Tumi Alpha Bravo Day Knox Backpack

The TUMI sales associate claimed this backpack is water resistant -it is NOT. I stood in light drizzle, under an umbrella, for 5 minutes while waiting for a shuttle, and my laptop had water on it. I dried it off and it happened again in my five-minute walk home from the subway. These zippers should not have been used in an upward-facing position because they leak profusely. Really too bad, because it's otherwise an attractive, slender-profiled and comfortable backpack, but for this price it should not have such a major design flaw.

Perfect for my iPad and basic essentials. If you like to carry a lot, this is not for you. My iPad fits with plenty of room left so I think a Macbook or a similar slim laptop would be fine as well. A newspaper, magazine, paper planner (thick), bulky headphones, a couple of chargers, bulky sunglasses and that's about it. But it is so wonderfully slim you don't feel like an elephant in a porcelain shop. And if need be it can be stuffed a bit for times when you have more to carry. Plenty of pockets for great organizing. My only gripe is the brass hardware. As good as it looks (and will probably last forever) it can be hard on your knuckles while digging for stuff in the small pockets.

The other commentator was right -it is not water-proof; my $50 jeansport comes with a lining cover over zippers, so that water can't get in. And it has a life-long warranty. This backpack doesn't have either. Too bad I personalized it after purchasing; now I can't sell or return it :( what an epic failure for a $300 backpack
