Mountain Hardwear Agama Laptop Backpack

Nice alternative to TNF Recon
As an admitted laptop friendly backpack junkie, I was looking for a new bag in a bright, but not gaudy color. The Agama seems to fit the bill. It is very light weight and holds a lot. The mesh front pocket is huge, the shoulder straps fit well. The mesh and padded pockets inside the main and organizer pockets are nice. Now for my picky observations: The organizer panel is spare, my iPhone does not fit in the shoulder strap phone pocket and the laptop pocket could be better padded without adding weight. The best thing about the Agama: Mountain Hardwear's bright, crisp, clean colors!

Awesome laptop bag
I got this bag for a conference I was attending and some travel I have coming up. I couldn't be more pleased. As always with Mountain Hardwear, the quality is top notch. The zippers are hard core and the nylon is strong while still lightweight. The features are equally well executed. The water bottle holders are high quality mesh and hold my 32 oz Kleen Kanteen snugly. The pockets are well organized with a good number of dividers, sunglasses pocket, etc, without being too many. The mesh pocket in the back is nice for stuffing a fleece or similar. There's even a great pocket on the shoulder strap for my iPhone. I compared this with the Enterprise - even bought both, and I kind of agonized over the decision. The key diffs are: Enterprise has a padded laptop slot and an extra folder slot. Instead of the mesh back pocket, it has two pockets that open on the sides of the bag. Everything else is the same, the sunglasses pocket, iPhone pocket, organizer pocket, etc. It's an excellent bag too. I went with this one because I always travel with a fleece and the mesh fleece pocket seemed good for that. You can't go wrong either way. This one might be a bit more appropriate as a dual use day pack. The Enterprise is definitely geared toward business travel.

Solid Pack
I've had this pack for about a month now, and its the best one I've ever owned. I use it for everyday commuting with my laptop and gym clothes or throw my 3L Camelback reservoir into the sleeve. I really like this pack because it can appear compact when lightly packed, but it can also fit tons of stuff if you need to. The pocket/compartment organization is fantastic.
