    Attractive, comfortable, apparently durable backpack!

    I have been using the Thule Crossover backpack for about two months now, and I am absolutely thrilled with the investment. Prior to the Thule, I'd used various briefcase-style cases, and the switch has been well worth it. My 17" MBP slides perfectly and quickly into the cushioned compartment and is a pleasure to tote around town. Even fully loaded, with the MBP, several books and all the fixings, the pack is comfortable for all-day wear, and looks sharp all the while.

    While I don't know that the "crush proof" compartment is worthy of such a lofty title, it's certainly burly, and establishes its utility when used to store glasses, an ipod, fruit, and/or whatever you want to be sure to have easy access to.

    The only trouble I've had so far is figuring out what to do with the power cable. There is not a great on board solution for this, but I get by with the cord in the smallest front pocket. A downside, but certainly offset by the bag's overall utility and construction.

    I can't say enough about this bag. It's so comfortable, sharp, and easy to take along that I try to find excuses to take my MBP out on the town just to wear it. Seriously.

    The quality, durability, and design features of this backpack are amazing. I have owned many backpacks before, but nothing like this. I would defiantly recommend; I think this is one of the best backpacks in the market today.

    I was considering one of the more traditional "mac bags" by incase, but I decided to be a different - and, man, am I happy that I did. This bag is great!!! I've only ever known Thule for car racks and car roof containers, but it seems as if it wasn't that hard of a gap for them to bridge into bags. I look forward to see if they'll make other accessories, because I'm sure that those products will be well made and of great quality.

    I really liked the Bag when I first saw it at the iStore.

    Really felt sturdy and it has a very durable Construction. I have a 15" MacBook Pro and an iPad along with other Mac Accessories which I carry daily to Work.

    Would highly recommend this Bag!!

    One modification

    This is a great backpack. It has room for lots of things. The one thing I would change is the chest straps. I love the idea but they need to be able to adjust more. For women with a larger chest the straps hit in a very awkward place. If they could be adjusted about an inch more both ways it would be five stars

    Wonderful addition to my MBP

    This pack has a closed cell foam lined sleeve that fits my 17 inch MBP perfectly. In addition there is room for my paperwork as well as all of my accessories, including my Bose headphones. This pack is very well constructed and I like the fact that it doesn't look like a computer case. Highly recommended.

    Excellent backpack

    Very high quality and fairly light. The sunglasses and iphone/ipod area is a nice touch. Build quality is excellent, no need to regurgitate other people's reviews.

    One thing is the water bottle area won't hold a Kleen Kanteen as pictured in the description. Maybe something larger...

    Just got the bag yesterday and the materials are simply outstanding, all the compartments are perfect and the padding for my macbook pro with retina is more than enough.

    I love this backpack --- material quality, construction, versatility. The SafeZone protects my sunglasses, camcorder, digital camera.... and is the place for my gadgets at airport security checks. The "elegant ruggedness" goes well with either casual or smart business attire.

    bought this bag one months ago and it is very light and has lots of rooms/pockets for everyday use. Very comfortable to wear and it has a handy room for Sunglasses and iPhone

    e.g
    The lockable, crush-proof SafeZone compartment protects your iPhone, sunglasses and other fragile gear—and is removable when you need additional spac

    This is what I'm talking about. This is a product that is actually worth $100. After unpacking and filling this thing up with all my stuff... (MacBook Pro, Avid Mbox 2 Pro, etc...) it holds up and looks great doing it. So far no problems and is impressive right out of the gate.

    This is an amazing backpack. More like a pair of louboutins! This is the tranz-am of computer backpacks. I know that it is a little pricey for a backpack, but TRUST ME it IS worth it! EXTREMELY strong and durable lining and zippers. Not cheaply made! WORTH EVERY PENNY!

    I never realized how nice this bag was until somebody stole it from me, it made my 15" Macbook Pro feel incredibly light and comfortable and safe. I am definitely buying another one to replace it.

    I had been looking for the perfect backpack. After buying a few that were horrible, I decided on this bag because of all of the reviews. This backpack is awesome for traveling. I have traveled with this bag and I walked around Puerto Rico for 4 days with this backpack. I had my Macbook Air and iPad, and phone and all of the cords. I also had an umbrella in one of the outside pockets and a bottle of water in the other outside pocket and I would completely forget this bag was on my back. I am so happy with this bag.

    This bag is nice-looking, high quality, light, portable, and has lots of useful pockets. The only drawback is the crush-resistant compartment, which tends to get in the way a lot. If you take that out, then the fabric that held it in place before is too fragile.
