Best bag I have owned

— Javier R. (5/5)

Great Rucksack

"I had been struggling to find the right bag or case for my daily business routine and failing miserably. I decided to try this Briggs and Riley rucksack and loved it immediately. Really well made and I can fit everything I need into it without it feeling bulky or looking 'stuffed'. Plus it looks really smart!"

— Julian S. (5/5)

Very professional looking.

"I use it for mainly for work. Then maybe for short flight trips. the front pocket holds my small stanley neatley. I would not dare put important items in the RFID protected pocket, I feel it is too accessible to third parties."

— Noli V. (5/5)

Exactly right.

"Compact, attractive, well-made. It'll take a few trips to figure out how to optimize the many options with this bag. Really do expect this backpack to last a lifetime."
