TUMIAlpha Bravo Search Backpack - Laptop Backpack for Men & Women - Backpack for Work & Travel - 17.0" X 14.0" X 8.3" - Black

Absolutely! Here’s a longer, polished Amazon-style review for the TUMI Alpha Bravo Search Backpack that highlights its premium quality while justifying the price:I hesitated at first because of the price, but after using the TUMI Alpha Bravo Search Backpack, I can honestly say it’s worth every penny. From the moment I unboxed it, the build quality stood out—durable ballistic nylon, premium zippers, and well-thought-out compartments that make this bag both stylish and highly functional.The laptop compartment is well-padded and secure, easily fitting my 15” MacBook with room to spare. The interior organization is excellent, with plenty of pockets for cords, accessories, pens, and even a hidden water bottle holder that tucks away neatly. I especially appreciate the Add-A-Bag sleeve, which slides perfectly over my suitcase handle when I travel.It’s also surprisingly comfortable to wear, even when fully packed. The padded shoulder straps and breathable back panel make it ideal for daily commuting, air travel, or even just running errands around the city.Yes, it’s on the expensive side—but if you’re looking for a professional-grade backpack that will last for years, this one delivers on quality, design, and performance. TUMI nailed it again.

Another excellent backpack by Tumi! I already have an older Alpha Bravo backpack which I still use from time to time, but I needed a larger capacity backpack so I got this one. It did not disappoint! Great for travel and it is much improved in terms of design, including the location and size of compartments. Quality with Tumi is always superb!

Ok... so, I got this bag to replace my 6 years old Victorinox Lexicon Professional Bellevue 15, which is also a top-tear premium bag.In my review I'll mainly compare it to the Victorinox, and share my experience with the TUMI search so far (only EDC for a month+).General:SIZE - Similar size, but slightly bigger than the Victorinox - As I never tried the TUMI Search before buying, I had only pictures as a reference... The Search looks bigger in pics than in real life which was my main concern. But it truly isn't that big, and not much bigger than the Victorinox.Materials:Fabric - although the Search has TUMI's ballistic nylon, also the Victorinox has a very durable ballistic nylon which seems a little thicker. Only time will tell if the Search will hold on "as new" like the Victorinox (hopefully).Zippers - Search has "lighter" and much more easy to open (easily one handed) than the Victorinox which has more "heavy duty" zippers, but harder to manipulate. I hope that the Search zippers will hold on years ahead like the Victorinox.Organization - TUMI's Search is much much better in the pocket layout than the Victorinox, more traditional but much more practical and spacious (at least 5 liters more than the Victorinox) - it has more inside pockets for organization, significantly bigger side pockets and overall larger space for storage. For my needs the Search is just perfect in this term.Also the inside fabric material in the Tumi is nicer.Weight distribution - I had both bags with the same equipment (Dell XPS 13 laptop, iPad mini, mouse, USB hub, cables pouch, wallet, business cards, several key chains, sunglasses in a case) and the Search weight distribution is better, and more convenient to carry.Looks & Design - its a very subjective matter, and I like both. But the Search is more conservative and clean looking, while the Victorinox is more "innovative" / different. The Victorinox has leather handles and accents which I like and whish the Search also had. The Search external top pocket has no structure support which is a con, so I kept the original TUMI packing material and still had spare space to store items internally, but this should be changed in the future model design.Delivery & Packing - One of the quickest deliveries overseas I had from Amazon (Zappos), and the packing was top level. The bag arrived in 100% condition in a large box (no gift box, just a regular box).Unfortunately I didn't have the option to personalize it on purchase process via Amazon which could be great.To summarize my review -Pros:- Beautiful clean design- Excellent organization layout- Spacious- Great weight distribution and carrying convenience- Perfect size for EDC ( much to spare) and probably for travel (haven't tested it yet)- Smooth and easy to use zippers (durability yet to be proven years ahead)- Excellent packing and extremely quick delivery overseas (Amazon via Zappos)Cons:- Ballistic nylon - thinner than expected and compared to my Victorinox bag - but durability yet to be proven years to come (and may prove not to be a con)- No option for personalization at purchase process on AmazonBottom line:Highly recommended !

My husband used to carry a soft leather bag for his laptop and other items. He switched to this back pack and loves it so much more. He would give this item a big thumbs up.

Tumi quality is hard to beat, but item missing a few basic features like a key loop, to easily connect your keys to inside.
