Eagle Creek Emerson Travel Tote 

"This was a splurge for me but I am very pleased with it. I originally wanted it for quick trips, and it works great in that capacity. I have taken it to overnight business events where this was the only bag I carried. The front half held my ipad, book, water bottle, headphones, toiletries, etc. and the back half held my clothing (packed in 2 ebags packing cubes). It was filled to capacity but the zippers worked well and I found the outside pockets in front and back very convenient. I loved the orange satin lining-- soft and easy to see. It fit easily under the seat on the plane. I like that I can walk through the city and not look like I just came from the airport, as the bag looks very professional. I unloaded my personal things at the hotel and then used the same bag for my business events and for sightseeing. I love the gray fabric, which has a wonderful reflective quality with a lot of texture and movement. I am now using the bag to and from campus and it carries everything I used to fit in my backpack, and is more convenient to access. I like having my laptop, folders, paperwork on one side and my lunch, purse, some books, water bottle, etc. on the other. On the down side, it can get heavy for carrying on one shoulder. The shoulder strap included works to make it more like a cross body strap, but it would be event better with some padding for the shoulder part. It worked for an overnight trip but for more than 2-3 days you would want to bring another bag to carry clothes. For example, I couldn't fit a change of shoes in the bag, as packed. The hardware is very durable and I have faith I will use this for a long time. A solid investment!"

"Beautiful, love the all the pockets, and very Well made!"

"I'm very pleased with this bag for carrying my pup's toys, jacket and cleaning supplies. The zipper handles are not very comfortable but are effective."

"I saw a colleague with this bag in black, and I drooled over it for some time. Fortunately, my husband got it for me for Yule. I absolutely love it. There are just enough pockets to keep my small items organized, and two very nice pocket for my pen cases. There are two large sections. I carry books, files, and my planning calendar in the back pocket, and my wallet, keys, hand lotions, brush, etc, in the front pocket. There are also small front and back zipper pockets that hold my cell phone and Metro pass case, which also holds my driver's license and Bar card. I can get to items that I need quickly. The satin lining is just beautiful. I have the matching wallet, and I was initially concerned because the satin seems delicate. I was wrong. It holds up just fine, despite daily use for more than a year. I am very pleased with the appearance and functionality of this large bag, which is generally all that I need. When I'm in court, this bag slips over the handle of my Eagle Creek wheelie bag."

"Just received so I have only used once for a short out of town trip. I like that it is so light weight and has easy access to the outside pockets. Look forward to using it again."

"This bag will combine with my Eagle Creek carryon to be the perfect travel packing combination. Holds packing cubes, a book, the iPad, even my regular purse, with room left over. As always, quality Eagle Creek construction, and eBags shipped the order promptly. I had my bag two days after I ordered."

"Was a bit apprehensive about the silver and white touches on this bag at first but have really grown to love it. It's big enough to fit my laptop and cords, a couple of books, loads of papers, and lunch. Bottle holder pockets on interior are great and keep water bottles upright (so no leaking!). Great bag for work!"

"I bought this bag for a business trip, but liked it so much that I now use it every day. It's just the right size for my 15 inch laptop (and accessories), the files I need daily, and a few other items if I'm traveling. It's also very comfortable to carry and not too heavy. I usually use the handles, which are the perfect length for me (I'm 5-10, so they may be long for some), and not the strap."

"I love my Eagle Creek Emerson Travel Tote. I use my bag as a hand bag when I board a plane. I can still use a carry on bag to put in the overhead compartment and put my Emerson Travel Tote under the seat in front of me which is big enough to put extra items in which don't fit in my carry on bag. This way I don't have to pay for a bag to check in."

"i liked this alot. i used it immediately and was very pleased"
