Thule Subterra Backpack 23L, Black

I used this backpack while traveling to carry my purse, my electronics, my personal items like jewelry. medications,make-up,hygiene items and my documents. I did not have to dig through this backpack like previous ones I've owned because this backpack's compartments are perfectly organized. I love how it has a strap that allows it to slide securely over the handle of my carry on suitcase. Also I like how it is longer and slimmer as opposed to the typical backpack which when filled up seems to stick out a mile! ( I hate that!) Yet though this backpack is much slimmer it holds just as much.( I like that!) And when worn is comfortable because it is well padded. Best backpack for traveling by air that I have ever owned. It does stick out just a teeny bit further when you place it under the seat while flying but not so far to be a problem . I highly recommend this backpack for air flights.

Looks great, ample storage pockets, comfortable when fully loaded, zippers feel solid, backpack feels well made and no signs of wear over the last 9 months despite daily use. I can't find anything to critique!

I love the design, the compartments are all organized, you can store a lot of stuff. The fabric and the zippers feels durable and not made with cheap materials. I just have to return mine because I was looking for a more tactical backpack. But for everyday use or travel, I give this a 5 star. This will be a very good travel buddy.

We bought one for travel and liked it so much we bought a second. The 30L is a just bit tight for under-seat airplane storage but we could squeeze it into place well enough and we were allowed to take it as a personal item on both US and international flights.Everything on this bag is of high quality. What we love most is the strap design. I have small shoulders and cannot keep some bags "on" easily. This bag not only stays on one or both shoulders but the structure of the bag nicely distributes weight across the back for easy carrying when full.This is not meant to be a hiking backpack so is not as light as some but it is a fine weight when put up against travel backpacks. Lighter than some Tumi backpacks and "almost" as nice.What I would change? I would love if the THULE logo were a bit smaller and I am not a fan of the blue interior (but it does make it easier to find items....and the blue is not visible when closed. I worried it was visible on the zipper but it very subtle and, again, not noticeable when closed). I might also blend the first two compartments for one bigger compartment but this is personal preference and use. All this aside, we did buy a second one because it was super functional, easy to carry, and made of high quality materials.Advice: I would try to avoid buying during travel season. We bought the first one for $130 and the second one (a week later) for $165. Supply and demand - sigh.

Feels durable and comfortable to wear. Only complaint is I wish it had more small inside pockets.

Great backpack! Sits nice and snug on my back, enough pockets smartly placed. Highly recommend!

I have carried this bag for awhile now and can with confidence that I will not be using any other brand. Amazing quality, super stoked with this purchase.

I love that this is well thought out and light with so many useful features. I was blown away that it came with a matching laptop sleeve that had its own organizing pockets. Perfect for a weekend getaway or the light traveler.
