MARK RYDEN Business Backpack for Men, Waterproof High Tech Backpack with Sport Car Shape Design and USB Charging Port, Travel Laptop Backpack Fits 17.3 Inch Notebook (YKK-3 Pockets)

I spent 2-3 hours researching different backpacks and finally settled for this one and Im glad I did. It had all the features that were important to me: Water bottle pocket, USB charging, chest strap, concealed travel document pocket, laptop and IPad sections, two easy access outside pockets, luggage strap for mounting over carry on baggage and even internal keyring loop. It was big enough for all of my carry on gear, but still small enough to fit under the seat in front of me and take into work as a laptop bag. First trip was for three weeks to Europe and India and it held up just great. Looks sharp too - would definitely recommend.

This backpack is amazing and worth the money. I can put five time as many things as I need in it and the zippers have no issues. Additionally the material is great. Any rain beads up and rolls off quickly. Great buy! I would buy another one.

I am a dj and was looking for a multipurpose bag to carry to my gigs with all I carry. I have been through a few and all of them were bulky. I got this bag and it for everything PERFECTLY. It was still slim and lightweight. The straps are thick and secure and I feel like I could hike to a mountain top and dj at this point with that bag because of how secure it is.

The style is great. Multiple sections and pocket for storage only thing missing is a pouch for a water bottle but we found a solution. Both my husband and my 14 year old son love it. My husband finds it handy for travel and son for school. Very satisfying purchase so far. Watching to see how it will stand up to wear and tear.

I really like this bag, súper confortable and waterproof, definitely you can fit a lot of stuff. Great pockets inside. My only but is some weird smelling. I realize after unpacking my stuff in a trip my whole clothes what terrible smelling. Other then that 100% recommend. I probably buy another one for work.

It feels premium. The material is great and it has a lot of storage for a full mobile office setup with lots of pockets to store all the essentials and more.

Who is Markryden and how did he make a business backpack thats so awesome? I travel for work, usually just an overnight trip but sometimes can go 2-3 nights. I attend business meetings, so a suit and dress shirts have to be packed. I can be wearing the backpack with casual or suit attire. I have a technical job and like tech, so I need lots of pockets for my laptop, dongles, notebook, pens, charger, cables, external harddrive, external battery pack, extra chargers, earphones, water bottle and misc documents. Everything must fit in the pack, no extra suitcase or duffel. Sometimes I leave my clothes in the hotel but still need to use the backpack as a day pack, and it shouldnt look massive when theres only a laptop and a handful of cables inside. These were my requirements for a backpack, and I did a ton of research. I have no concern for price, Im looking for function. If it can meet the needs I wrote above, I dont care if I have to spend $500. I bought and tested the Aer Travel Pack 2, Arcido Oxna, GoRuck GR1, Black Emblem Citadel R2, Knack Medium Expandable Knack Pack, OpposeThis Invisible, Peak Design Travel 45L Backpack, and of course the Markryden 3 pocket Travel Backpack. Very rarely is the most affordable option also the best one. I was really really impressed with this backpack, but I must say I didnt test all the backpacks very long so I dont know how well its going to hold up. It is the most functional though, and while not perfect, it checks all my boxes. Things I like -I can fit 1 suit, underwear, socks, PJs, 2 dress shirts, sweater, and small toiletries bag in the main compartment. Still room left in the other 2 compartments for my cables and laptop. -The main clothes compartment has smaller pockets for whatever you feel like putting there, which is really nice. It doesnt take any more room but its so nice to have it when needed (Arcido, Knack, and Black Ember dont have as many pockets in main compartment). -I think it looks nice when wearing casual or professional attire. Can pass as a regular day pack without question. Even when fully loaded, still not too bad. The Peak Design backpack looks like youre carrying half a house in it. -All the smaller compartments and pockets make it really easy for me to store everything I need in a manner thats clean and tidy. No one giant pocket of doom where everything goes into (Im looking at you GoRuck GR1). -When theres nothing in the main compartment, the bag naturally slims down as it doesnt maintain its expanded shape (Arcido, Peak, GoRuck, Black Emblem all stay expanded). -Its comfortable to wear, but I must say I dont typically wear my backpack for very long. The longest Ill wear it is when Im walking from the parking lot of the airport to my gate. -The zippers are surprisingly smooth, quiet and seem waterproof. Not sure what kind as they just say Markryden on them. All the other packs have YKK zippers that are supposed to be high end, but can be much louder to open. -Water bottle pocket sits flush on the side but a regular water bottle fits in nicely. Larger flasks wont fit. -Built in compass! Is it just me or is it awesome to have when youre in a new town, looking at Google Maps on how to walk to a nearby restaurant and you have no idea if youre supposed to go right or left from the hotel? -This pack is fairly light weight. Theres no actual weight on the amazon page, but Im estimating something like 2 lbs. Some backpacks are really heavy, like the GoRuck and Peak Design being above 3 lbs. Things I dont like -Im not crazy about the shiny Oxford fabric used on the outside. It feels a bit on the cheap side. Most of the other backpacks have Cordura 500-1000D which feels much nicer. This Oxford fabric isnt horrible, but it just seems like it could get scuffed easily and wont come off. -Laptop sleeve doesnt have a false bottom, which means the laptop is touching the bottom of the backpack where there isnt much cushion. If the backpack falls or you put it down quickly, it may damage the laptop. -I know I said I loved the pockets, but maybe too many?? Sometimes I forget which compartment and pocket I put something in. -I dont like the large branding on the front. I dont mind the small one on the top right, but the words MARK RYDEN going down the front of the backpack doesnt look very good to me. In the end, its a great backpack and I highly recommend it. If Markryden ever came out with the exactly same version but with a different fabric, Ill probably buy that too.

A lot more space than it appears. Was skeptical it would be able to hold all of my business stuff along with travel snacks, jacket and headphones. It’s not big enough to replace an overnight bag, but it holds a ton of items. Did get caught in the rain with it and kept all the rain out and away from my tech. If I had to pick a con I wish the USB connection was on the shoulder strap and not on the side. But it’s not a huge inconvenience. Highly recommend!

The backpack feels like a plastic back. It doesnt have any structure to keep it in shape. When its not full, it completely collapses and when its full it takes the same of whatever is in it. Also, the cushion in the front pockets is lose and take a lot of space. Its have to put anything in the front and back pockets when the bag is full.

I looked for a backpack that fit this criteria for a long time: Looks modern, Fits all my stuff (Im a full time college student with tons of books and a 15 inch MacBook), and has enough pockets for me to organize. The three piece version of this backpack is absolutely perfect. It looks modern and sleek, its high quality, and its easy to get to. The primary pocket (middle pocket) opens up almost 180 degrees which was a nice surprise. The ONLY complaint I have is that it is easy to see oil smudges on this material but it is an easy tradeoff for the waterproof aspect. I would definitely buy again, no question.
