WITZMAN Canvas Backpack Vintage Travel Backpack for Men Large Weekender Bag Daypack Convertible Shoulder Rucksack(A519-1 Brown)

Rate this bag, loads of storage and compartments to section out your clothing and other travel goodies. Had this on my back for a week around Europe. Very comfortable. Only drawback is that it isn't waterproof but it is very useful.

just buy it! srsly, awesome bag. I rammed this poor thing full of stuff for a weekend away. The contents were damned heavy and i kicked the cr@p out of it all over train stations, taxis, pavements, hotel rooms and luggage racks. Honestly, it looks like I never even took it out of the house ... It's a soft bag, no firm parts, no frame, no nonsense ... yet lots of options .... Buy it

I bought this bag to serve as my main travel bag. It ticks all the boxes for a One Bag carry on travelling style. There is a dedicated laptop pocket which fits my travel laptop, there are several exterior pockets which are decently sized for easy access to bits, though they're slightly smaller than I'd like. Being able to convert it from a backpack style to a suitcase / duffel style is handy when doing things like storing in overhead lockers or checking in. It means you don't have various backpack straps tangling up in things. The backpack straps are nicely padded and it's comfortable to wear. The waist strap is only ok. I wouldn't want to use it as a hiking pack, but it's really not that kind of travel bag. It also has side straps to cinch it closed and tighten it up. Whilst removing the laptop when the bag is full is easy enough, it can be a little tricky getting it back in if the bag is very full, which can be very very slightly annoying if you're pulling it out for security scans, but this is a minor nitpick and may be more due to having packed it slightly awkwardly.

I’ve used this bag for a few trips now and it’s been perfect for a couple of nights working away and room for my laptop and iPad. There is a lower strap that should go around your waste which I’ve never used so it just dangles down from the bag but no major drama.

This backpack looks great and is the ideal size for what I need.

While a bit pricey, the bag perfectly suited my need for a comfortable and versatile bag to use for a four day break. It fit more in than I expected from some of the reviews, and remained the perfect size for a carryon bag. I love the fact that you can hide the shoulder straps, but can then quickly use it as a rucksack when carrying it for longer distances. Overall I am really happy with my purchase.

I bought it for my long travel to Australia, NZ and Hong Kong and it performed very well as I could rotate between backpack for the flights and briefcase for business meetings. Perfection!

I really really wanted to like this backpack. Aesthetically, it looks amazing, and it is definitely a satisfying experience to walk through an airport or train station with it on. The material feels very nice and the straps are remarkably comfortable, even with a heavy cargo. However, form was very much prioritised over function in the design. The bottom external pocket has absolutely no depth, meaning it is almost impossible to fit anything in there that is thicker than a passport. The middle pocket, despite protruding slightly, still offers very little room, and is defeated by a medium-thick novel. The top pocket has the same depth as the bottom pocket but, for some reason, comes with excessive length, going down to the very bottom of the bag - thus, anything placed in there is immediately lost to the pull of gravity and, with such a narrow opening, is very difficult to fish out again, especially if the main compartment is already full. The main compartment is also quite impractical. It does have a number of internal dividers forming pockets along the inner walls, but they feel exceptionally flimsy, and also have no depth, limiting what can realistically be kept in them. The zip for the main compartment runs along one edge, which means that the compartment wall remains attached on three out of four sides at the best of times, restricting easy access. And the laptop pocket, such as it is - with no padding along any of the axes that may come into frequent contact with the ground, is on the opposite edge to the zip, thus complicating the laptop's extraction and replacement, especially when being attempted in a hurry at the airport security line. The most frustrating thing is how simple these problems would presumably have been to fix, and how they make an otherwise great bag a blooming fuss to use.

very usefull bag

J'adore ce sac! Ça ne fait que deux mois que je l'ai donc je ne peux pas encore m'exprimer pour la solidité mais il est vraiment pratique. Petit bémol sur l'ouverture principale du sac qui se fait sur la tranche. En soit ce n'est pas réellement un soucis mais comme la fermeture éclair ne s'ouvre pas jusqu'aux deux bords du sac, pour mettre un ordinateur 17 pouces, c'est un peu compliqué. Peut être qu'une augmentation de deux ou trois centimètres de l'ouverture annulerait ce problème.

I ordered this product for an upcoming trip overseas. It is the perfect carry-on size. I was able to try it out on a multi-state bus tour and it worked well. My laptop was protected and I had lots of room for clothing, toiletries and an extra pair of shoes. The newer nylon bags may be lighter, but this bag feels tough, like it can take the beating of long-distance travel. I recommend it.

I have been using it for a while, and I am very happy with it. It is comfortable even when packed, and seems to be very durable. The only thing I don't like is the ability to turn it into a duffel bag - which I never use - and the roll on top which is used for it, and which can't be removed. But it's not a big drawback, so I'd definitely recommend this backpack if you are considering it.

The bag has a lot of straps. You can carry it on your back, sling it across your shoulders, hold it in your hand... any way you want it. It's a bit excessive - there is a zippable cover just to cover up the back straps just in case you're carrying the bag in one of the twenty other ways. It has many pouches as well to carry all your laptops, pen, notebook etc. For use as a carry on for sightseeing journeys maybe the bag is not big enough. But for short business trips you can carry everything you need for 2-3 days in this sleek backpack. No airlines will have problem with this bag as a cabin bag. For one-bag sightseeing trips you'll do better with a lighter, bigger bag.
