I used the Tortuga Outbreaker for years, but eventually I switched to a spinner carryon and backpack combo. Here's why:. Money stopped being my primary concern, and comfort became number one.

And one last thing on this laptop compartment... We really like it, but we do wish that there was some weather resistant or aquaguard YKK zippers used, just for some additional moisture protection for your tech
