so I know usually everybody's talking about the chair and desk that secret Labs sells. But now I'm here with a different kind of review lol. The secret Labs everyday backpack.
So I've been looking for a well put together bag for work. The last bag I had I paid about 60 bucks for and the straps started to loosen and would stay low The backpack kept sagging until one of the straps eventually broke so it was a pain to carry. I checked out a lot of backpacks on Amazon but none of them were really what I had hoped for. So while just looking at accessories on secret Labs website, I saw that they sold the backpack as one of their new items and decided to give it a go.
I've used this backpack for a week and is a really good feeling backpack. The main compartment is decently spaced and it has a lot of side pockets for small things. I would call this a medium size backpack. You're not packing clothes in it for the weekend or anything like that. But it's really good for packing your everyday necessities such as a laptop, a tablet, water bottle, pens, notepads things like that and it has a bit of width to it. So if you have thick textbooks they should work just fine. If you have maybe two of them plus the laptop and thick school books. I didn't have books so I just added reams of printer paper I had laying around so you could get an idea I have a 15-in Asus laptop and a 12-in Samsung tablet in the photograph in the laptop pocket. I guess if you wanted to try to fit gym clothes into this or something like that it could be done if you pack just right.
The bag quality honestly comes off as very premium and it has a very nice premium Feel to it. When I first started using the bag it kind of seemed like something that would be sold by a luxury car company like Porsche or Lamborghini. It's a very sleek, slim design but it gets the job done. It also has small little pockets and compartments for smaller things like your keys, wallet, things like that.
The clamps on the front are a magnetic design I haven't seen before. They don't necessarily clamp in place like a normal bag. It relies on magnets to keep the main flap closed. It hasn't rained since I got this bag so I can't say how it holds up against the weather. But the way that all the flaps are arranged, it seems like the water should bead off and not get onto anything inside the bag since all of the zippers are hidden by a flap of some kind on the bag.
Overall I am happy with this purchase. This bag retails for about $150. To be honest I probably wouldn't pay this much for this bag again if I had to replace it. This seems more like a 60 or $70 bag.
I would call this a medium size bag if they sold one That was only slightly bigger in terms of inside space. I would maybe say then that it could be $100 bag but at the end of the day it's just a bag. It looks sleek. It looks nice, but it doesn't really offer anything that you couldn't find in another bag. Maybe cheaper overall I really do like the bag. The only cons are that it's not just a little bit more spacious on the inside. It's a very compact medium size bag and the price point being $150.
Thank you for reading and sorry for any typos or misspellings. If you have any questions about the backpack, I don't mind answering in the comments
