Overall this is a good middle-of-the-road travel bag that doesn’t really screw much up. You can use it as a daily work bag too and it’s fine. It’s a value bag.

The Timbuk2 Command is a large laptop backpack with multiple storage compartments and pockets. It is a run-of-the-mill backpack that includes everything you would want and has features that work as they are designed.

This backpack is surprisingly roomy for its exterior size- like… mansion roomy. I also like the rectangular, semi-structured shape which holds it form even when only partially filled. The cushioning for the laptop and tablet are both pretty solid.
