    Default Work Laptop Backpack Recommendations for DH?

    DH is in need of an updated work laptop backpack. Yes, he will finally be going back to work (only one day a week but still!) He had an Ogio from Costco that has been great but it is looking pretty worn now. We're thinking of replacing it with another Ogio (unfortunately significantly more expensive than the one he had purchased at Costco!):

    Anyone have this one? Any other recommendations? He has a 17inch Macbook Pro we think will work (it says it will work for thin 17" packs). Also of note, he has a bad back so the backpack style seems to be preferable.

    TIA!

    No experience with their backpacks but I have used my Victorinox luggage for years and it is very well made. I also have a nice Victorinox cross-body bag.

    We like Swiss Gear. Target carries a good selection at various price points.

    I started a new job that commutes 5x week by train and needed one that could take a 17 in laptop and hold a bunch of staff. I wanted a clean look without a lot of stuff handing off of it, but had a water bottle sleeve. I wound up with this Osprey one:

    I love it more than I thought. I big bonus for me is there is a small pocket in the strap that holds my rail pass so I always have it.
