Rucksack Black | 16" Laptop | 29L-34L | Sable by Just Porter

I'm an art student trying to finish up my undergrad, and my grad after. That being said, I've always struggled trying to fit all of my things into one backpack and it was becoming really tiring having to carry multiple things or being unorganized. I wanted a backpack that would fit everything, and that also has convenience to it's design. This is the backpack.I actually just found this brand on Amazon, by chance. Looking through the photos, I immediately knew that this was a well thought out design. This led to reading more about the brand and I even watched the video on their old kickstarter page! (Which did not disappoint!!)When you buy a Just Porter bag, they give a bag filled with school supplies to a child in need. The culture and message behind this company revolves around kindness, and educating today's underprivileged youth! To me, that's just a bonus on top of an awesome backpack.I literally can fit everything in this backpack, with room to spare. It's pretty giant, compared to me anyway. But it's perfect for what I need, which is commuting comfortably while carrying four classes' worth of supplies.The magnetic buckles?! Seriously the coolest. The zippers glide easily, the material is so durable. This backpack is my new best friend. I've gotten a ton of compliments on it as well! The roll up top lets the backpack expand even more. I could go on and on about how I love this thing! It's just super convenient, and I can't see this backpack being replaced any time soon. I'm done searching for the perfect backpack for me, because I've found it! If this style is too big, they have smaller options too. Check out their website!Chris Bahr, the founder, also let me know through Instagram that if I had ordered on the website instead of Amazon.. I would've received a handwritten thank you from him! So that's pretty cool too.

First, I love this bag! I have been using it for some daily commuting, and that has been great. But, this bag really shines for short trips or for a airplane carry-on.I have used Timbuk2 in the past, and that has been fine for what it is. However, I have been looking for a bag with a better attention to detail, better materials and something that had an great tactile feel to it. This bag has met those expectations and exceeded it. Very strong construction, attention to detail is easy to see. From the minute I touched the bag, I knew it was really well made.Pros: Great exterior fabric. Buckles are the best I have seen. Place for iPad under flap, and padded laptop pocket that is accessible from the outside of bag ++++++ (huge plus for people that work anywhere). No unnecessary pockets. Flap pocket works really well for holding items that you need quickly (keys, wallet, phone). Compression straps to cinch what you’re carrying. Can hold about 3 days of stuff for a short trip.Cons: None as of now. Will update later.Highly recommended. Lifetime guarantee made it an easy decision.

Excellent Bag! It can carry a ton!After doing a ton of research on Chrome Industrial, Manhattan Portage, Ortlieb, etc... plain and simple, this bag is a great buy.It has been great for daily use and a weekend travel bag. It holds more stuff than I expected. The exterior fabric is a tarpaulin that is tough, and it seems like it can handle a lot of abuse.Positives:-Thee magnetic buckles are the coolest thing I have seen on any bag. Industrial design is great, and I've never seen them anywhere else.-The design is smart. Pockets in the right place. Exterior laptop pocket. Easy to get to my computer.-Bag has great exterior fabric that cleans with a quick wipe if you get it dirty. Way better than a normal fabric bag.-Very water-resistant. Rolltop + Flap = Dry Inside. -Perfect size for air travel, and it expands with the roll-top. Worked really well for a weekend jaunt to Miami, and it could have held more. Used it as carry-on, and it fit in the overhead. -Front flap has a vertical pocket, which is awesome for holding phone, wallet, etc… quick through airport lines. I place my iPad under the flap pocket.-The inside of the bag is lined, even the front pockets. Most bags don't have that.-Easy access to laptop from the outside.-LOOKS GREAT!Negatives:Not completely waterproof, but nothing really is but a dry-bag.No pocket for water bottle on the side, but I use one of the front pockets to hold one.Summary:Would definitely recommend. Just Porter has made an backpack that is way above the competition. The quality and build are worth it. I received a lot of compliments. It came quickly. I bought the gray bag. If you are looking for high quality bag, this is it. Oh, and I found out that for each bag bought, they give a backpack with school supplies to a child in need. That's a bonus.

I expected this to be much smaller. Prior leaving abroad for work and pleasure, I sought for new bag to replace my solid Thule. This thing is built like a god damn tank and is clearly made of high-quality materials. My friend balked at the price, but I put a premium on comfort and storage range. Though I thought it was large (I'm a tall dude), it compresses quite well. This thing has kept all my electronics, my clothes, and a litany of crap yet it still retains comfort and durability. So far it has been almost a month and this thing doesn't have a scratch despite the abuse I've put it through roaming through different cities.
