EVERKI Onyx Business Laptop Backpack – Durable Leather Ballistic & Nylon Bag, Travel-Friendly Design, Dedicated Space for Up to 15.6” Laptops, Stylish Office Backpack, 25L Capacity (EKP132), Black

I don’t write reviews - I think this might be my first ever on Amazon. But I’m so happy with this bag I had to post. It’s worth every penny.I’m a weekly business traveler and this bag is perfect. The pocket for sliding onto my luggage handle is well designed and drops onto my Samsonite roller easily. Comfortably fits a large laptop, my ipad, and anything else I want or need to carry. Outside is very stylish and sleek and durable. Inside is velvet smooth but durable. I even had a TSA agent compliment me on the bag the other day. “Hey, that’s a damn nice backpack!”It’s got several easy access pockets to drop your watch, wallet, phone(s), keys, phones, etc. in to zoom thru security. I just can’t say enough about how well this is designed… it’s like the designer was an experienced biz traveler.If you are on the fence just do it, you won’t regret it. I’m a buy it for lifer and this is the backpack I was looking for.

I had been using a Pad & Quill backpack (Large, discontinued) for about 3 years but it was sub optimized as a tech backpack. After looking at several options, I chose the Everki Onyx and couldn't be happier. Intelligently designed compartmentalizations facilitate rapidly building muscle memory for finding exactly what I'm looking for. Further, it lends itself to easy and efficient loading when trying to achieve escape velocity from work. I love the separate sleeves in the same compartment for laptop and tablet, as well as the bright orange soft interior that makes it easy to find things in low light. The hard case for eyeglasses is a thoughtful touch, as is the pass through for a carry on extended handle. It's not a bag one could use as a single bag for a weekend, but it readily relieves one's principal carryon of all the tech and work paper. I've had it only a couple months so not enough time to evaluate durability, but the materials certainly suggest that it will contend well with years of daily use. Unlike those of the P&Q backpack it replaced, the shoulder straps for the Onyx are very comfortable and quickly adjust for a perfect fit. I could wear this on a hike and not tire of it. At $295 it may seem overpriced, but certainly not when compared to an equally equipped Tumi bag. By comparison, the Onyx is a great value and I strongly recommend it to anyone who needs to have all of one's tech handy whether at home, at work, or working remotely.

Been an airline grunt now for 20+ years. The biz can be a meat grinder and those of you in know what I'm talking about when it comes to tools of the trade. I've owned Samsonite, TravelPro, Purdy Neat (aka LuggageWorks), and Briggs and Riley. Whether it's a trip to Scranton or Singapore, we NEED durable stuff for our, uh, stuff. Our gear needs to abide rogue hotel van drivers, dirty cockpits and galleys, deadheads crammed into coach like a rhesus monkey and on and on. Don't listen to/read the self-proclaimed road warriors' travel gear reviews. Listen to flight crews' reviews. Our stuff takes a beating that makes an NFL linebacker grimace.My luggage complement now consists of Briggs and Riley roll-a-board and THIS. I buy quality crap because I need it to last but couldn't justify the mega-$$ for the B&R companion backpack. This bad boy is just as good as anything B&R makes if not better, and for less money.I read a LOT of reviews beforehand and really wanted something that worked especially well in the flight deck. Here's where this dude shines:* It sits upright and doesn't flop on the ground like a Premier League midfielder.* It has an excellent and sturdy sunglass holder...ON TOP! Pilots take note. That little space to your left or right) up front is limited. Idk about other planes but it fits perfectly in a B757/B767/B777, etc.* The front pocket with a magnetic latch is perfect for your Telex headset.* The rear laptop/iPad pockets are generous and hold my collapsible cockpit window shades in addition to the other stuff like a clipboard (that we use to hold our lunch).* Plenty of pen and doodad holders.* Sleeve for sliding over roll-a-board handle.* One-of-a-kind zippered side pocket for passport and wallet. Not completely hidden but close enough.* THE ZIPPERS! Chunky and robust, like your captain that's subsisted on crew meals for years.* Overall construction and material is great.* Not a spaghetti mess of useless dangly straps that nobody EVER uses. I'm talking about you North Face.* The side pockets are fantastic. I use one to hold my flashlight. The other for an umbrella. One of 'em is purportedly for a water bottle but haven't used it as such yet.Granted, this unit is new. Let's see what a few trips does to it!

I've been using this backpack for about a year now and couldn't be happier with it. Lots of space, well organized, comfortable, well made. I never knew how much I needed a sunglass case built into my backpack until now. Or a secret side pocket to hide my contraband. It's little things like those that make this such a pleasure to use, both day to day or when traveling. And I feel like it's going to last for decades. Wl definitely worthy of its premium price.

This is a great bag! My husband loves it. It has everything he needs including a case for his glasses.

I just received this backpack and so far it looks like a quality product that will hold up well. I have had a different backpack to hold all my electronics tocarry-on the plane and I really like that bag as well. The problem was I have a shoulder that has started to bother me when traveling. The bag I am replacing however was a loose fit soft bag and the payload shifted to the bottom. This backpack I can stack my items and they won’t do that. I can’t wait to try it out while traveling. So far I am happy with the purchase.
