Reviews

I love this bag!!!

"What a great laptop bag that could double as a purse! I absolutely love this bag! The quality and storage capacity is amazing! The material is durable but beautiful! My laptop and all my work needs fit perfectly! Best thing I've reviewed yet!"

— Maggiej33 (5/5)

Strong and well made

"I received this gorgeous bag. It's very well made. Lot's of storage for book's or whatever you would like to use it for. Side pockets for my phone. I take the bus from time to time. The straps are adjustable. Lot's of room to adjust to any size. Material is great and appears water resistant. Thank you for the opportunity to test your bag."

Beautiful but could be tech roomier

"I received the Briggs and Riley U-Zip backpack in Olive free in exchange for my honest review. The color is a beautiful gray green. With tan handles the color appears green but with gray branding the color pulls gray. It is gender neutral and elegant. The nylon material seems incredibly sturdy. The pockets and capacity size are perfect for a personal item. It has a RFID pocket on the back and it has a luggage handle slot. My only complaint is that it claims to fit most 13 laptops. I tried a 13.5 one and it doesn't even come close. So while it might fit a 13 laptop the fit would be insanely tight. I'd prefer a bit more wiggle room in this pocket for me personally. Fitting up to a 15 would be more versatile."

Cute and professional backpack.

"The durabilty of material and storage capacity is great! The comfort and design is spot on! The versatility is also good I'll be using it as my teacher bag."

— Mencardes123 (5/5)

Perfect Travel Companion

"This bag is small but mighty! It has a wonderfully luxurious feel and so many pockets to organize. There are side pockets front pockets pockets inside the pockets. The design is on point. I'm able to fit my iPad notebook snacks for the kids a change of clothes water bottles and not feel like working mom trekking off to sports practice. It gives me room on the airplane to actually put my feet under my seat and the outside cleans off so easily. Definitely my new favorite travel companion. My diva of a 10 year old tried to steal it the second it was unboxed so I have a sneaky suspicion that I'll be buying another of these soon."

— Christines333 (5/5)

Backpack for life

"I will never need to buy another backpack again with this beauty! Impeccable craftsmanship with quality materials and the attention to detail is stunning. There is an intuitive and secure place for everything one would need while traveling or just on the go with easy access pockets for organization and sturdy zippers. I love that it has a lifetime warranty but judging by the superior quality I won't need to use it for many years to come. Looks tasteful while still being very utilitarian. Comfortable to wear and even has little leather bands to secure the straps so they won't dangle as well as a band to enable you to slip it over the handle of a rolling suitcase and carry that way. The U-shaped main pocket makes finding things a breeze. Absolutely perfect!"

The perfect travel backpack for me

"Last year I purchased the B&R "Traveler Backpack" and used it along with my B&R "Essential 22" Carry-on Spinner" for a 1 week vacation to Grand Cayman. Of course, I packed each piece to the fullest. The Traveler Backpack held so much that it was far too heavy and bulky for me to comfortably carry. Lacking an alternative at the time, I used it anyway. (For reference: I am 5'6", 142 lbs and female) I then purchased the "U-Zip Backpack" to use for my 2026 vacation. This backpack was perfect! At only 10 lbs, when fully packed, it comfortably held all of my essentials, including a light sweater. It is comfortable to wear, beautifully made, not too many pockets and the zippers open & close smoothly for easy access. I will be using this backpack for all of my travel adventures!"

— Margaret D. (5/5)

Perfect size

"I’m fairly petite at 5’3” and this bag fits me perfectly. It’s also the perfect mix of functional and professional. Practical enough to fit all the necessities when traveling (which I was worried about) and elevated enough to use for work. Great quality too. So happy with this purchase."

— Stephen G. (5/5)

Great travel bag holding small essential items.

"Easy access with pocket organizers. Great for travel for holding small items. It is not a lot of rooms once large items occupied in main compartment since it is round shape. I do loved the bag. Very well made. I used this bag for holding small essential items. And front pocket and back side pocket were very helpful. Side bottle pocket would recommended using smaller bottle. I have big bottle. It doesn’t work well. Overall. Great purchase."

— JO T. (4/5)

Great purchase

"Great purchase! Plenty of room. And I love that it slides right on the handle of my other suitcases."

— Margaret R. (5/5)
