This is my first Ogio product, although as a motocross fan I was long aware of the company as they sponsor many of the athletes. So far I am definitely impressed. The quality is very good, craftsmanship excellent. The color is even nicer in person as the gray/black looks sharp. First I will say that I did not get this for its laptop carrying ability, I got it for an everyday pack that I carry to work and anywhere I go. So it is with me pretty much daily. It has good capacity but is not a huge pack. It has a good variety of pouches. The laptop sleeve is roomy and if I do take my laptop anywhere I won't hesitate to use it. I did use it for folders and papers and it worked fine for that too. There is a long pouch on the LH side that works well to hold a water bottle. My 32oz Contigo barely fits in, but my 24oz fits easily, and I also fit 2 16oz bottles of Zico coconut water in there too with no issues. There are no external water bottle holders just that pouch, and I wish it was a little bigger for bigger water bottles but it is adequate for most. The front compartment has lots of space and organization options, and the main compartment is spacious. There is also a padded lower compartment which spans the entire width of the pack and can hold a decent amount. There are 2 other side pockets on the RH side, both are large enough for several smaller items. There are 2 smaller "media" pouches on the top, and both are quite small. I use the top one for my earbuds, and the bottom one for my phone charger. The only downside is that the lower small pouch hangs into the main compartment and sometimes gets in the way, I wish they'd tacked it back. But that is a nitpicking really, and that's the main thing about this pack. It is so good you have to nitpick to find something you don't like. What I like is that it has a lot of versatility you can find a place for everything. High marks for Ogio. Well done.
