COR Surf Carry On Travel Backpack | Island Hopper 2.0 Ultralight Ariline Approved Personal Item Backpack| 28L Matte Black Waterproof Edition - FREE S-Clip Included

This backpack is so much better for travel than a regular backpack. I love that it opens like a suitcase and there is room on both sides for clothes and/or shoes. It makes it so much easier to see and find the things you brought. I’ve used it for overnight and weekend trips this winter. I am on the small size so my clothes don’t take up a ton of space but I was able to fit Chelsea style boots and a pair of sneakers along with jeans and a fleece pullover, dress pants, 2 sweaters, a workout outfit, pajamas, and a small makeup bag on the inside of the bag. I stuffed socks etc inside the sneakers and shoes. I was able to fit a full quart sized ziplock in the outside front pocket and didn’t use the smaller front pocket. My surface pro and some cords for nicely in the laptop section. I probably could have stuffed leggings and a tee shirt in as I still had a little room left in the bag. I really like the bag. It’s comfortable to carry on my small frame too. I’ve got lots of compliments on it. It has a trolley strap which will come in handy on a longer trip.

Overall the backpack's looks and quality are as described. Zippers seem to be good quality and water resistant. Functionality is good and also everything is as described. I like the hidden pockets, very practical. I'm not a big fan of black, but this was the only option for the newer model... I will update this review after my first larger trip.

I purchased this bag for an upcoming trip, i'll be traveling for just a couple of days and I've seen the previous model as some of my friends have them and they have nothing but good things to say. So I opted to get the new 2.0 model and see if the bag was everything they were raving about and boy it did not disappoint! I can pack so much in it and it's only a 28L, I'm tempted to get the new 34L leader bag asthe materials are really nice and they come with YKK zippers! It also comes with a laptop compartment as well and the padding on that section will definitely protect my computer. This bag is definitely worth it and I'll be using it for an everyday bag and when I go on weekend trips, I'll be getting the 34L bag and using that one for longer trips as it also comes with a waist belt.

This backpack is super spacious with so many compartments. I love multiple compartments because they allow me to find specific items right away. If you’re going on a short day trip, this backpack is large enough for a couple of outfits and other essentials. The design is just truly awesome and one of the most functional backpacks I’ve ever used.

Say it's for under the seat and it's personal and it's not carry on and that one won't let me get on the plane and it's supposed to be matte black and it's shiny and inside very bright green

It has too few external pockets. It's a pain opening up the entire backpack to get headphones and Kindle. there is a place for snacks and something small like a phone, but that's about it.

I usually opt for a lighter Osprey backpack when traveling but I saw this one and ordered it because it looked pretty nice.I've taken it on two trips (one car trip over multiple states and one trip where I flew), both 4+ days long. I was able to fit all the clothes that I needed plus a laptop or three.The material and construction on this backpack are very nice -- I like the YKK zippers and weather resistant zipper seams. The material is a little glossy and can be a taste thing - you stand out a bit with it but not in a bad way. Storage capacity is pretty nice, two laptop pockets that are accessible from the side so clearing TSA is easy. I fit 3 laptops on one trip without issue but obviously not advised.Biggest downside in my opinion is the straps. Not very padded so you feel it when you load this backpack with 50lbs worth of stuff but maybe I'm just a crazy guy for taking that much gear lol.No regrets on this order.

Dope bag
