Wow, this ended up being a good decision. I debated on whether to even get this because we had two similar size suitcases that met our typical travel needs. But I thought the backpack feature, when needed, would make carrying multiple bags a bit easier. We prefer not checking our bags so travel size was important. We unboxed this and the next 10 minutes was an adventure hunt. There are pockets after pockets and someone obviously put a lot of thought into this bag. This bag will now be our first choice when packing for a short trip. Very very pleased with it.

This large backpack is perfect for traveling when you don’t wish to have an extra suitcase. It has a large main compartment suitable for clothes and shoes. There are three compartments on the exterior front, plus two more compartments on the underside. The lower ends of the back straps detach and can be stored in the upper underside compartment for times when you’d prefer to carry the backpack like a suitcase. The main compartment opens fully (like a suitcase), making packing easy. The product includes two cases that fit in the main compartment for organizing loose items. One unusual aspect of this backpack is how the back straps connect to the backpack. The upper ends of the back straps are where you would expect them, but the lower ends attached to the front, rather than the back, of the backpack. This means when using only one strap, the backpack will tend to sway from your body. Other than this oddity, the product is well designed and well manufactured with quality zippers and materials. I am glad I ordered it and look forward to using it this summer on vacation.

I’ve used many different backpacks, duffels and luggage throughout the years but this one is the best yet. The internal organization is fantastic, and the backpack straps are very comfortable. I was worried it would be too big and heavy but it is the perfect size. It is very comfortable to carry. I initially wanted this bag in preparation for a 2+ week trip overseas, but it has also been perfect for long weekend trips locally and the short trip I took to the Midwest. It holds everything I need with plenty of room to spare. I love the color, it’s awesome. The quality seems excellent as well. Highly recommend this travel bag.

My number one downside about this bag is actually a feature: there are a *lot* of bags, zippers, clasps, mesh pouches, buckles, velcro latches, secret compartments, loops, straps and various other features. Its so feature rich Im overwhelmed; the stock photos undersell it all. I do get excited about the impressive amount of flexibility and versatility, but I--myself--just dont have an obvious use case for each and every one of these nooks and crannies. To meet the needs of a wide variety of people, though, this makes for a good product. I really like one item in particular: this bag doubles as a work/laptop bag *and* an overnight/travel bag, and several of the features are especially useful in that regard (it is expandable, and it has elastic tie-downs for clothing). My son actually snagged the bag from me, and--declaring its now his--uses it for school stuff. All of the various compartments are great for his books, papers, folders, phone, school-issued ipad, lunchbag, musical instrument bits & bobs, and all the other stuff he has to carry back & forth. Its actually a good, multipurpose backpack for a pre-teen. Itll also work really well as his carry-on travel bag for airplane rides: itll hold all his travel clothes for our destination as well as his on-plane busy activities (e.g., videogames, books, etc.). For under $50, the overall quality of this bag is pretty good considering the price. The zippers seem to be fine, the leather-like material is okay, and there is the occasional bit of durability-focused additional stitching. Im prepared to buy a second one for my son.

I got this convertible backpack to travel with and I’m really impressed with it! It’s really nicely made, smooth zippers, reinforced seams, and I love that the backpack straps tuck away so nothing snags on them when you tuck it under seat or overhead. Lots of pockets and zipped compartments for all of your stuff, including a padded sleeve for your laptop or iPad. Comes with packing cubes which are always a great idea, and the fact that you can backpack it through the airport OR carry it like a little suitcase is great. Also has a strap to drop over your suitcase handle if you’re not into carrying. Surprisingly roomy! A great investment for short trips or when you want to maximize your travel packability.

There are so many features and so much space in this backpack / weekend suitcase yet it is much lighter and not as bulky as I imagined it would be! You’ll spend several minutes exploring all the nooks and crannies of this! So many places to keep items secure and safe, including a laptop, as well as everything you’d need for a weekend getaway. I can’t wait to travel with this! It also looks great and seems quite durable. So far, there’s nothing I can think of to change or add, the designers already thought of everything! Happy with this as I’d imagine any traveler would be!

The bag was a good quality, but to small for what I needed. It came in three days late so I needed to go buy a small suitcase. It will be returned.

This is exactly as described. The straps are tucked in the back zipper at the top. Has a clip to hold your clothes in place. The colors are nice and fabric feels strong.

Great for Travel. I bought 4, 3 as gift to love onces

I purchased another 40L backpack before and had to replace. This one seems more durable. Excited to put to use.
