Why did I wait so long to buy this!

Amazing! I have always bought Louis Vuitton for my travel needs and the B&R bags are just heaven to use. I bought many items and love them all. This backpack is perfect!

Love it, needs to be 15% bigger

I love the design and it’s exactly what I wanted. But it’s smaller than I wanted. It’s tight to get my laptop in it, tight to get over my roller bag handle and the front pocket is super small and hard to fill when the backpack is full

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.

Carry on 2" too big

I love my luggage and bought a whole set, but the airlines won't let me bring my carry-on on because they say it's 2 inches too tall. So sure enough broke out the tape measures and it is to tell. !

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.

Great purchase

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

Great bag for my wife

Bought this as a gift for my wife. She wanted a smaller under-seat travel bag. High quality build and feel.

Backpack review

I bought this as a Christmas present to replace my wife’s travel backpack. She loves it! It’s the right size to store under an airline seat, yet still big enough to be useful. The design and pockets are well thought out. And as with all of the Briggs & Riley products, the materials and top quality and she loves the color.

Best Backpack on the market! I have two!

This backpack is the best! I'm so glad you brought it back! I have another one just like it in tan, that I've had for several years and use it all the time. It is great for traveling and fits everything I need to have close by and fits under the seat while flying. Additionally, the straps are padded and very comfortable to wear. I also love the outer compartments: one in front where I keep my phone and other items, and two on each side. I use one for my water bottle and keys in the other. The center is roomy: I can fit a change of clothes if needed and there is also a compartment for my electronics. This backpack is beautiful, classy, well-made, and extremely durable. I highly recommend this backpack! Thank you!

Great bag but tight slip strap

Really well constructed with plenty of room. Samsung 13in tablet fits perfectly. Only thing B&R needs to chage, is the slip strap that fits over the carry-on handle. It is too small when the backpack has items in it. I have an older B&R roller carry-on and it is really hard to get the back pack off the handle. It catches on the plastic pieces of the handle.

Perfect and long searched for

I’ve sort of become a travel-bag collector simply because it’s always felt I was looking for a unicorn. I’ve liked the concept of backpacks but they always were awkwardly sized and heavy. This changed that. The various pockets, very slim profile, yet roomy, easily accessible opening made my first trip with it feel like a breeze. It’s perfectly proportioned even when full. Stands up on its own. Easily slips over luggage handle. Comfortable to wear (truly!) and fit under a tiny airplane seat. Extremely sturdy feeling, well made. I was reluctant about the price before ordering (even though I own other B&R pieces) but 1000% worth the purchase.

U-Zip Backpack

Not only is it well constructed like everything that Briggs & Riley makes, it is so incredibly well designed and organized. You can for more than you might have imagined, and everything is very accessible and thoughtfully arranged.
