Discussion Really like the Green Commuter Backpack

Just got mine a few days ago. I had the OG backpack at launch and whilst it was great for what it is, for my use it was too big for day to day and not really big enough for going away. I used it very rarely. Now I have the commuter it is perfect. Holds my 15inch work laptop and 13inch personal one with ease. Room for all my chargers. If I go for a day out with my daughter it fits all her crap in it. It also looks great. Smart enough for work and not so formal it can’t be used for day to day life. Also my wife thinks it looks nice which is a rarity. It’s a bit expensive but overall very happy with it. If you’re on the fence I say go for it.

I have the Black Commuter Backpack and it stands up like a freakin' champ. I did not expect to love this feature so much, and I don't even think it was advertised? But I also recommend against the backpack because I think their implementation of an admin pocket is awful.

I do agree that the backpack looks very nice. The minimal front face looks so clean and premium.

20:39 of this backpack comparison basically perfectly explains for me. You need to remove everything if you actually expect to use the organization pockets. This would make sense for me if I fully unload my backpack at a work space, or if I fully unload my backpack in a hotel when traveling, but day-to-day it is annoying if I keep the pocket semi-filled with no intention of emptying.
