The Ricardo Beverly Hills flight essentials travel backpack is well constructed from high-quality materials and offers ample storage. The soft, comfortable straps with securely on the shoulders, making it easy to carry even fully packed. The zipper pulls are easy to grip, and the pockets open and close smoothly. I highly recommend this backpack.
I love that this is so lightweight and have so many pockets. I was able to fit the items pictured in there with no issue. The quality of this backpack is pretty good - good zippers and material. I also love that there is a top carry handle as well as a pass-through back if I want to put this on my suitcase. The shoulder straps are adjustable and comfortable as well. This is a great size backpack!

This bag is the most comfortable backpack I've ever carried. It's safe for carryon size- but will easily hold a full size laptop and then some. It has plenty of side pockets to store & stuff & and has held up extremely well. I use it for work daily. If you are trying to estimate if it's a good fit for you- I am a small person. It looks a lot smaller when my husband carries it.
This backpack is great for traveling. It is compact and has many pockets for hiking extra storage. That straps are comfortable and adjustable. It is great quality and I am so excited to use it on my next trip!
This bag was perfect for my recent work trip! It is very spacious without being bulky. I fit my 16"漧aptop, an 11" tablet, a portable second monitor still on the box, two notebooks, and various papers all inside the main compartment. The outside pockets held, my charger, mouse, water bottle, pens, and even some snacks. The closures have great ergonomic zipper pulls making them easy to close and open. The straps were cushioned enough to provide support but not extra bulk!
I love it because it's very spacious, cute, and very elegant. Perfect for carrying my Mac when I leave the house. It seems to be good quality, so I think it will last me a long time. It's very comfortable to carry.
This back pack is great! It's very durable and high quality. The back and straps are cushioned nicely to make it comfortable. It's relatively light so doesn't add extra weight. Fits nicely in luggage and most importantly all of the pockets and compartments are thoughtfully designed. A slot for your laptop, spots for pens and cords, side pockets that's unzip to fit water bottles.
I'm in love! What a fantastic backpack not just only for every day use but also for longer travel and trips! I like the sleek design of the backpack and how lightweight it is.
So stylish and convenient. I was surprised how much room there is inside of this bag. This is the perfect travel bag. It seems really well made as well!
Very sleek and clean design! The backpack has quite a few components and pockets which you can put multiple kinds of stuff in it. The size is perfect for the carryon luggage cabin. Straps are wide enough to give more support when carrying it. I am seeing myself use it a lot in the upcoming trips.

Its lightweight build and 23L capacity make it easy to carry while still fitting essentials. Though not the most rugged it balances style and function well for casual travelers

It feels light too! The padding on the straps are built perfect and will sit on your shoulders comfortably. The material is easy to clean! It also has a 3 year warranty- which is perfect!!!!
The durability of this book bag is great from the leather straps to the black woven material. I did receive this free from influenster for my honest opinion and I definitely recommend this book bag!
This bag is worth the hype and price. It has so many pockets and divots it's very useful. The straps are thick for a heavier load and the clips are big which means it can carry a heavier load. It's durable and fashionable.

Good quality material. Expected it to be a little larger.
This a great backpack for traveling especially if you carry a lot of electronics with you. It has the perfect slot to fit a laptop up to 16 inches. The material seems very durable and it has a sleek look to it.
The backpack is for my husband. He’s only used it twice now. He thinks the pockets on the front should be reversed. The smaller one at the bottom should be on top and the larger one on bottom (this I agree with). He also feels like it should only have one handle ( I don’t agree with that ). He likes the sleeve that fits over the suitcase handle. This is the 4th item we have purchased from RBH and are very pleased with the quality. I think in time he will learn to love it. We do travel a lot.
