> 24 hourI wouldnt want to use this backpack for a daily work-day, but for any sort of a trip, this backpack is extremely solid and will protect everything inside of it like a tank!

> 24 hourTheres a reason HIMZ, (the manufacturer) calls this the warrior. although theres raised lettering on the front that calls it patriot. Either way, this is one durable, well made bag. We just started using it, but at this point Id say that all the features the manufacturer has pointed out are accurate. First of all, the basic material is very strong. I count four pockets on the exterior, (image to the right) and they truly are on the outside of the bag; they didnt take room from the interior to create the four compartments. And each one is easily accessible from outside the bag. As for the interior; theres a good sized compartment for a 16 laptop, (maybe a little larger one without a cover,) and two more. All are lined. Im guessing that the linings are there to protect the electronics in case the bag is dropped or slammed while in transit. If you choose to, you could pack a 13 laptop in one sleeve, a phone in the next, and enough clothing for a long weekend in the rest of the roomy interior. (see image on the left, that shows the bag, fully loaded.) The closures on the exterior are robust and theres a drawstring on the top, under an oversized, two layer flap, that provides an extra level of protection from the elements. The padded back will probably provide a reasonable cushioning for the average walker, although that would not be me. Im a pack and load type traveler. The HIMZ warrior/patriot is a really solid backpack. And the price seems more than reasonable. It may not be for the arctic explorer at the edge of the world, but its more than sufficient for the average traveler who wants to take electronics and clothing in the same bag.

Great materials were used in its construction. The zippers slide nicely and the design was well conceived, simple and uncluttered. Someone took their time here in its ideation. You cant go wrong with a rugged but functional design for the modern day worker. Comfortable to use.

> 24 hourThe backpack appears to be well made of durable material and easy working zippers. Id would hesitate to call it waterproof though. Water doesnt bead up and roll off like other waterproof materials Ive tested. It seems to soak into the outer skin somewhat. The insides will be protected for a while but I dont think you will want to have this out in a downpour for very long. Nevertheless, I still give this bag 5 stars because I like everything else about it. It has two front zippered pockets - the largest can fit an iPad mini. Two side zippered pockets for water bottles, etc. The back has three pads - one on each shoulder blade and one for the lower back - to make it comfortable to wear. The two shoulder straps are adjustable and padded as well. The main compartment cover is secured with two adjustable clip-in straps. The inside compartment has three pockets - a divided mesh pocket and two flannel lined pockets. The smaller flannel pocket will fit an iPad mini and the larger flannel pocket will fit a full size iPad (also a 15.6 computer but I didnt have one to test that). The main compartment closes with a drawstring that is easy to use. One other thing I like about this backpack is the size. It should conform to most airlines specifications for a personal size bag and therefore not require an extra bag fee. I havent taken a trip yet to actually check this backpack in the airline gauges at the airport but I dont expect any problems.

> 24 hourThis laptop bag has plenty of space to put your laptop, notebooks and other accessories in. It seems durable so far and I love it!

> 24 hourThis is not your basic backpack. It is taller then most and the material feels almost rubberized yet flexible. It will be easy to clean. Both sides have large zippered pockets large enough to hold a good size water bottle. The inside has to deep pockets protected with a rigid yet slightly flexible board to protect a laptop. I wish these were removable so if I didnt want to carry a laptop the bag could be scrunched down. It would be an amazing book bag for school or carry on for travel. I want it to be water repellent for all my fishing, mushrooming & hunting fun. The protection from the outdoors is a big deal in wet country.

> 24 hourThis is a very nice looking and well-made backpack. The material, I think, is the most unusual thing about it, it feels like canvas with a slightly rubbery coating, I like the feel of it, I just wonder how it will wear for the long term. I love the hardware they used, the clasps with the Xs and the big over-sized zippers. It has an industrial design look to it. For the photos, I filled the main compartment with two large coat jackets and there was still plenty of room left in the exterior pockets. For some reason I picture a commuter in NYC wearing this backpack in the rain. I appreciate that theres a flap with clasps over the main compartment to help protect against spills and theft by pickpockets. The padding on the back is quite thick, it adds a lot of bulk but Im sure if I was wearing this backpack fully loaded for any length of time, I would appreciate the padding. The only thing I dont like about this backpack is the white rubbery lettering, it could be mistakenly considered political in a way that I dont want to be associated. I thought about putting a pin over it, but I dont really want to poke holes in the fabric, and a sticker doesnt seem like it would stay stuck to it. Im sure Ill find something to look good in that spot.

> 24 hourpro: deceptive amount of storage space in backpack, front and side zipper pouches, con: flap clips feel a little flimsy and look like they can break if not clipped properly; wish the top flap had another zipper pocket...
