Troubadour Apex Compact Backpack 3.0-16L Premium Laptop Backpack - Ergonomic & Water Resistant - Designed for Work and Travel - Air Force Blue

Despite its compact 16L size the storage is impressively well-organized, featuring a padded laptop compartment and discreet pockets for essentials. This backpack blends style and efficiency, making it a great option for work and for using while travelling to add essentials! This is our second purchase as my wife took my first bag!

I love this bag - it feels great on, has lots of compartments inside the main body, plus a separate section for my laptop which fits in perfectly. On top of that there's slots for a water bottle, and a zip for my passport at the front. The pads on the back make it really comfortable to wear too - I find the compact size is perfect for my 5'2" frame. As always there are no flashing logos - I've been buying Troubadour bags for years, and this one does not disappoint.

I just purchased this in green, and am loving it. Super convenient bag, with lots of helpful compartments to organise my things. Love the fact that it’s waterproof. One thing I didn’t notice at first that I find particularly helpful is the zip-up pocket on the shoulder strap, which I use to keep my phone and keys. Would 100% recommend the bag as it’s a perfect size for work and also for travel. Some people might recommend the larger size, but I find the compact is definitely big enough.

This is my second apex compact! By far the most comfortable bag I've ever owned. Nice to see the new features in the upgraded model, especially the easy-access phone pocket. Bag fits perfectly on a luggage handle and looks fantastic on!

I really wanted to like this backpack. It has a really good set of compartments and the passport pouch in the shoulder strap can be useful. The laptop compartment is very snug for a 16" MacBook Pro, but it works. However, and this was a major selling point, it is not waterproof. Got caught in a shower and the laptop compartment got soaked! Therefore, I cannot recommend this bag and had to return mine.

The price is absolutely disgusting and a complete waste of money!

I love this bag even for the price. I know the price is steep but the quality is insanely good and it is comfortable. I would say the quality equates the price. This one is a smaller backpack, it can probably fit a 13in laptop but it will be a snug fit - so anything bigger definitely won't fit. I usually travel with just an 11in iPad pro and that fits perfectly fine. It can holds a light jacket and a water bottle on the inside (and some snacks) but it would be difficult to fit a whole outfit. I do think the water bottle holders on the side don't really hold a water bottle. They are pretty small and tight. Sliding it under an airplane seat leaves plenty of foot room because it is a compact bag. I used to travel with a standard size backpack and the under-seat storage always left it hanging out a little, taking up my foot space, but this one does not. It is a little stiff but I acquaint that to the newness. If you are looking for a compact, stylish, work/ travel backpack - then this is probably for you (if you are willing to pay the high price)

I’ve been using the Troubadour Apex 3.0 for a few months now, and it has exceeded my expectations. The clean, minimalist design looks professional for work but still works perfectly for travel. I’ve had no issues fitting my 16” MacBook Pro, chargers, and accessories in the main compartments—everything stays organized, and the pockets are well thought out. Unlike some reviews, I’ve found the shape holds up perfectly, even when not fully packed. The materials feel premium and durable, and the waterproofing works flawlessly—I’ve been caught in light rain, and my laptop stayed dry. For me, it strikes the right balance between style, function, and durability. Yes, it’s an investment, but the quality and versatility make it worth every penny. If you’re looking for a sleek, reliable backpack that stands out from the ordinary, the Apex 3.0 is a great choice.

Súper pesado

C’est un sac de belle qualité et solide. Ja reçu de beaux commentaires sur mon sac. La version compact est serrée alors mieux vaut bien lire les dimensions. Je le recommande pour les personnes qui se déplacent avec peu de chose et qui voyagent léger. Seul petit défaut: la poche pour la bouteille d’eau est petite même pour une bouteille standard.

Ein Rucksack für do viel Geld, nur weil er in der NY Times beschrieben wurde? Mein Mann nutzt ihn jetzt seit 3 Wochen und ist begeistert von der Funktionalität und Qualität.
