Apex Compact Backpack - 16L Premium Laptop Backpack - Ergonomic & Water Resistant - Designed for Work and Travel

I love this bag - it feels great on, has lots of compartments inside the main body, plus a separate section for my laptop which fits in perfectly. On top of that there's slots for a water bottle, and a zip for my passport at the front. The pads on the back make it really comfortable to wear too - I find the compact size is perfect for my 5'2" frame. As always there are no flashing logos - I've been buying Troubadour bags for years, and this one does not disappoint.

Despite its compact 16L size the storage is impressively well-organized, featuring a padded laptop compartment and discreet pockets for essentials. This backpack blends style and efficiency, making it a great option for work and for using while travelling to add essentials! This is our second purchase as my wife took my first bag!

I just purchased this in green, and am loving it. Super convenient bag, with lots of helpful compartments to organise my things. Love the fact that it’s waterproof. One thing I didn’t notice at first that I find particularly helpful is the zip-up pocket on the shoulder strap, which I use to keep my phone and keys. Would 100% recommend the bag as it’s a perfect size for work and also for travel. Some people might recommend the larger size, but I find the compact is definitely big enough.

This is my second apex compact! By far the most comfortable bag I've ever owned. Nice to see the new features in the upgraded model, especially the easy-access phone pocket. Bag fits perfectly on a luggage handle and looks fantastic on!

The price is absolutely disgusting and a complete waste of money!

I really wanted to like this backpack. It has a really good set of compartments and the passport pouch in the shoulder strap can be useful. The laptop compartment is very snug for a 16" MacBook Pro, but it works. However, and this was a major selling point, it is not waterproof. Got caught in a shower and the laptop compartment got soaked! Therefore, I cannot recommend this bag and had to return mine.

I love this bag even for the price. I know the price is steep but the quality is insanely good and it is comfortable. I would say the quality equates the price. This one is a smaller backpack, it can probably fit a 13in laptop but it will be a snug fit - so anything bigger definitely won't fit. I usually travel with just an 11in iPad pro and that fits perfectly fine. It can holds a light jacket and a water bottle on the inside (and some snacks) but it would be difficult to fit a whole outfit. I do think the water bottle holders on the side don't really hold a water bottle. They are pretty small and tight. Sliding it under an airplane seat leaves plenty of foot room because it is a compact bag. I used to travel with a standard size backpack and the under-seat storage always left it hanging out a little, taking up my foot space, but this one does not. It is a little stiff but I acquaint that to the newness. If you are looking for a compact, stylish, work/ travel backpack - then this is probably for you (if you are willing to pay the high price)

C’est un sac de belle qualité et solide. Ja reçu de beaux commentaires sur mon sac. La version compact est serrée alors mieux vaut bien lire les dimensions. Je le recommande pour les personnes qui se déplacent avec peu de chose et qui voyagent léger. Seul petit défaut: la poche pour la bouteille d’eau est petite même pour une bouteille standard.

Ein Rucksack für do viel Geld, nur weil er in der NY Times beschrieben wurde? Mein Mann nutzt ihn jetzt seit 3 Wochen und ist begeistert von der Funktionalität und Qualität.

Perfect size. I’m 5’1 and can’t stand all the unused space of regular sized backpacks. Wish it wasn’t so expensive, but man, it definitely seems worth it so far. The color is my absolute favorite which was a nice surprise. Fits my 14ish laptop and accessories plus small randoms. The picture is this backpack next to my current one. So happy about the size.

I love the backpack, it looks chic and has pretty big space. However I find it overpriced for its quality, I found the first flaw right after receiving it. Not what I would expect from a backpack at this price. Probably not worth the price but still a good product
