PROS: Tons of pockets, including semi-hidden ones and others I may never use. Looks as great as it did in the image The removable pockets are surprisingly handy as I transfer them to other bags to increase storage. CONS: The woulda-been cool slot for the travel organizer takes up room from the the main compartment. It's hard to describe but an incredibly bad design idea. The other big problem is it strains the shoulders pretty quickly. I think its the unique take on the shoulder straps (which do look sweet). Regardless, sore shoulders... Overall I still love the bag. I use it primarily for the laptop slot. Works great as long as you dont need to hold a lot of books in the main compartment.

This backpack is amazing...better than any other backpack I have ever owned. There are pockets for laptop, MP3, camera, cables for electronics and this packpack even has it's own wallet! It's great for traveling because the wallet comes in useful for storing I.D.'s as well as boarding passes for airports. If you are looking for the ultimate backpack, you have found it! The white plaid is pretty unique and you will be the only one with it in your town!

NIXON always has me stoked on their attention to detail. Whether it's returning your watch from their repair shop with a handful of stickers and BAZOOKA bubblegum, or just hiding clever little slogans on the backs of their watches and inside hem of their t-shirts. They rock with serious style, humor, and quality. This backpack is no exception. Tons o' pockets, including a removable "wallet" with ID window, credit card sleeves, etc. Two removable side bags; one conspicuously sized to fit an iPOD nano, and the other the size of a 30/60 GB, and with a velcro clip for your belt. Further, the dual-size laptop sleeve in the back is pretty handy...as is the roomy interior and skateboard holding strap. All in all, whether you're a student, a traveling minstrel, skate rat on the move, or just dig groovy plaid sickness and sturdily constructed goods...you might do well to GET THIS BACKPACK ! ! !

This backpack is amazing. I have been looking for it for 4 months and it definitely did not disappoint. There is a specific pocket for sunglasses and other removeable pockets on the side for an MP3 player and a camera. There is a travel wallet that comes with this backpack and it comes with its own compartment. I was only disappointed with the size of the laptop compartment because my laptop was too big for it, so make sure you have a smaller laptop if that's what you are buying this for! Otherwise, it's worth the money and more!
