Sherpani Camden Convertible Backpack Tote for Women - Recycled Nylon Travel Backpack Purse, School & Laptop Backpack Fits 15" Laptop, Crossbody Bag (Rosewood) - Perfect for Work, Travel & Daily Commute

I bought this bag because it's a vertical shoulder bag, rather than hanging in the wider direction like most bags. I love that it's so easily convertable! I use it in backpack mode when walking, then when it's time get on the bus or train, I can quickly change to the shoulder strap, which I keep attached and tucked into the back pocket. Then when it's time to walk again, I can quickly stuff the strap back into the pocket, and put on the backpack! I have a Sherpani Soleil AT that I love for the same reason. And they both look professional and neat, and beautifully designed. I bought the Camden beause it's an inch taller and I can carry my 17.3" laptop. It doesn't fit in the laptop pocket, but it fits in front of the laptop pocket, in the main space with a little room to had some padding, maybe a thin neoprine sleeve, or even a little bubble wrap at the bottom, which is good enough for commuting to work. The Camden is deeper and has a lot more space for other things that the Soleil, too. I'm very happy with this bag!The bag is overall beautiful, great materials and well constructed. I would have liked to have seen the computer sleeve be a bit wider however. It does easily fit my 2021 15" Macbook Pro WITHOUT its case. My protective case is rather large and thick. It does however fit either way in the front snap section, which I may use for traveling for easy access. LOADS of room for accessories, (Cables, iPad, Kindle, books, magazines, travel camera , my purse and an extra set of clothes!) Will make traveling abroad much easier!Perfect for this teacher. Slides easy over the handle of my wheeled computer bag. This does a great job too when I only need my computer and files. Love the backpack straps with option as a messenger bag too.I do not often submit reviews or give five stars to an item. I might give this one six ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I am a frequent traveler and have gone through many carry-on purses, and backpacks. For me, this one has the perfect amount of pockets, both inside and out with zippers, sections inside to secure my keys and passport, kindle, a lightweight travel blanket, And many other miscellaneous items. It is lightweight, and medium size, but deep enough to start items without getting bulky,Best of all, the backpack straps tuck neatly into a back pocket and you don’t even know they are there if you choose not to use them. There are three ways to carry this bag, using the backpack straps, the top handle, or an over the shoulder/cross body strap which is removable.Construction is also very durable.FURTHER UPDATE: Sherpani sent me a gift certificate for a new backpack (like this: https://www.amazon.com/Sherpani-Womens-Soleil-Backpack-Forest/dp/B07GR2PLJF/ref=lp_2210531011_1_3?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1566799814&sr=1-3&nodeID=2210531011&psd=1) and this one continues the tradition of looking good and being awesome. I'm now carrying a laptop, a keyboard, TWO mice, a mouse pad, a bag of small peripherals, and a makeup bag, and they all just disappear inside without distorting the clean shape at all. I still wish for more zip pockets inside, but am consoled by the elastic end pockets both inside & outside. Plus the two outside zip pockets.17 MONTHS LATER: a piece of hardware broke, making a backpack strap unusable. Sherpani customer service are checking to see if buying it from amazon means I am or am not within the warranty. I am a bit grumpy but still using daily. If I had to carry my laptop this month though I'd be pretty mad.ONE YEAR LATER: I continue to love this thing passionately, have used it daily since my last review, and it's still in great shape. I've washed it three times so far. Last weekend, I took it for a hike & then leaned it--this white fabric bag--up into the wheelwell of my husband's car. What can I say, it seemed like a good idea at the time? Anyway, I took it home, emptied it, scrubbed at the stains with a laundry stain remover, and ran it through the delicates cycle. Stain came out. Today I took it to the park & a child got her chocolatey hands on the outside while helping me get my iphone out. Scrubbed it with a wet washcloth, and whaddayaknow? Stains came out.None of the seams have given out, none of the zip tags have come off, all the zippers still run really well, and the webbing hasn't frayed. The fabric looks new. The ONLY, ONLY thing I would change is maybe throw in a few inner wall zip pockets. Or just put zips on the ones that are already there--I've had to stuff it with pouches for all my junk. But maybe they ran out of unobtainium? Who can say?----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I've had this bag for 3 weeks and I'm nuts about it. Let's get this off the table first: yes, it's expensive. HOWEVER. It is so well made! The short handles are webbing. The long strap is webbing, and the adjustable buckle doesn't slide. The long strap also can't twist, it has spinning attachment points. The zip tabs are sturdy. The backpack straps are adjustable and nicely padded, and they tuck away neatly into their own pocket, which closes magnetically and also holds my house keys + a grocery bag. There are small open exterior pockets at each end (not quite comfortable for a bottle; good for glasses though) and two zip pockets on the opposite side, one perfect for a small cosmetics bag/accessories, another for keys or keycard/subway ticket. The interior has multiple pockets (wallet/checkbook/tissues) and a padded open compartment that is just big enough for my HP. I can also just barely fit in my computer charger and a large trackball.I like a little more organization, so I also got this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004WMW8NE/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_1for the inside, and it holds tampons, iphone charger, fitbit charger, headset, hair doodads, pens, and notebook.The white fabric does show stains, but wipes clean easily, and the black fabric doesn't have any problems so far from being set down in various grungy places. The inside fabric is a lovely glossy neutral stripe. Lastly, one side of the bag will zip open to allow the whole thing to fit over a suitcase handle.I've haven't let go of this thing since I moved my stuff into it. They may have to bury me with it.I haven't gotten to travel yet with this bag. It is very nice looking (looks professional yet cute) and feels sturdy, and the configuration seems great. *My only concern is that the trolly sleeve is too narrow (by only a few millimeters! which is very frustrating) to fit over the pull up handle of my roller bag and I was really sad and disappointed! After some wiggling and stretching, it is possible to force it, but ugh I dread the struggle in airports. I have a different bag by Sherpani-more of a computer bag-and the trolley sleeve is perfect. I am not sure if my bag just got a couple of extra stitches ?? or if all of the Camdens are too narrow and require the struggle.I travel for work and have started using this bag in the black color as a laptop/carry on bag. I love the removable/convertible straps - they detach easily and are very secure. There are so many useful pockets and the bag fits more than I expected! It fits my 15" laptop very easily. I have already received multiple compliments on this bag and will recommend it to all my friends and colleagues looking for a carry on bag. Planning to keep this for a long time - it's perfect!Me gusto mucho la calidad del material. Si bien es un poco mas compacta que otra que tenía, la calidad es mucho mejor, y ya encargue la color negro. Yo camino mucho y era lo que estaba buscando, una combinacion de bolsa sport, que se pudiera hacer mochila para no cargar todo el peso en un hombro.This bag is great for a travel carry on or to take to work. Holds a laptop and has several separate compartments. It appears sturdy with no issues so far and the zippers are not flimsy. Love this bag
