Customer Reviews Thule Subterra Backpack 30L

Perfect size for my carry on. Well constructed, looks so simple yet elegant.

I've been looking for a new bag to hold all of my daily stuff- laptop, iPad Pro, books/notebooksand there is still extra space! This bag has been perfect for me!

I have yet to put this bag in service but it is feature rich and as I am prepping for a journey it so far all fits that was planned for it. The quality of the bag leaves me no doubt that it will serve me well and last the many miles I have planned for it.

This backpack has been everywhere with me over the last 2 years. I was blown away by the design- tapers slightly when filling to slip under an airplane seat (not sure if that's an accident or intended but my jaw dropped when I made this connection). Easy laptop and water bottle access, even the 16" and 32oz biggos I carry. Plenty of compartments inside suiting a variety of trip types. What's really incredible about this bag is the durability. Over 100k miles over two years of corporate travel. Still looks brand new, clips are still on, straps still hold. A great travel companion!

i love it! It's a great size for a girl like me (5"2 / 110 pounds). It's beautiful and functional. Has lots of pockets and it's easy to find stuff. I have the carry-on in the same model, they match and l like the minimalist look. I got some compliments.

I have been looking for a backpack that is good for motorcycle commuting and work place packing. I have bought many different types of backpack and never keep them for more than six months. For Thule Subterra, i fell in love with it right away after I open the package. The material is thick and make you like you are having heavy duty while it is light. Organized pockets are well done. It is also easy to take out laptop when you need it. when I am riding motorcycle, the backpack is steady and attached to my back.

I've been using this bag for a couple months now. Recently went back to school, and I'm usually a busy person that has school, work and also goes to the gym. This bag holds everything I need for the day. The compartments makes it a lot easier to organize my stuff specially tech. Laptop sleeve that you can open up from the side makes it so convenient to quickly access my laptop

I like the all the space and the pockets. The color is great.

Love it. It looks and feels a bigger than the 23L but doesn't feel that bulky once I put it on. I had bought the 23L first and then exchanged it for this 30L Mineral version, which turned out to be a good decision. I really like this backpack and can't wait to test it out during my upcoming travel.

Just what we were looking for our college student and to be used for anything! Sturdy and great holder for computer,

I've purchased Thule in the past and they just make quality products. The Subterra is an excellent backpack and holds everything I need. Buy one, you won't be disappointed

This is a very good bag with quality materials, good organization and great style. I like the organization on this bag. The front org panel is very good and there is space in the bottom for more gear. My only gripe is I wish there was a vertical pocket on the front where there is a vertical seam on the bag. It totally looks like there is one there because that space has a little bit of volume to it so that was a bummer. Laptop area was pretty big. It was a little snug on my massive work computer but it still fit. I wish the laptop compartment was a separate section, but what can you do. Not the most comfortable bag, but still comfortable enough. Overall this is a very nice bag with just a couple minor quibbles (no separate laptop compartment, no quick access pocket on the front) I would recommend this bag to others, but ultimately it is not for me.

This is a really nice backpack. It is comfortable to wear and it feels very well made. The bag has many different compartments to keep all of your things organized. The only thing that I don't like about this backpack is that there are no external pockets on the front; you have to go into the main compartments to access everything. I am a graduate student and am mostly using this backpack for work, but I think it would also be great for travel.

bought this for travel. love that it has the zipper on the side to easily access your laptop when going through airport security as well as all the organization in the front pocket. also love that this bag has some structure to it. seems very well made.

Overall a good bag. Just took it for two weeks through Europe as my backpack. Materials are great and the look and finish are really good. Comfortable even packed out. Here's the drawback - the zippers don't fully zip down the sides of the bag, maybe to the 3/4 mark. So, when you're fully packed it's tough to get to the stuff way at the bottom without unloading. I appreciate the ample water bottle storage on either side. Again, those pockets got tight when really packed out. I was able to fit h20 collapsible bottle, ipad, plane head pillow, another pack-able day pack, all my chargers and cables, headphones, pills, face wipes, snacks, and my wife's rain jacket, and my stuff able rain jacket, and the small point and shoot camera we have. It was loaded up, but did the job. In the future, I might opt for a different style of opening bag for 2 week in EU as we were in and out of the bags often and constantly repacking from hotel to hotel. But, for a quick overnight or couple days - I think I could make this work with a packing cube for my single bag travel. I'm a minimalist and love that option. So, if you're not trying to get in and out of this thing all the time - its a win.

Beautiful backpack. Very comfortable and thoughtfully laid out. Handles on both top, bottom, and 1 side makes it easy to move around. Side access to laptop is very convenient. Highly recommended.
