Best Backpacks
Incase ICON
Carryology score
avg. reader score
Incase has singled out the ICON as the best backpack they’ve ever made. So what makes it awesome? Well it won’t suit everyone but if you’re a gadget lover it will snag your attention, as this is definitely a pack designed with a tech carrier in mind. Designated spaces for a 15-inch MacBook Pro, iPad and iPhone combine with a variety of additional organization options so users won’t be short of pocket storage. The 20-liter ICON pack is also available in a smaller 16.5-liter version, the appropriately named ICON Slim Pack.
the good
- Great pocketing
- Cushy padding protection for your tech
- Can float between work, school and play
the not so good
- Not as many hidden pockets as predecessors
- Molded back panel needs to be worn in a little
