Timbuk2 PROOF Backpack Black/Gunmetal Reviews
8 of 8 people found the following review helpful: Perfect for weekends, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Timbuk2 Proof�Backpack (Sports) I really like this backpack. I own a 15" Macbook Pro, and it safely houses it with about as much padding as my previous InCase zipper bag. The front stores about a weekend's worth of clothes (tightly), and unless your toiletries are just a toothbrush and a couple travel size bottles, it won't hold much else. Overall though, it suits my needs and looks great without being bulky. I'm a 5'6" female with regular build, and I don't feel as though it looks too tall on me.Like the first reviewer, I was also disappointed in the color. It is not bright blue or even regular blue. It's definitely navy, but I still intend to keep it. If you're a fan of Timbuk2 like I am, (barring color) it's yet another great product. Lots of compartments, safe laptop housing, and adequate space for a quick weekend trip. 8 of 9 people found the following review helpful: Great backpack, By This review is from: Timbuk2 Proof�Backpack (Sports) I just got this bag in the mail today so this is just an initial review until its been tried and tested some more. My first impression is that it is a durable backpack. It easily fits my rather large 15x10 inch laptop in a nice padded velvet pocket. In fact I really see no need to put an extra case around your laptop when you have it in this pack. Even with my laptop it still has plenty of room to spare. I can easily fit three days worth of clothes and bathroom supplies in the bag with the laptop (I'm a male by the way haha).Pros: 1. Durable 2. Great laptop compartment 3. Light 4. Fits well on shoulders Cons: 1. Price (a little on the expensive side) 2. Color (I ordered the blue and black, and the blue is definitely a more navy/dark blue than the one in the picture) 3. Does not have a sternum strap (I think one would add a lot to the bag) Note: I am 5'8" and the bag fits me well. However, I would not recommend it to...

The pack is taller than most, but also thinner and less deep. That keeps it from shifting around on your back as you bike. A sternum or waist strap would help even more, so I'm knocking off one star for not including either. I suppose you could buy a sternum strap separately.Note that this pack is not deep enough to hold a ton of school books, but you probably would not want to bike with that load anyway. I'm average height and on the skinny side and this pack fits me well. If you're a shorter guy or average sized woman, this pack may be too tall for you. The laptop pocket is nicely padded and has a separate zipper access on the side (a nice feature). The Amazon description says the pack fits 17 inch laptops, but Timbuk2 hang tag advertises 15 inches. I suppose some larger laptops will fit, but some won't. The U-lock pocket on the side of the pack is a real nice feature. It holds pretty securely, but an... Read more |
