Does not look premium KCR bag!

I purchased this backpack in May of 2018. It is still like new. Just the right size to take to client meetings and is quite spacious when needed on those travel days.

This is a nice looking backpack and seems like it would age gracefully with use. My main complaint is with the laptop compartment. It doesn't have any padding or a pocket to lift the laptop off the bottom in case the backpack is dropped heavily onto the ground. Some straps to secure the computer would be nice as well, but overall this is a nice backpack.

Exactly as described. Lots of pockets throughout. Very happy with backpack.

A comfortable, lightweight and surprisingly roomy bag that’s great at work and for travel. The leather looks great and the bag gets lots of compliments. Lots of compartments, including an easy access laptop compartment for those airport stops, make organization easy. Time will tell how durable this bag is, but so far it’s great! All without breaking the bank.

There are many things I like about this bag. It is a nice size - not too big, not too small. It has a good amount of compartments and pockets without being overly complicated. It stands on its own without falling over. It's a nice quality of leather and looks great without being formal. Other reviews have pointed out that the laptop pocket padding is minimal at the bottom, which is true. I don't find this a big deal, but it would be simple to just add a strip of foam in there to keep it safe. The one thing I do miss that I've had in other bags is the lack of an external pocket for a water bottle. Overall, though, the benefits out weigh this small shortcoming for me.
