COR Surf Travel Backpack Laptop Backpack 28L Black

And not just for the money compared to the other "C" branded bag Sure it's half the price, the same size, very nice water repellent materials and to me the zippers not only feel great but have held up well so far. ( the sippers also include places for locks... nice...) I pack it out with packing cubes I have three that fit perfectly and it holds my 3-1-1 bag along with a travel electronics kit/bag ( extra phone mostly set up as fancy ipod/media device or emergency phone should my daily driver die, magsafe battery, buds, cables etc ) In this bag I carry, Pj's, walking sandals, flip flops, easily can get 6 T's a pair of shorts, a pair of pants, extra socks and undies with room for my Ipad, travel docs, and some nice hidden rear pockets. A great value in a comfortable to wear travel backpack ! ( & perfect augment to my rolling bag even with it's large handle the luggage passthrough on the back works like a champ ! ) Bonus it fits under seat with room to spare or behind my knees after take off. ( allowing easy access to necessities!

Great travel backpack to use as carry on personal item on flights. I also own the 28 L Car Surf bag but ended something. little smaller and easier to pack under a plane seat. It's really well made with so many helpful compartments. You can easily use this bag for a 2 day trip. It holds a lot with clamshell design. It opens like a piece of luggage. Pair it with packing cubes and keep everything well packed and organized. Great padded laptop compartment, hidden pocket for passport and wallet. Nice convenient and accessible top pocket for phone, ear buds, sunglasses, pen, snack etc. This bag is well thought out and it offers a lot at an incredible price. Don't let the price foo you. This is a premium bag and you won't be disappointed.

Bag is perfect for weekend or one week minimalist travel. I bought it for my 12 year old daughter to travel to Europe for a week so her clothes don't take as much room as adults. It was able to hold one large packing cube, flat sandals, and bathroom kit in the large compartment and a medium size packing cube in the smaller lid compartment. Everything fit perfectly. There was still room for her tablet and kids headphones in the front pocket or you could put the tablet in the laptop compartment on the backside. This 28L size fits smaller frames such as kids perfectly. Also for security you can add zipper locks for most of the exterior zippers as shown. The only one I haven't found a way to secure is he laptop compartment. The material of the backpack is a soft water resistant TPU material that feels soft yet sturdy and the YKK zippers have waterproofing along the seams. I have no doubt the construction of this bag is top notch. Love the soft and malleable material of the bag. Some bags that are too stiff are more restrictive on how you can pack the bag. This one has more give so you can squeeze more in it. The bag material also feels very light.

Multi capable backpack serves greatly for short 2-3 day travel or effectively supplements longer periods of travel. Has primary storage for clothing and multiple 5-6 for supplemental items, souvenirs, and documents etc. Held up well from plane to train to boat to car to walking distances!

this is an incredible bag, at a good price point. the waterproofing covers most of the bag and zippers. the laptop sleeve doesn’t have the same waterproofed zipper, but i could easily fit my 15.4 in machine book pro inside a laptop case in the side compartment with no problem and plenty of room to spare. actually i could have fit 2 laptops or laptop and an ipad pro. the internal main compartment is spacious, but not so much that you will overpack. which is good for a bag with solid backpack straps and sternum strap but not additional hip straps. i like that there separate compartments inside the main area for shoes, packing cubes, a brush etc. also like the general amount of pockets. 2 hideaways on the back panel. which are very hidden. the side laptop sleeve. the main compartment. the top access and the front access pockets. all pockets are pretty generous. i do wish there was a little more organization in the top access pocket. i don’t love having to organize items in a big pocket for easy access with additional pouches. such as chapstick, keys, inhaler etc. but the pockets are easy to see into because of the bright green lining which really makes a difference. the zippers are fantastic and overall the bag feels solid and durable. i’ve owned a lot of custom made bags over the years made from backpacking/camping materials for my drum hardware and gear. this bag seems like it will hold up well. the front waterproof material is probably prone to a little light scuffing, which i wish were different but that’s kind of the nature of that material. i personally chose this bag because storms are becoming so common in the northeast and several times i’ve been caught in the rain, worried about my bag and electronics within. i feel less worried now and paired with a dry bag for any internal valuables, this bag will hold up when caught in a storm. the harness system is especially good for people with moderate to narrow shoulders. my partner has an evergoods bag that i tried and the straps are too far apart and too thick. often slipping off my shoulders. with this bag, the straps are that sweet spot of durable but moderately padded and set just far apart to feel really comfortable on my body. the padding on the back is also soooo comfy. lastly should mention the water bottle pocket. it’s deep but is a little tight. i can fit a 20 oz camelbak thermos but it takes a little finagling. fitting my nalgene would probably be difficult, however there is a strong-clip on the top that would probably work great. i also wish they had one felted pocket for sunglasses. anyhooo, overall spectacular bag for the price point and i can’t believe more people aren’t reviewing this bag. it’s on the level of cotopaxi and more expensive brands. this would be great for women or those who have moderate/not so broad shoulders and not super long torsos. tho my partner who is wider and taller than me thought the bag was super comfy too. also i wish the luggage pass thru was horizontal, but i tried it on my carry on and it clears the handle ok. so better than nothing!

The 28L pack is the perfect size for a weekend getaway. I (male 50, 5.10, 34 waist, XL shirt) was able to fit 4 days worth of shorts, t-shirts, underwear, socks, flip flops, and a hat (as well as misc accessories) into the pack. It took some creative packing and was very full, but everything fit. Even fully stuffed, the pack still fit under the seat in front of me on the airplane (although it left no room at all for my feet so I opted for the overhead bin on the return flight). Still though, it’s nice knowing you can put it under the seat if needed and won’t have to check it. The pack itself is very high quality. The zippers are big and sturdy. The compartments make organizing really easy. The hidden pocket is particularly cool for passport or other travel documents. The easy access pocket on top makes it convenient to grab snacks or gum or whatever you may need without having to open the bag itself. The straps are comfortable. Fully stuffed it was a bit on the heavy side for a backpack, but absolutely manageable. My only criticism is that you really wouldn’t use this pack for anything other than packing clothes for a few days. It’s not a universal pack that you’d toss stuff in for a walk in the park - it’s specifically a suitcase. This really isn’t a problem as it’s the whole reason I bought the bag, but now that my trip is over it’ll sit there until next time.

I am on a plane every other week if not every week. I also work on location quite a bit and am outside in the elements, and need my things with me at all times. The Cor surf travel bag checks all the boxes: it’s comfortable to wear, it’s waterproof, it’s durable, it fits a MacBook Pro, portable external monitor, iPad, keys, phone, and at least three to five days worth of clothes and a dop kit- and everything is easy to access. It has hella compartments (including two hidden for passport, etc), and separate compartments in the inside (which flips open like luggage, which is so nice!). It looks rad. It doesn’t look cheap. The arm straps are padded, but not ridiculous. The water bottle sleeve on the side fits most bottles and is durable and not some cheap netting. It’s half the price of other bags that are comparable. I want to buy another one in the off chance that this one gets stolen or lost- I love it that much! It’s been all around the world with me. Get one!

Loving the backpack, it's very functional. Got it a few days ago and am already using it as my carry-on for a 3-day trip. It holds, and has let me organize, my clothes for the trip, toiletries, chargers and laptop. The padded straps are comfortable. Excited to have this as my primary bag for shorter trips!
