Jennie F
from Maui
I was looking for a very basic - but not flimsy - backpack to carry my laptop while riding my scooter. Dakine is known for their surfer-tough products, and I was in Maui at the time, so it seemed like the way to go. I also looked at Gravis, InCase and other brand bags, but everything seemed too complicated - straps, pockets, pouches, and handles I just didn't need, and much higher price points. This backpack is an absolute steal! It's simple, it's tough, and the red color is amazing (just as bright as it looks on screen). I carry my 15" MacBook Pro in the padded sleeve, big studio headphones and power adapter in the main compartment, and wallet, phone and other small things in the front pouch. There is room for more - a book or two and a sweatshirt, perhaps. Initially, the material was very stiff and I thought wearing it was going to be uncomfortable. It felt especially snug where the straps meet near my neck, but with use it has softened and conformed to my body as is perfectly comfortable. The outer material is thick with a diagonal ribbing and is coated on the inside. I have ridden several times in heavy rain, and while Dakine doesn't claim it's waterproof, nothing has ever been damp inside the bag despite me being soaked! The nylon material on the inside is a nice cool gray. The YKK zipper pulls are solid metal (a big issue I've had with other bags is zipper pulls falling off after a few years), a bit larger than you'd expect, and the same red as the bag for a very sleek monochrome look. I had a bit of trouble unzipping and zipping the front compartment initially because of the stiffness of the material and the fabric overlap that hides the zipper when closed, but with use it's become much easier. All in all, highly recommended if you're looking for a simple bookbag or laptop backpack that will last you many years, hit a very sweet price point, and look good doing it.
Brands I'd also recommend: InCase, Gravis, Alife

About Dakine
DaKine moved their manufacturing and operations to Hood River, OR in 1986; besides being a popular windsurfing location on the mainland, it´s also a gathering place for the best professional snowboarders looking to ride on Mt. Hood. In 1989, after proving themselves as leaders in surf accessories, gear, and bags, DaKine committed to the rapidly expanding snowboard market with board accessories, board bags, and gear bags. By using their commitment to unique designs, high quality, and the desire to stay true to the spirit of the sport, the company would become the world leader in this market over the next 15 years.
Throughout the 1990s, DaKine moved into the snowsports glove category with a modest three styles, and has now expanded that line to close to 70 models today. In 1996, DaKine introduced the Heli Pack, which helped create the new category of minimalist technical backcountry day packs. In 1998, DaKine sought to surpass the Heli Pack and introduced the Heli Pro. In a short time, the Heli Pro becomes the standard for technical daypacks as well as the sport's best selling (and most copied) model. Also around this time, DaKine moved into skate specific packs, such as the Park Pack, which quickly became known for its innovation and durability.
A true leader in the world of bags, packs, and accessories, DaKine has also built a reputation in the travel category, whether it is board sport specific carriers or luggage. After celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2004, DaKine continues to pride itself on developing products for the top professionals in every board sport and building its reputation for innovation and quality for over a quarter of a century.
