## Our verdict

### Reasons to buy

-   Best gym laptop backpack as rated by the Wirecutter
-   Features a huge compartment at the bottom that can be used for shoes and dirty clothing.
-   Versatile enough to be used as work bag or gym bag.
-   Made with recycled materials which means this is an eco friendly bag.

### Things to consider

-   The harness system does not feature any hip nor sternum straps which would do wonders especially with a pack of this size.
-   The back panel lacks ventilation and padding.
-   The straps aren't the best ones out there. It gets a bit uncomfortable to use when the bag is fully packed.

## What reviewers said

-   "The Hakuba is the dream backpack I've been wanting for years. The large opening on the top can hold more than a weekend's worth of clothes if you pack correctly. The highlight, for me, is the separate compartment at the bottom for shoes and dirty clothing." - Les Shu, Insider Reviews senior editor
