You can't go wrong with this Béis backpack. Whether you're looking for a cool school bag, a workbag that doesn't hurt your back, a new personal item for flights, or even a diaper bag, this fits the bill. Some exciting featues include a large exterior zip pocket on the front and two slip pockets on the side, a padded laptop sleeve, and a trolly pass-through.

Editor Quote: "Like Béis's other travel accessories, the backpack is loaded with tons of thoughtful organizational compartments. There's a padded sleeve that's perfect for carrying laptops, iPads, Kindles, and other delicate tech; an equally large compartment with suitcase-like compression straps to hold clothes or packing cubes; two smaller, zippered internal compartments (one with clear plastic and one with mesh); and a smaller external compartment to stash things you need to reach for quickly (think: keys — yes, there's even a key leash — your cell phone, wallet, and even a pen). It functions like a mini carry-on suitcase you can wear on your back.
I appreciate that there are extra design elements that you don't typically find on backpacks, like two water bottle pockets instead of one — an essential feature as a mom with two kids — and even a trolley sleeve, so I can slip my suitcase handle through it to give my back a rest while traveling. I also love the backpack's minimalist aesthetic. It's monochromatic with subtle branding and has just a touch of faux leather on the water bottle sleeves and along the base. It's utilitarian but luxe and is the perfect gender neutral bag, so my husband and I can share it." — Angela Elias, contributing shopping editor
