Solo New York makes a variety of bags for the 'urban' set. I don't see this particular bag on their website, which is confusing, but with some makers, what shows up on Amazon is older stock. (Or newer stock. Who knows?!) I like this bag so much more after I actually used it. When it arrived, it looked like such a plain square bag. And it is. But it sort of has more life to it when it's carrying stuff. Obviously, it doesn't call attention to itself, but it subtly does with its simple shape, interesting twill fabric, and contrast handles and zippers. It is subtly striking. Sturdy and well made, it holds my now ancient 15" MacBook Pro (pre USB-C) and papers. It does not have a laptop pocket, which I thought it might, since they mentioned laptops. Oh! Let me correct that! My laptop fits in the padded side pocket vertically! I haven't had a bag before that held my large laptop sideways like that. I think the lining is nylon twill. Pockets: Inside padded pocket (not full width, but does hold my big 15" MBP vertically), and on the other inside, a row of pockets about 5 inches deep: a mesh pocket, a nylon pocket, and a couple of pen sleeves. There is also a key fob on the inside. Outside, there is a 13.5" zipper pocket (not big enough for my MBP, but would hold a smaller laptop, like an Air, or papers), and a vertical-zipper pocket that's about 6" at the opening and 8" across. On the other exterior side, the pass-through pocket has a zipper top and bottom, with zippers that are about 12 inches across. (Maybe a little dicey to store things in this as a pocket, but probably okay for larger things. The zipper seems secure.) Pros: 1. subtly striking 2. sturdy and well made 3. made with recycled bottles 4. 5-year limited warranty Cons: 1. I dislike the white brand tag on the outside, which does not blend with the gray. (It should totally be gray.) FYI: Made in China.
