Drifter II Laptop Backpack, Black/Gray – Backpack for Men for Business and Travel, Durable Water-Resistant Material, Fits up to 17" Laptops (TSB239US)

If you are looking for a backpack that offers utility and ample storage, while also being sturdy and well-made, this is it. I was initially looking at a sleek all-black Swissgear backpack, but upon reading its reviews found that the craftmanship was lacking. This backpack definitely outranks most of the sleeker designs you are finding right now, I assure you. Perhaps it doesn't exactly fit the aesthetic you are going for, but if you are someone like me who values quality and longevity, this is the correct choice. Aesthetics be d*mned, I just want something that is going to LAST. So far, this is living up to that expectation.

Excellent pack that protects laptops and can carry a surprisingly large amount of stuff easily. I often carry two laptops in this bag - a smaller one in the padded pouch, and a larger one towards the back pad. I've yet to damage either device while using this bag. The number of pockets and features is really impressive, and makes organizing for day trips or outdoor events easy. The heavy-duty upper lift strap is super helpful too. I'm really happy for the quality for the price I paid.

After 17 years of daily use, mostly in a marine environment, it was time to replace my trusty Targus Drifter II laptop backpack. I couldn’t be happier to find an exact replacement here on Amazon. Sturdy would be an understatement in describing this backpack. It has so many pockets, you will probably forget a few of them. Thick padding on the back and shoulder straps make it extremely comfortable. The computer pocket is nicely padded and is a full pocket, not just a padded divider like in most packs. The padded hidden pocket at the small of the back is perfect for your most valued items. I doubt a thief could access it while worn. A plush lined pocket at the top of the back is great for delicate items. I keep a hard drive, flash drives, and card readers in mine. The reinforced carry handle is bullet proof. I’ve had handles tear off in days on other backpacks. This one is vinyl covered aircraft cable and never failed. I hope to retire in less than 17 years and not need another laptop bag or I would buy another one for backup. I highly recommend this pack and that you get one before they are gone. From their website, I don’t believe Targus makes the Drifter II anymore. This maybe the last backpack you need. I know it will be mine

Nice quality. Like the space. This is an upgrade from a 15' laptop bag from the brand it looks just like. The zippers work well and are big. Pleanty of space for books, food, an extra pair of underwear and socks or your jacket. Cool hidden pocket (I'll let you figure out were it is) allows for storage of money and the odd person defense item you may or may not wish to carry. I carry mace in mine. Would have given it a 5 star but the material is just a tad bit thinner than I would have preferred. My previous bag felt like it was built like a tank. This has the feel of more a nice armored vehicle. I'm sure it can take a beating and last a good long time. I got 7 years out of my other bag before I finally gave in and bought its replacement. I would think this can handle the same. The bottom protection panel is also adequate, but I would have like a beefier bottom material if at all possible. One thing that this could benefit from would be a stow away rain fly that could cover the whole pack. If your going to carry your life around you want it to be dry right? The only other modification I would have liked and will make eventually is a chest strap to buckle the two shoulder straps together. If anything changes I'll let you know. For the price point I am very happy thus far. Been using this for several months now and truly do like it. On a scale of 1-100 I'd give it a 90. Beefier material would have given it a 100. A rainfly would have earned it serious extra points. I'd buy this again and recommend it to others for sure!

This is a great backpack for its longevity, quality build, size, and design. -Build/Longevity: I have owned this backpack for three years. In those three years I have used this backpack everyday to go to and from school (five days a week with a laptop and books in it), for hiking, and for travel. I travel a lot and use budget airlines, which means carry-on and no checked luggage (to save money). This thing has survived the clothes, toiletries, books, electronics, and the rigors of air travel (being stuffed under seats, in the overhead, in trunks, out in the woods, etc.). -Size/Design: I own a 17.3 inch laptop (Vaio VPCF2290x) and it fits with room to spare. The pockets are great for storing many different types of things: books, clothes, groceries, tools, etc. -Quality: I have put this backpack through its paces and it has never let me down. Heavy loads, outdoors (hiking, beach, etc.), planes, and so on. This thing laughs at 5 liters of liquid (I had to carry groceries in this). -Comfort: the pads on the back are a nice touch and the straps don't dig into your shoulders even when fully loaded. -Self-Repair: After three years you would expect things to experience some wear and tear. There are only three parts of this backpack that have experienced significant wear and tear and it was negligible on it doing its job. I have included pictures: the plastic part of the handle broke in two; part of the seam came undone on one of the straps; It came apart where two parts are joined on one of the straps. It was an easy repair job: needle and thread. Overall this is a very durable backpack and I would highly recommend it.

Úplně bombovej batoh a hlavně prostornej.

Ótima. Foi presente para meu filho, porém a minha, igual a esta, aniversariou 10 anos, linda, firme, forte e atualíssima.

The best bag ever, As expected, gives complete protection to your laptop and other accessories. Lots space & holds on your back firmly.

値段を考えると躊躇しますが 元を十分とるぐらい年数使いました 流石にボロボロになってきたので再度購入しました 一つ目のものは糸のほつれが見られましたが 今回購入したのは問題なかったです 使いやすいバックです

Şuan kullandığım Targus çantanın kalitesinde değildi. İade ettim.
