The minimalist in me would be highly tempted to colour in the Thule logo with a black marker 🖋️.

As usual, an honest and very thorough review!

I really like this the look of this bag. It's kind of a shame it has the big "THULE" branding on the front otherwise it would look a lot sleeker. Appreciate the review!

Great review again. Which did you prefer the Thule enroute 23l or this one? I really want a great carry on for the plane and a day to day bag without being unnecessarily bulky.

I know it’s been 3 years since you’ve reviewed this bag (thank you so much for a great thorough review btw!) but i’m wondering whether this bag would stand up on its own with a typical office load out(laptop, tech pouch, jacket, notebook, etc). Any idea?

Dude at 00:21 need to chill and walk as other normal people. Its not like a Victoria Secret runway. Gosh

Great review. Appreciate the thoughtfulness. Also great to see some love of the less expensive but still high quality bags. Thanks!

Great review!! Can you review the new Patagonia 32L black hole backpack? Patagonia has a video on it but it doesn’t show all of the compartments/features. Thanks and keep up the great reviews!

Do you think the tablet pocket can hold a 12.9 ipad? It looks nearly the full width of the 15.6 laptop pocket

Very very good review. Super thorough!

Can you review the Convertible Laptop Bag 15.6 version of the Thule Accent as well? Or share your thoughts based on their website. I am considering buying that.

[dirites]

would you recommend the accent or enroute 23l?

[elizabethwai]

How do you find zippers? And is this bag comfortable to wear under heavier loads (with a few textbooks)?
Thanks!

Are the shoulder straps pretty long for a bigger and taller guy? Thanks

[christenses]

I'm considering to buy Accent or Subterra or Indago 23L ? Any advice?

[MrZizaro]

it's a pity it doesn't have a single zippered pocket in the main compartment.

Could a 15.6 inch laptop fit inside the laptop sleeve?

i bought this backpack and I am not 100percent happy with it. The hardcase for glasses or whatever it is too small to get there something bigger (e.g. regular bluetooth over head headphones). Also the side opening is more suitable for left handed people than right handed - when you need to pick up somthing from it and you cannot put it all off the back. But guess what, majority of people are righthanded. Also if you are shopping at grocery stores and you want to quickly pack your whatever you bought the front hardcase prevents backpack to be wide opened.. it is very impractical... After all it is a good looking backpack with a very impractical design.

"I'm surprised how little fit in the bag"
*Very poor packing job*

Thule needs to get rid of that ugly blue lining. Stick with the orange or olive green one. Looks way better.
