Thule Construct Backpack - School, Work & Travel - Padded Laptop Sleeve - Internal Organizational Quick Access Front Pocket

I rarely write reviews, but I agree with the other reviewers- what a fantastic, well thought out bag. I’ve been using this backpack for work. I am a physician and I’m back in training in a rigorous specialty- which means I need pockets for essentials in case I unexpectedly have a bad on-call shift and have to spend hours in the hospital. I also wanted a bag that is durable and low maintenance since I travel in between different hospital sites (and let’s face it, hospitals floors are dirty!) This backpack checks all the boxes and then some. I got the 28L- not only does the bag feel super durable (the materials feel strong and the stitching looks reinforced), it has so many compartments for all of my things. I can comfortably carry my laptop (a 14 inch Lenovo), multiple chargers, notebooks/pens, a toiletry bag, protein bars/small Pyrex container, keys, and 26oz water bottle (on the side pocket) and still have plenty of room to spare- and it stays organized due to the different compartments and pockets. I love the padded/soft lined zipper compartment in the front of the bag where I can throw my phone/air pods/sunglasses and not worry about them getting scratched or damaged. The only potential issue with this bag is that it is a touch heavy- this isn’t a dealbreaker by any means, but if you’re looking to travel internationally with this bag (and travel to countries where there are very strict carry-on weight policies on their flights)- I feel like you’d lose a pound or two to the bag’s weight. For domestic travel though, this bag would be amazing (and it can be compressed using its side straps to fit under the seat if it isn’t fully loaded.) I think this backpack is going to be worth it’s price point already. I already own Thule hiking/camping bags that are holding up very well (both as checked-in bags and also having been out in the elements) which made me take a chance on this bag. I hope Thule keeps up their excellent quality/standards.

This backpack is great! it has just enough compartments, not too many and not too few. It also has a nice capacity at 28L, so I can really pack it full. It is strong and sturdy, the zippers and material are of good quality. And it also looks great! I highly recommend.

I purchased this for my daughter’s freshman year in college. She says it’s the perfect backpack - fits everything she needs, plenty of compartments, zippers like a dream, and is comfortable to carry.

I own a Thule carry on which I have loved using for years. This backpack does not disappoint. Great quality fabric, zippers, straps, and overall design. The backpack has more than enough storage to serve as a go to every day carry and a personal item on flights. Holds two laptops, my jacket and all my essentials. It also fits under the seat on a plane without eating up your leg room. I highly recommend this backpack. Last one you'll ever buy.

After reading dozens of reviews to find the perfect backpack for my 2021 16 inch M1 Macbook Pro with a SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro Case cover, I decided this Thule Construct Backpack was going to be a perfect match. And I was right. One other reviewer mentioned that he was able to fit his Lenovo Legion 5 Pro 16" without a problem. I went to the Lenovo's website and the dimensions of the Legion 5 Pro 16" are a bit bigger than my 16" M1 Macbook Pro. So I thought my Macbook should fit just fine with the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro Case I got for it. And it did! It really feels as if this Thule Construct backpack was specifically made for a Macbook Pro with a case on it. Take a look at the pictures to see for yourself. And Thule is guarantee of amazing high quality materials and construction. The blue color is also so professional, really 'business casual' vibe that is perfect to bring it to work. If you have a 16" Macbook Pro with a case / cover, this backpack will be absolutely perfect for you as well. I could not be happier with this find.

Fantastic quality - sturdy fabric, smooth zippers, well made. I planned to use the backpack as my personal item and tested it by loading what I normally take onboard. At first it seemed to be the perfect bag. Laptop area well padded and easy to access. Main compartment quite spacious. Lots of pockets for organization. The first problem I encountered was that my Bose headset almost but not quite fit in the clam shell. Not a deal breaker but it would have been nice if the pocket was just a 1/2” deeper. It felt very comfortable on my back but a sternum strap would have made it even better. The shoulder harnesses are nicely padded and the bag sat comfortably on my back. The deal breaker was the trolley strap. While it is nice and wide, going pretty much the width of the bag, there is a slight curvature to the bag which made it difficult to slide over the suitcase handle. This curvature probably had a lot to do with the comfort of the bag on my back. But one of my chief complaints with the backpack I am replacing has been the difficulty with loading and unloading it from my the top of my suitcase.

Just received it. Purchased 2 for my sons for college and they still look brand new. It's so well put together and durable, seems like it will last forever. Hope the same for mine. Their waterproofing also saved a son's laptop, so if needed hopefully mine will do the same. Love the design and the open pocket between top pocket and front pocket. We shall see.

Good solid construction. But others are better. It feels like a well made average backpack. Lacks chest strap. Good laptop sleeve. No charge cord passthrough. Bell bottom shape stands up on its own, but means you have to dig deeper to find things. I’d prefer something more rectangular overall. The Crossover 2 seems like it would be a better design but costs twice as much.

Ik heb onlangs de Thule rugzak met laptopcompartiment aangeschaft, en ik ben er ontzettend tevreden over. Deze rugzak combineert stijl, functionaliteit en duurzaamheid op een indrukwekkende manier. Pluspunten: Uitstekende bescherming: Het speciaal ontworpen laptopcompartiment biedt uitstekende bescherming voor mijn laptop (tot 15,6 inch) dankzij de gevoerde binnenkant en stevige structuur. Comfortabel draagcomfort: De gewatteerde schouderbanden en het ademende rugpaneel zorgen voor een comfortabel draaggevoel, zelfs bij langere reizen. Slimme indeling: Naast het laptopcompartiment zijn er diverse vakken en organisatiemogelijkheden voor accessoires, documenten, en persoonlijke spullen. Alles blijft netjes op zijn plek. Duurzaam materiaal: Zoals je van Thule mag verwachten, voelt het materiaal stevig en waterafstotend aan, wat ideaal is voor dagelijks gebruik en reizen. Minpunten: Prijs: De rugzak zit in het hogere prijssegment, maar de kwaliteit rechtvaardigt het grotendeels. Beperkte zijvakken: Voor wie graag waterflessen of paraplu’s snel bereikbaar heeft, zijn de zijvakken misschien wat klein. Conclusie: Deze Thule rugzak is een aanrader voor iedereen die op zoek is naar een stevige, stijlvolle rugzak met een betrouwbaar laptopcompartiment. Of je nu pendelt naar werk, op reis gaat of studeert, deze rugzak stelt niet teleur.

Ausgepackt und begeistert......so soll es sein. Die Farbe ist perfekt, der Geruch stimmt. Das Material ist angenehm und wirkt robust. Es gibt viele Stauräume zu entdecken. Beide Etagen sind verlässlich voneinander getrennt ( nicht nur so eine nervige Kletteinlage ). Die Extratasche ist geschickt integriert und zuerst fast nicht zu erkennen. Ich bin begeistert ....dieser Rucksack ist jeden Cent wert.

Used this on my last trip to Thailand for a month. Jammed with all sorts of camera and video equipment. You can easily fit a lot of gear and it stays safe and secure. There are individual bags inside that help organize things or you can remove them and pack larger items . The straps make lugging this around comfortable. Thule makes excellent products and this easily fits into this category. Being on the larger size it was great at both being able to hold my camera gear safely as well as a day’s supply of towels and such for day trips . I would easily recommend this bag

Ottimo prodotto, robusto e funzionale oltre ad avere una bella estetica.

Excelente producto, su relación calidad - precio de lo mejor. Solo tener en cuenta que no es muy rígida y para estar “parada” se necesita recargar.
