavier than expected and the straps are a bit wide (I'm petite and it slides off my shoulders). But it looks very nice and fits a decent amount."
"I LOVE this backpack with all the pockets, the space for shoes (or a bento box for packing lunch), and the connecting/detachable cross-body bag. I'm planning to have a tailor remove the keychain connector from the front lower pocket and sew it into the crossbody, which is where I will keep my keys. The other change that I would love to see is the addition of a zip pocket to fit a phone located on the exterior backside of the crossbody (so it would be against the body)."
"In many ways, I feel like this is the bag that I have been looking for. I love the size. I love the functionality. I love the organization. I love the zip off purse. I never had anything more than my small wallet in the purse, but at times, it seemed difficult to get reattached to the bag. The zipper was almost twisted. I had to really work with it to get it to reconnect. I see that as a potential issue in the future, but now this bag is perfect. Several other people on my trip were amazed at the bag and pulled up the website to potentially order a bag of their own."
"I love this bag so much. Beautiful materials, super high-end and high-quality without being loud about it, great organization, the Crossbody integrates seamlessly into the overall look, just a gorgeous bag."
"Wow! I am seriously so impressed with this bag. I needed a larger backpack for work travel, and not only does this look professional but it can hold so much. It’s the perfect under-the-seat carry-on. I especially LOVE the detachable purse. It’s so nice to have an extra bag that isn’t considered a third item on the plane, since it attaches to the backpack. Incredible, thoughtful design!"
"I absolutely love this backpack. I recently purchased it and then traveled overseas in Asia and Europe. All the pockets are thoughtfully designed and I loved zipping off the top satchel for the evening. Classy, practical, and versatile!"
"Very happy with this product. I use it for work travel and it holds my laptop, external Monitor and iPad well. Love the detachable purse. Very well made. I can also see using it for overnight/weekend travel."
"I like it overall, especially with the purse and side pockets. I really like the color, too. I like the insert; however, when it's used, the top section doesn't have much room. The insert is not very sturdy, so when you put too much weight on it, the insert gets pulled down."
"The removable crossover bag is what sold me on this backpack. The backpack doesn’t hold quite as much as my Catalina Deluxe Tote, but it’s a good alternative when you don’t need to cram as much in. The various compartments and pockets are great for organizing everything. Overall, the backpack is easy to use and comfortable to wear. My one complaint is that the crossbody bag itself has no internal zippered or other pockets which means that everything inside is all jumbled together making it hard to find things like hotel key cards when you need them."
"Wonderful bag. Love all the organization. Every item you need to have has a place within that bag."
