Carhartt 23L Single-Compartment Backpack Carhartt/Brown One Size

I love this backpack. I spent like a week researching different ones on Amazon. I recently decided to start carrying a BP instead of a purse because I am sick of carrying that crap on my shoulder and most purses are so inefficient. I take my BP mainly to work and the gym. It is my little survival bag. I can put everything in there and not worry about it getting lost or buried at the bottom. Now, the things I love about this BP: It is minimalist and simple. There are SO many backpacks out there but most of them are way too complicated. Too many pockets, too many straps, too many bungee cord thingies. Most look like they are either prepared for an exhaustive trip upon Mt. Kilimanjaro or like neon took a dump all over them. I wanted something straightforward and not flashy. I love working out and buying athletic wear but the thought of carrying a Nike or UA BP around to work or in general was not appealing. I didn't want to look like I was perpetually preparing for my next swim meet. I also LOVE Herschel travel bags but they are a little too pricey. This pack has a similar look to the Herschel without the pricey tag. This pack is sturdy and durable. It has to be or it isn't Carhartt. I knew when I bought this I was investing in a stable product. The black color is simple and classy. There is not a lot of branding or huge labels on it which I LOVE. The straps are perfect width, size, and don't take up my whole shoulder, even though I am a female. It has a weatherproof bottom so I can sit it anywhere and the outside is also plenty weatherproof, IMO. There are two main zipper compartments and one small above the outside one. This is where I store my phone. The smaller zipper compartment has two net pockets for smaller items, and a latch for any keys, knives, whatever. The main compartment has a lap top pocket which is useless to me right now but I do like to stick my wallet down in there to keep it separate. The one thing I would change would be adding a side pocket so you can put your phone like right on the side and reach back to get it out instead of having to take off the whole thing to get it out of the little back pocket. TLDR: simple, sturdy, and classic backpack with a great price tag from a trusted brand.

Excellent, exactly what I was looking for. I travel quite a bit for work and got tired of carrying a typical lap top back pack. Way to big with too many pockets to loose stuff in. This is the perfect size for my 14 inch laptop, iPad, couple notebooks, headphones and a sweat shirt. Will fit more, that’s just all I need it for. I can also cram it into my carry on luggage when flying with airlines that only allow one piece of luggage. This thing is built like a tank and is perfect just like all my Carhartt jackets, I really don’t believe I will ever have to buy another bag again.

Altogether an awesome backpack. perfect for my needs. Laptop sleeve bottom is up from the floor of the bag and has an extra little pocket + a velcro closure at the top -so computer doesn't get bumped too hard if backpack is dropped. The only thing I wish were different is the direction of the front pocket zipper. I am right-handed. When I swing the bag onto my right shoulder to get something out of the small pouch, things fall out so I have to take the bag completely off to open it. Otherwise, it's great! Light rain/snow resistant. Roomier than it looks. I wouldn't pack it full of books because it doesn't have a strap in front to help balance the weight. laptop + 2 binders + 1-2 textbooks + water bottle + snacks all fit!

This is my second Carhartt backpack. The first I gave to a friend who was moving out of state and so I decided to buy myself a replacement. The material is durable and the entire backpack is nicely designed. I enjoy that it’s not light weight like a regular “book bag” but also that it’s not bulky or heavy. Worth the money.

I like the overall quality and comfort but wish it had more internal pockets in the front pouches. Also, I would like for the velcro enclosed internal pouch to be deeper and for it to have an external pouch to hold a nalgene or other large water bottle.

I have had the backpack for a few days now, the build quality is great and extremely sturdy. it was slightly smaller than i was expecting but don't get me wrong it is still plenty big enough for a 13 inch laptop,jacket,umbrella and all other random items i throw in there. the zippers are quality and the gold is a nice touch, also the padded back and shoulder straps make it more comfortable aswell. i have no complaints.

They sent me black and I decided to keep it. Great quality.

I use this for school, work, and hiking. I've had it for a year and a half now and have noticed no wear and tear. Strong fabric, comfortable. As others have noted, it's a bit annoying that the outer pocket is single-zippered, because it means you have to open it from the side and things fall out.

使ってるとポケットの少なさが不便に感じます。 今まで使ってたリュックはサイドにポケットがあったのでそこにサッ、とスマホなどををいれていました。 それに慣れていたのもあってか、少し物足りないです。 それ以外は満足してます！！！！！！ サイズも女の子でもちょうどいいと思います！！

Not had any problems with it, good run around backpack, useful for carrying everything for either work or leisure

It's quite durable and you can throw it around without worrying about wrecking it. The bottom has a durable, waterproof membrane so it gives me a lot of freedom as to what I do with it. What I mean to say is, I don't have to worry about it, it is just always fine. Size is a little small, I carry a big binder and several small books. If I buy another backpack I'll go a size up. That being said, I really do love the design and it has served me very well so far.

Unisce confort e praticità

Esta muy padre la mochila, me gustó mucho, se ve que los materiales de fabricación son de primera, superó mis expectativas, por el precio que pague yla calidad de la mochila, quedó muy complacido.
