The Commuter Backpack - Weatherproof

After a lot of research, the Commuter Backpack was the best product on the market that meets the personal item dimension requirements for fitting under an airplane seat.

I purchased this backpack as a complement to my carry-on suitcase for use on a three week round the world trip from which I just returned. My goal was to not check in any luggage. I used my suitcase for clothing, etc and used the Commuter Backpack for all my electronic gear, paperwork, and random small items.

For the most part, the assorted pockets worked real well, There were a few bulkier items that were a bit of a challenge to find the proper pocket. I wish the front two pockets were a little deeper. I used the upper one for stashing items from my pant pockets before going through TSA/airport security. With bigger items like my cell phone, passport and wallet, the upper front pocket was close to full. The lower one was not deep enough for my travel needs.

Now that I am done with the trip, I will use this backpack for its intended purpose. The one day a week that I work in the office and need to bring my gear with me.

Love it

Solid all the way thru

It has worked great overall the straps slip a little but nothing that has been an issue only noticeable when taking on and off. I adjust once it is on and it will hold until I take it off. Fits my computer in the dedicated pocket and a lot of other items in all of the compartments available.

Best backpack I’ve owned!

This backpack is very durable and compact while also having plenty of room and compartments within the backpack. Zippers are very smooth and it feels comfortable to carry. My only issue is that there is no way to retract or hide the chest trap because I don't see myself ever using it. Other than that, it's pretty much perfect and I don't see myself buying any other backpack in the future, unless they release more colorways or something.
