    Squared Backpack

    Just buy it! You won't regret it. Carries my iPad Pro/MacBook, cables, water bottle, other gadgets, change of clothes, and more. Perfect for a quick weekend trip. Have received a lot of compliments on it.

    Design Issue or Unfocused Tech Support?

    I purchased this bag in black and really enjoyed using it and was able to pack a lot in it.. I stumbled across a design issue where the buckles on the side pockets were mounted too low to accommodate taller items. I could not buckle items that are about an inch taller than the actual side pockets.. I tried to get SBL to fix or exchange, but they did not acknowledge the issue even after sending pictures of my bag vs. other similar backpacks. After a call and more than a dozen emails with tech support packed with their useless cute talks, I ended up getting a gift certificate for a refund. Happy to get my money back, but very frustrating that I could not get an exchange or have them fix the bag.

    Wonderful Squared Backpack

    I have been wanting the squared backpack for years! I finally have one! I am a woman, glad my last name is not shown because I am going to get personal...I would like other women out there to know that while this backpack is huge, you too as a woman can carry it off. I am 5'6 180 lbs (yes, I am working on losing weight) and I am 44 yrs old. This backpack can go anywhere, school, work, and up into the mountains on a hiking trail. I have been using mine daily and it has so much room inside that I have yet to fill it. When the bag is empty no way does it feel like 8.6 lbs, it feels more like 6 lbs. I could be wrong on weight but it does not feel like it's over 8 lbs. If you are a woman 5 ft or under then this bag might, might be a little much for you. Yes, as a man bag this would work great too, of course. I think that women might be intimidated buying this for fear of it being to much. If as a woman you are looking at the large classic briefcase then also consider this bag. This bag is not as mushy as the other backpacks, it is more structured. I like that, but you can't go wrong with any of saddleback's products because they truly are second to none! Oh, and yes the shoulders straps do not come with padding, however I love the way the straps are on this bag, PERFECT. I think I would be fighting with shoulder padding slipping and sliding up and down the straps-maybe not but, I love the design from start to finish with this backpack! I got the color black, but I love the color tobacco too so it was a hard decision to make. I chose black because I thought it would go with anything and not show accidental pen marks and scuffs as easily. I have used the bag about 3 days now and I can't find one thing to complain about. I love how it feels on my back, it is so comfortable. I can carry more and have it heavy and on my back it doesn't hurt or slow me down. However, if I had to carry the same bag across my arm or on one shoulder...No Way could I carry for very long. On my back I am hands free, feeling good, ready to take on the world. I hope I have given some new information to the laddies out there who never gave this bag a thought to maybe this would work. It works for me! Lastly I can not speak highly enough about the customer service at saddleback, those folks really care and take pride in what they do. Thank you, Thank you, saddleback!

    I have used this bag for various uses including tough training courses in the mountains and cross country and this bag has been wonderful! Wouldn't trade it for anything else
