Organizer’s dream pick
Moment Everything Backpack
As low as
$264
Pure design sorcery
The 21L Moment Everything Backpack is thoughtfully designed for everyday work use. A padded laptop sleeve keeps devices secure, while a streamlined pocket layout offers practical organization without unnecessary bulk. It comfortably fits daily essentials—laptop, notebook, lunch, and smaller accessories—while maintaining a clean, professional look. The result is a backpack that balances function and aesthetics, making it easy to stay organized and look put together throughout the workday. We would recommend sleek, tonal cobranding to compliment the backpack’s simple and elegant silhouette.
High-end pick
Katmai Leather Backpack
As low as
$194
Timeless and functional
The ultimate gifting experience—this backpack shows up in its own cotton drawstring bag (fancy!), with solid brass hardware and rich full-grain leather that only gets better with age- like a fine wine or your coolest uncle. It fit my laptop, a few books, and all my daily essentials, with room to spare. We wish the laptop capacity was a bit larger (fits up to a 15” laptop). Still, it’s the kind of gift that makes a serious impression and will never see the trunk of a car for a Goodwill run.
Sustainable pick
Thule Stravan 2.0 Recycled 17" Laptop Backpack
As low as
$129
Quietly revolutionary
The Thule Stravan checks all the boxes without shouting about it. It’s made entirely from recycled materials and is Bluesign Certified, which is great, but what really sold us is that it still feels like a well-built, thoughtfully designed backpack. The layout is smart, the laptop sleeve is solid, and it expands when you need more space. It was comfortable to wear when I took an overnight trip and loaded up to the max with what I needed. If I could make this perfect, it would fit a larger water bottle in the side pocket.
Adventure pick
Patagonia Refugio Daypack 26L
As low as
$109
Outdoor meets office
This backpack struck a perfect balance of everyday functional and weekend adventure. As soon as I got it, I took out the laptop sleeve and popped in a water bladder for an 8 -mile hike. I was able to seamlessly swap my work and adventure life without needing multiple packs. The main compartment holds more than you think, and the front center pouch was perfect for quick-grab items. I wish it had a smaller pouch and key hook, but otherwise, it’s an awesome bag.
Cotopaxi Batac 16L Backpack
As low as
$82
Lightweight, colorful, and adventure-ready—no two bags are the same
Top pick
The North Face® Stalwart Backpack
As low as
$78
Comfortable and sleek
Hands down our favorite from the start. This comes in a few colors, but the Timber Tan and black look the sharpest. The straps are perfectly squishy, providing a comfortable carry even when you’re packing a heavy bag. The pockets and big open compartments are equal parts organizers dream, and Type B personality shove-it-in-and-go. The top portion has a generous spot for cobranding, with the North Face brand utilizing the bottom of the bag. For the price, the name brand, and the overall function of this bag, it’s truly a winner and the best bang for your ROI. We wish it had a trolly strap in the back, but otherwise, this is perfection.
Budget pick
Port Authority Daily Commute Backpack
As low as
$28
Simple and practical
The Daily Commute backpack delivers way more than you'd expect for the price. It’s got a padded laptop sleeve, spacious main compartment, and just enough organization to keep things tidy. I was able to fit my 24oz Owala Freesip in the water bottle side pocket, but you’d be hard pressed to squeeze anything larger in. The front pocket is large enough for embroidery to be an option, or you can even elevate the look with a leather patch.
Marine Layer Weekender Bag
As low as
$192
We're obsessed with the quality and craftsmanship - an item that can be passed down
"I LOVE this duffel! It’s sleek, timeless, and durable. The buffalo leather feels incredibly premium, and the brass hardware gives it a high-end rugged look that stands out in both aesthetics and function. I appreciate the thoughtful functional touches like the dual exterior pockets, and the inside phone slot and pen holders. This bag truly delivers on both quality and character and best part… it smells AMAZING!!" — Kelsey
