The COTS Laptop Backpack is an absolute game changer. Having used it for over a year and a half now, it has not only lived up to, but far exceeded my expectations in terms of durability and design. This backpack truly stands the test of time, with not a single sign of wear and tear to date. Its resilience to the daily grind is truly remarkable, especially considering I’m not one to baby my backpacks.
The sleek black aesthetic of the bag adds a professional touch, making it suitable for a wide range of uses from work and business travel to college and casual day outs. The backpack fits a 15.6 inch slim notebook comfortably and the water-resistant feature ensures protection for your electronics and essentials in case of unexpected showers.
The COTS Laptop Backpack’s quality, resilience, and style is unparalleled for its price range. It’s proved to be a truly great investment and I can’t recommend it highly enough. If you’re seeking a backpack that will reliably house your laptop and other necessities while maintaining a fashionable edge, this one gets my highest endorsement. THE BAG HAS LOTS OF POCKETS FOR A LOT OF STORAGE WHICH IS GREAT!

This is a beautiful backpack. It looks a LOT more expensive than it is – I think people would believe me if I told them I paid $200 for it. The fabric is not one of those weaved nylon types (which is great for sturdiness but let’s face it, most of them look cheap) but largely smooth plastic with a lightly ribbed pattern on it. This tells me that it is COMPLETELY water-proof. And the bag holds its shape well, unlike the weaved nylon types, most of which look like sad, creased messes.
I got the blue one, and I noticed that going by the photos I looked at before purchase, it seemed to be either navy or lighter blue. I can tell you this is definitely a navy color and not plain blue, or in line with what I was hoping for.
Of note, this backpack will not hold a ton of stuff – the capacity is certainly not big enough for, say, a student that needs to carry multiple, thick textbooks or a big binder. But my carry needs are pretty light, consisting of a 10″ tablet, a 6″ ebook reader, bluetooth mouse, portable keyboard, a battery pack and a few other stuff, and for that, there is plenty of room to spare.
The side pockets hold my 16oz travel mug perfectly and they are deep enough that I don’t have to worry about the mug falling out (one of the primary reasons for this purchase, as my existing backpack’s side pockets simply were not deep enough, forcing me to hand-carry my travel mug). But it probably can’t hold a mug/bottle larger than 16oz.
Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. Lastly, I’m a dude and one concern was that this backpack may look a bit feminine – I don’t think so, it just looks very classy.

This thing doesn’t hold a ton but it’s the exact reason I bought it. I was tired of carrying a clunky, large backpack around so I took a chance on this one because of the price and look. It holds everything I need it to! Here’s how I have it:
– 15″ Dell XPS in the bigger laptop pocket
– iPad 10.2″ in the next pocket
– XPS Charger, small Pelican headphone case, T5 SSD + cable in the zip-up portion of the bag (still some room for other smaller items)
– Bag of cables + adapters and a portable battery pack in the front pocket
– Warby Parker glasses case in side “bottle” pocket
Overall, for my stuff, this fits my lifestyle well! It’s a little small on the back but I don’t wear it for long periods of time and honestly my laptop is what makes it a little uncomfy. I could fit more in but don’t want to weigh it down too much! The value for the material, build, and look for this backpack is unmatched. Very happy to have bought it!

I moved to a rainy island for 4.5 months for school, and this bag worked so well. I was tempted to buy a really fancy one, but in a whim “went cheap”. Which was a risk because I wouldn’t have been able to replace it on the island.
It worked so well! and still looks brand new after being back. I wore it everyday, nearly all day. Carried my 15” MacBook Pro safely, along with sweatshirt, Bose over-ear headphones, water bottle, snacks, chargers, etc. it fit more than I expected.
I traveled by foot or on tightly crowded busses – no problem at all.
Chest clip held up, never broke. Nothing ever got wet! Side pockets were perfect for bus passes, phones & small water bottles
I liked the organization of the inner pockets. It never felt like I was rifling through black hole trying to find things.
Suuuper light weight, nice strap cushions, low-profile. Good design, surprisingly great value.

I have used this backpack for work for 5 months and I love it! It’s sturdy, looks professional, and the straps are comfortable. I have carried full, heavy loads in it (laptop, folders of papers, supplies, water bottle) and have probably over-stuffed it but it’ll hold up well and my shoulders don’t hurt due to the adequate padding. The backpack’s material also does an excellent job of protecting the contents from rainy weather. The only downside (as other reviewers have mentioned) is that the water bottle pockets are not accommodating enough. There is one on each side of the backpack, but due to my full load, I can only squeeze in one (and even that can be a challenge sometimes). Other than that, I think it’s amazing and you should get it.

Beautiful backpack but poorly designed
I loved the product images but when I received the item, the only thing I was impressed by was the material. It feels premium. Compartment design was so silly. The only two major zippers on the backpack lead to the same space. I don’t understand how that is even useful! Straps feels decent and your back will not sweat if you wear it for longer time. If you are someone who likes to organize their backpack and have your stuff easily accessible, this is not the backpack for you. THE BAG IS MADE OF PLASTIC WHICH IS VERY BAD!

It is quite small
The backpack is great, but it is a bit small, don’t really expect to fit much, would not recommend it for school, for work it’s great though, as it can fit your laptop and maybe two books or notebook, some loose items in the front, but what I was the most sad about was the water bottle holder. It is SO SMALL, I was very disappointed when I couldn’t fit my water bottle, especially in this day and age where everyone carry’s a medium to large water bottle,

For me this purchase isn’t great because the desi and pictures really don’t tell you anything. This is but a large backpack. It can fit a 15 laptop, like maybe a 16 MacBook but that’s pushing it and anything beyond that is absolutely a no go.
The bag in the pictures sports images of a secret front zipper. It’s not secret. It’s just the second set of zippers that can be used to get into the same one main compartment. There’s almost no reason to have the little flap and buckle because it just covers zippers that also lead to the main compartment. The only thing I like about the flap is that it has a pocket.
This bag technically has less organizational pockets ok the inside of each compartment than most bags. Doesn’t even include a little pen holding pockets.
The one saving grace for me is that it’s water proof and the design looks decent.
I carry my work laptop with me to and from home to work everyday and it’s been raining a lot where I am. This bag just ignores the rain. Doesn’t care at all and looks good doing it. But I’d rather have a larger version of this bag and a better description before buying.

Different material than what is described and in pictures
Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2022
I received a different backpack than what is in the pictures. The material was different, the packaging was bad, I am very disappointed as I read the reviews and loved the pictures and was looking forward to this, specially since I bought it during prime day and picked this one over others
