Incase Compass Backpack

The Incase Compass is a laptop backpack for those who need reliable daily carry that looks as good as it functions.

If you are looking for a backpack with 101 pockets then the Incase Compass is not for you. If you instead would like a simple backpack with a roomy main compartment for your daily essentials and a few thoughtfully place smaller pockets then the Compass is worth a closer look.

The Incase Compass is offered in two different sizes:

• Compass backpack: 24 liters

• Compass Dot: 13 liters

The photos and specifications below are of the original 24 liter Incase Compass backpack.

What we like

• Stylish modern design.

• Main compartment is spacious enough for tech, books, and personal items while still keeping a slim profile.

• Laptop and top pockets are lined with a super soft faux-fur.

What we don’t like

• No side water bottle pockets

• Not the best construction quality for Incase, but the Compass is also one of the more affordable Incase bags.

SPECIFICATIONS

• Dimensions: 18.5” H x 11.75” W x 5.25” D

• Capacity: 24L

• Materials: 500D Blended Weave Polyester & 900D Triple Coated Polyester

• Laptop Compartment: Up to 15”

The Incase EO travel backpack scores a slam dunk with technology enthusiasts who need a weekend backpack with an emphasis on laptop and tech carry.

What we like

• TSA checkpoint friendly laptop compartment that lays flat.
