[ I got this bag one month ago, since then I have traveled to two different places and this bag is super convenient to carry all my important documents, laptop, and make up.

5 Mads
[ I bought this a month ago after seeing a friend with it. I 've struggled finding a work backpack that is fashionable, has the right compartments and is comfortable: THIS IS IT! Perfect amount of zippers and pouches AND TWO bottle holders on the side. The 3 way straps are KEY for easy grab and go. I feel the quality is sturdy and it will be durable enough to last. 100% would recommend.

5 Shi831
[ Looks like the photos! I 'd love this in multiple colors. I workout multiple times a week. I like a bag that can fit nearly everything I need for the day. It's easy to clean and has quality zippers. I filled the bag to the max& they did n't get off track. The straps are sturdy and comfortable. I appreciate that they do n't dig into my shoulders. There's a side pocket for my water bottle and a loop I can use to hook my keys. There's also an inside pocket for smaller items( ie: airpods, keys, lip balm.) I would recommend.

5 V
[ As someone who's always on the move, finding a backpack that adapts to my unpredictable days is essential. The Nike Aura Backpack has been a game- changer. It ’s a 24- literally bag which I feel is an ample size for work essentials, gym gear, and personal items. Its main pocket is very spacious, it has a mesh liner inside to keep things in place while still having plenty of room for other items, there ’s also a bonus zipper inside where you can keep a wallet and have it secured. The side pocket is perfect for a water bottle, and you don ’ t have to worry about it being too large because the pocket has a an elastic band that gives more leeway for bigger bottles and doesn ’ t puff up when you remove the bottle keeping it sleek. The front pocket is also spacious, ideal for smaller items like deodorant, keys, snacks etc. The material is smooth and the backpack feels lightweight. I don ’ t have any gripes with the backpack, if anything I would have added a rubber or sturdier sole for the bottom to avoid wear and tear from being placed on various surfaces. Overall, I highly recommend the backpack for any instance. And don ’ t worry, even if you have the bag on for extended periods, the straps are smooth and don ’ t cause any discomfort. If you ’ re looking for a backpack, look no further

5 Grace
[ This backpack is sleek and versatile, and a good fit both for work/travel, as well as packing things for school or the gym. It comfortably fits a laptop, a book and lunchbox, or a pair of shoes and a change of clothes. The size is great for day use without being too bulky. The black color gives it a timeless look, while the smartly designed compartments keep everything organized, from my laptop to smaller essentials, and it includes a pocket for your water bottle on the side. The finish& material make it go well with a more sporty look, as well as adding a fun touch when pairing it with a school outfit. Definitely would recommend!

5 LaurenC
[ There ’s plenty of room in this backpack, with lots of pockets to keep everything organized. The main compartment is big enough for all your gear( I put a basketball and shoes in there and the zipper had no problems closing). There is an interior and an exterior zipper pocket to hold your keys, wallet, and phone, while the side elastic pocket fit my 24 oz water bottle. But the backpack looked a little small on me. I am 5'10 '' and the bag was about half the size of my back when full. It looked much better on my wife, who is 5' 8 ''. I would also not put a laptop in here as there is not much padding on the interior. Otherwise, the bag is lightweight with comfortable, adjustable shoulder straps. The top loop feels much more durable than the rest of the backpack so I would feel confident holding my belongings by just the top loop. All in all, this backpack is worth checking out if you are looking for a modern, practical athletic bag for daily use.

5 Tina
[ The Nike Aura backpack is awesome. One of the most important factors for choosing a backpack is its ability to fit my fashion style. With its sleek design and adjustable straps this backpack blends style in functionality perfectly.

[ This is a good bag and can store laptop safely too with lots of additional space to keep books. Looks smart and is teen and college kid approved. The quality looks well made. I was able to put 10 books( could have put in more,) a small laptop and small lunch bag inside. The side pockets is a great place to store water bottles. The material looks like it ’ ll not allow water to get in however I wouldn ’ t want to try that. All in all is a good backpack.

5 Acentitus
[ This Jordan branded backpack is great for my everyday schooling needs. I attend college and have alot of big heavy study books that need carried. This backpack has plenty of room for my study books and more, plenty of pockets and room. The shoulder straps are padded so all the weight does n't effect my shoulders. Overall it's a very sharp stylish heavy duty backpack. I love it.

5 Hayley
I got this bag in black. The DSG Ultimate backpack 4. 0 is a very useful and functional bag, and it is light without any items in it. There are big and small pockets inside and outside of the backpack. I can easily fit in my 13 ” MacBook Pro in the laptop slot. It won ’ t be a problem to fit in a 15 ” MacBook too. Both sides of the backpack have the water bottle slot as compared to others that usually have one. There is a small compartment on the outside upper backpack that is lined and padded, can be used to put mobile phone. The straps of the backpack are padded for comfortability on the shoulders. Overall this is a very good backpack for the value.

5 David M.
Very lightweight backpack with tons of pockets for everything you would need to take for school or any other event where there ’s a need for separation of stuff. My son will be using it for school where in the pictures he was able to fit a laptop with separate pockets for his mouse and cords. There ’s also a pocket for his cell phone and his graphing calculator. There was plenty more room for his notebook and books as well as pencils and other school accoutrements. The side pockets allowed to hold his drink container or bottle and the other side an all umbrellas. There ’s padding in the back for all heavy loads and there ’s breathability so he ’s not heavily sweating. Great fit for him and the plain design fits his needs.

5 JCKM
Sturdy, good quality, holds a lot.

[ I love this bag. I got it for my 13 year old and it's the perfect size. It fits the chrome book, text books, and folders just fine. And the front pocket has all of these little pockets to organize school supplies. It's nice that my daughter can have a specific pocket for her pencil and know right where to look for it when she needs it. And the quality of the bag is outstanding. The materials all feel very well made and do n't feel cheap like other bags do. I feel like this bag could get multiple years of use. I love it. Definitely recommend.

[ I absolutely love this Jordan backpack! It is perfect in size and can sure hold a lot of weight, and does not seem to sag at all. There are quite a few compartments to store your things, if you want to organize them in any way, which is great! Overall, I love the color and design of this backpack. It is very appealing to the eye and I have gotten many compliments! I can also see this lasting for many years because the materials used are high in quality.

5 Momof3boys
[ This backpack is fantastic. Not only is it stylish( which my teenage son really appreciates) but the quality of it is amazing. You really do get what you pay for especially in my experience with backpacks. It's tempting to buy a cheaper one at the begining of the year but if you are like me and my boys about 2 months in when your backpack has ripped and the zipper isnt working anymore you are really gon na wish you had spent more on a quality product like this. This backpack is durable! The zipper is heavy duty and my son can pack this thing full without worrying about it not being able to handle it. The straps are nice and comfortable and it's the perfect size for my high schooler to fit books, a laptop and his lunch in it no problem.

Frequently Asked Questions For Urban Backpacks

When selecting an urban backpack, consider features such as multiple compartments for organization, padded laptop sleeves for tech protection, and water-resistant materials for durability. Additionally, adjustable straps and ergonomic designs can enhance comfort during daily commutes. Look for reflective elements for safety in low-light conditions as well.

Urban backpacks are often made from durable materials like nylon, polyester, or canvas, which provide strength and resistance to wear and tear. Some models may also incorporate water-resistant coatings or linings to protect your belongings from the elements. Understanding the material can help you choose a backpack that meets your lifestyle needs.

Choosing the right size for an urban backpack depends on your daily essentials and personal preferences. Consider how much you typically carry, including laptops, books, and other items. A backpack that is too large may be cumbersome, while one that is too small may not accommodate your needs, so finding a balance is key.

Urban backpacks are versatile and can be used for various activities such as commuting to work or school, running errands, or even casual outings. They are designed to be functional and stylish, making them suitable for both professional and leisure settings. Additionally, they can serve as great travel companions for day trips or weekend getaways.

While urban backpacks are primarily designed for city use, many models can also be suitable for light outdoor activities. Look for features like water resistance and durable materials to ensure they can handle different environments. However, for more intense outdoor adventures, specialized backpacks may be a better choice.
