Fjällräven Mochila Räven 28l

Use it for school books and travel. It hold everything I need it too. Great compartment for laptop separate from books will still giving the main storage area plenty of space.

I adore this backpack, and I’ve used it for the last two years for graduate school and work. It’s still going strong with minimal wear. And truth be told - I am really picky about bags. I can easily carry my portable monitor, my 13” MacBook Air, and a book or two, plus my lunch and a light sweater in this thing. It’s true that the back-most opening is just for your technology and won’t be useful for much else besides papers or a slim notebook. But its best asset? Multiple pockets, and a pretty large main compartment. I can organize everything beautifully and I never wonder where my items went. I actually bought the 20L in brown for conferences because I liked this 28L so much for my every day life. I do wish the side pockets were stretchy - they do not move much. But it’s a small tradeoff for the overall organization and functionality for a bag that’s also comfortable to wear. If you’re smaller than 5’5, try it on first, as it may be a bit big for your torso.

I used this backpack to carry my laptop and daily essentials, which I consider normal, everyday use. However, the fabric on the back panel that covers the cushioning started to erode and wear away far too quickly. Overall, it's a cool design but poor quality.

I've been using this bag ~5 days a week for the past 3.5 years and I have been extremely happy with it. On a normal day I use it for my car commute to the office, but I also take it on longer trips or air travel. It comfortably carries a laptop, notebook, flat cooler bag for lunch plus all the little things I might need. The layout and size of the multiple compartments is well designed. It's comfortable to wear (I like not having the chest strap) and carry by the top handle. The materials still look good after a few years. I strongly recommend this bag.

The suspension system is very basic. Shoulder Straps Only. But very great for travel-good compartment arrangement.
