I have searched for quite a while to find a functional professional work bag. I work in an outpatient clinic and also a hospital and need a functional sturdy bag to transport my laptop, clipboard and assorted other items easily. The straps are long enough to easily carry on the shoulder even with a winter coat on. It stands up on its own fairly well but does fall over some. Huge main compartment with zipper close keeps all of my contents contained. Separate slot for my 16" laptop that has velcro strap to close. I keep a water bottle and umbrella in the main comparment as well. One large pocket on outside with two smaller pockets on the other side. Very functional bag that looks expensive! I have gotten so many compliments on it!! I think it will hold up well and last a long time! I have carried it for 3 weeks so far and absolutely love it!
