Tote Bag Backpack 2 in 1,Waterproof, holds 14" laptop

I commute and carry lots of books and student papers. I have two Fjallraven backpacks that I love but I was looking for a light extra bag, this is great it can hold my laptop and several books with small pockets for personal items and can switch from a tote to a backpack, the straps are fine on my back and disburse the wait. The fabric seems to be water resistant as I have carried it in the rain and had a leaky water bottle. That didn’t pout out onto me. I am very pleased and glad to add it to my commuting bags. It is flatter than most backpack profiles. I got the green color which is a grayish olive green and quite pleasant

I rarely review anything but books but I really love this bag. The fabric and color are great. It’s cute and well made despite being so inexpensive. I bought it for my short walk to work so the unpadded backpack straps are fine. For longer walks and with heavier items it wouldn’t be great. Internal pockets were a pleasant surprise. Changes easily into a tote bag with no sign it’s also a backpack and is adorable. LOVE IT.

I bought this to be my everyday bag for commuting to work, school, etc. It carries all the essentials I wanted it to-- laptop (13" MacBook Air), umbrella, a book or two, small notebook, water bottle, chargers, pens, and a small Tupperware for lunch, as well as some personal items I like to keep on hand like sunscreen, hand lotion, bandaids, tampons, medication, etc. It feels sturdy enough to hold all these things reliably, and is comfortable to carry as a tote. I will admit, carrying it as a backpack is a little less comfortable, especially if you have only a thin shirt on-- with a puffy winter coat, it's fine. The straps are obviously not padded, and the buckles in back also feel just a little uncomfortable on the shoulders, but this seems like something I can get used to. The other bags I was looking at (like Fjallraven's totepack line or Carhartt's convertible tote) were closer to the $100 range, so for this bag's price point, I'm more than willing to overlook slight discomfort-- It is a very light-weight bag overall, so I'm not expecting too much optimization out of it. I like that it has a light-colored lining so I can see its contents pretty easily, and the amount of internal pockets give me as much organization as I need. It's also pretty quick and easy to convert from backpack to tote. I will say, however, that although the straps are adjustable so you can adjust the height of it in its backpack-form, that creates an issue when you convert back to tote-form, because if the length is radically different between straps, the bag will tilt to one side or the other instead of sitting evenly on your shoulder. Not a deal-breaker for me, but definitely inconvenient. I also can attest to its water-resistance-- I wore it out in the snow and the melted droplets sat on the surface without being absorbed. Again, it is an inexpensive bag, so I'm not expecting it to have a hiking-pack level of waterproofness to withstand a downpour, but for my daily commute, I'm not worried that my laptop will get water damaged if I'm caught in the rain for a couple minutes before I can get to the bus shelter or get my umbrella out. This is also my own personal, aesthetic taste, but I like that it doesn't have any big, flashy brand name or logo on it. It's a very understated and clean design. I do wish it came in more colors!

I love the versatility of this bag. I mainly carry as a backpack, but it isn't the most comfortable wearing it that way because the padding is were you would carry it as a tote. I carry a 15.6 laptop every work day, which fits in the bag for the most part, but only when the bag is unzipped, which forces me to carry the bag as a tote. It is a great work bag if you're carrying a smaller laptop a couple of books or notebooks and some other smaller items. I love that it also has a pocket on the outside.

This is exactly what I was looking for: simple, sizeable, and easily convertable. This is pretty compact because it is not deep, but wide enough to span.your back when wearing it. The straps convert on the fly well. Went to Victoria from southern CA and it was just right for ipad, book, snacks, sandwich, sunglasses case, charging cables, phone and wallet. The 2 pockets on the inside made the smaller items and phone easily accessible. The zipper over the top doesn't seal in the contents, but it prevents stuff from falling out. All my stuff stayed safely out when I put the bag under the plane seat in front of me. The color is neutral, and the size enabled me to wear it or carry it when we went out shopping for souvenirs and allowed me to not have to carry multiple shopping bags. This was a great, simple, useful travel bag.

This is my favorite bag to use when I travel. It’s a good size where I can fit everything I need but it’s also not too big. Love how you can wear it as a backpack or just normal tote. And it’s held up through multiple trips

It’s a good work bag and fits my 16” MacBook and other work essentials. Not the best for commuters if you want to put a lot of stuff in it. But good quality and easy to switch from tote to backpack.

Got this bag to take to a conference and it's perfect for that use. Folds up small to pack into a suitcase,. Easily converts between a backpack and tote without having to adjust the straps. Has multiple interior sections - a padded laptop sleeve, 2 open compartments (one of which has a zippered pocket inside it), and a small slide-in compartment for IDs or business cards. Also has an exterior velcro-zip compartment with a key strap. The only thing that it's missing is an expandable side compartment to fit a water bottle, but there's sufficient room inside to include an insulated water bottle. Incredible value for the money, considering some other name brands are charging $70+ for bags with similar features. If you're on the fence, give this a try - I think you'll be impressed!
