Bellroy Transit Workpack Second Edition (20 liters, laptops up to 16”, tech accessories, gym gear, shoes, water bottle, daily essentials) - Black

The materials, quality, durability and design of this backpack makes it the perfect daily carry bag. The top pocket is perfect to use with the Bellroy Tech Kit Compact which holds all my cables and chargers. My Macbook Pro M1 fits easily in the laptop section which is top loading. I really like the top loading aspect of a bag. I had tried the Bellroy Classic Backpack 2nd Edition and while it's an excellent bag as well, I prefer the top loading laptop section of the Bellroy Transit Workpack. It also fits more internally. The straps are a little thin but comfortable. I love the Lunar color option. I really dont have any complaints about the bag. I suppose the only negatives I could say is the internal bottle pockets do eat up some of the internal space but it's not terrible and the straps could be a bit more padded but I get that this is really a daily carry backpack and it does that extremely well. I highly recommend it.

I invested in three bags this month for different sorts of tasks this year. I first got a sling which (I know) looks like a glorified fanny pack but it’s really great to carry a few things when I’m cycling somewhere. It is comfortable, small, and easy to throw over your shoulder and go. My second bag is this 20 liter transit bag and this is my go to work bag. I have to be honest, when I first got the bag I did not like how hard it was. It’s off to describe but it’s sort of like a really stiff canvas feel (though it’s made out of some nylon kind of fabric). But, as I used it I can’t say it softened up, but I did come to appreciate the stiffness of the bag. I can easily put my 14 inch computer in the back tech sleeve and it feels protected. There is padding on the back that makes it extremely comfortable when wearing it, and the fact that the bag holds it shape even when empty is something I’ve grown to appreciate. The sturdiness of the fabric is definitely water resistant and it has a tremendous quality with the pockets, mesh and attention to details. I can’t say enough good things about it and plan on using it as my travel bag for flights as well.

Nice backpack, lots of compartments and space for all the essentials. Only 4 stars due to lack of chest strap, shoulders straps kept falling off the sides. Will buy the original pack cause it has a chest strap.

As a woman who works in IT and needs space for everyday needs this is the perfect backpack. I have a 16'' MacBook Pro and it fits perfectly in the main slot for the laptop. On top of that it is perfectly padded and had plenty of space if you wanted to slide in an iPad or tablet of some sort. It also has a pocket that I have used for sunglasses. The main compartment has plenty of space for additional items (a change of clothes, more tech things). I love that it unzips fully so you can pack it like a suitcase if you wanted to use it for a change of clothes. There is an additional front pocket for things that you want to keep secure, such as a keys or your wallet. The front pocket can also be used for things that need to be easily accessed. Also as someone who is 5'2 I tend to not buy backpacks at the fear of looking like turtle but this definitely does not feel bulky or too big. The material is easy to take care of as far as cleaning. The price is a little steep but I think for the quality you are getting a good product for the price. I am avid buy it once and use it forever with a bigger-ish price tag for something like a backpack. Overall, Bellroy will always be my go to brand for all my work bag needs.

I will be travelling to Europe in 1 month for 3 months - I ordered 4 backpacks to review and test - We are doing no checked bags only a carry-on and a personal item. So I need a backpack that can hold alot and have tons of pockets - and well organized. This isn't it! It looks great and is well made. But, for the money it's not the backpack I choose. You can get others for under $50 that are better for the price. It looks and very chic - I need practical not chic - I returned it.

I absolutely love this bag! It is just about the perfect size with only a handful of truly minor flaws (that I've only managed to find after months of daily wear). This bag fits everything, neatly, and snugly, keeping everything organized and in its proper place. The top pocket, laptop/notebook sleeve separation with the hammock hole is super convenient for being on the go, snagging work IDs, snacks, etc. The main compartment fits nigh on anything else you would need to store, comfortably stashing a pair of my 9.5 size men's shoes, as well as a full sized metal water bottle, and other knickknacks. However, the minor mesh sleeve in the back end of the main compartment really fails to live up to much purpose, as the hammock hole from the separate pocket droops down significantly under any weight, causing access to the mesh pocket in the main compartment to be difficult. I think the main comparment could use with some more building out in future designs to increase overall organization, but for now this backpack still rocks the daily work commute game like no other.

The bag is amazing but has one critical flaw that makes it near useless for its intended purposes. The straps cannot stay at a given length due to the material used. Example: If I empty the bag and place just my 14" MacBook Pro in the laptop section, the straps still slide and the backpack ends up hanging at its lowest point. I'm very disappointed that such an expensive bag would have such a huge flaw.

It’s an absolute ten of ten, it have a lot of utility pockets for organizing all your stuff. It have a useful keychain integrated and the laptop pocket it’s amazing. I’m in love with this backpack.

Ho acquistato il Bellroy Transit Workpack (20L) qualche settimana fa e lo sto ancora testando per bene, ma si notano subito alcuni elementi che lo rendono superiore alla maggior parte degli zaini che abbia provato negli ultimi anni. Innanzitutto è incredibilmente comodo: gli spallacci si adattano molto bene alla conformazione del petto e la distribuzione del peso sulle spalle è ottima. E' anche molto capiente e dotato di vari scompartimenti per tutte le esigenze, scompartimenti che sono decisamente flessibili (riesco senza problemi a inserire un laptop Galaxy Book 4, da 16'', con tanto di custodia Native Union!). Il tessuto del Bellroy Transit Pack è un altro punto a favore, spettacolare al tatto, molto elegante e piuttosto impermeabile (anche se non ho ancora provato ad andarci in giro sotto il temporale... e non ci tengo a provarci nell'immediato, scusate :D). L'unico, e ripeto L'UNICO difetto che finora ho riscontrato ha a che fare con i regolatori degli spallacci, che purtroppo non hanno un buonissimo "grip", ma dopo un po' ci si abitua (e in ogni caso esistono delle soluzioni online, basta cercare "Bellroy straps slipping problem"). Continuerò a testare questo zaino nei prossimi mesi, ma per ora sono più che soddisfatto.

This is probably my favourite bag I’ve ever bought for work. I can fit everything in and yet it’s still compact and easy on my commute. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for the perfect bag for work or a slightly smaller bag for travel!

ideal day pack. might be too large for a personal item on a plane, but I got to Tokyo tote for that!

I really like the backpack, it can fit my shoes, lunch, tech pouch, notebook, toiletry, umbrella, and you still have a lot more space, I use it to work commute and it works great, its also water resistant the fabric but the zippers are waterproof and for me that's really important with the snow all the time. I really recommend it.
