APC Leather Backpack on Wheels

Rating

I love this bag. It is very well made and roomy enough to hold my laptop, several school books, lunch, and other items. The 2 large divided sections, and smaller zipper pockets on the front and sides help keep this grad student a little more organized. The handle is long enough, and the backpack feature lets me carry the heavy bag down the stairs if I don't want to wait for the elevator. I shopped around extensively before deciding on this bag, and I am definitely pleased with this purchase.

I bought this as a gift for an Intern, as they have to carry lots of books and things from one place to another. Was very happy with the leather and it seems to be well-made. The telescopic handle played a big part in purchasing this item, it is long enough to roll comfortably. The price was great, as I did shop around. Very happy with this purchase.

This is a terrific rolling backpack for the money. It is spacious and well made. Double wheels on each side make it easy to roll and stable when standing upright. It would make a perfect gift for any student.

This is a rather large and spacious backback. The wheels make it very versatile when you have both books and laptop to carry. The side pockets are good for keys and cell phones. Note: larger laptops will be a tighter squeeze, and will require a cushion case of their own (one 15" case included).

I purchased 2 of these backpacks for my kids to use for school. I got tired of having to buy a new backpack every year because of the nylon bags getting torn up, the plastic "feet" cracking and not keeping the pack upright, and the wheels sticking. I am hoping that the leather will prove to be more durable and will last for more than a school year. So far, I am very pleased with my purchase. The packs are large enough to hold all the heavy books and lunch boxes, etc. and they roll with ease. Other reviews I read mentioned having to cut the optional shoulder straps off to prevent them from dragging. Not so. They can be easily tucked in and kept out of the way. Simply tuck the straps in where the handle pulls out, unzip the bottom and pull the straps through. Some binding of the longer straps may be necessary, but once you zip the bottom back up, the straps are concealed with no cutting involved! If you are considering this backpack and are still on the fence, jump off and make the purchase. You will NOT be sorry!
