Customer Reviews Tumi Alpha Bravo - Everett Essential Tote

This is a great bag with lots of pockets. It's small, so at the most it's good for 2 nights. Highly recommended for an overnight or weekend trip.

This is a very attractive bag and seems well-made. The only odd thing is that the stone color bag is not nylon, as described here - it's actually a heavy canvas twill. I still like it; it's just not exactly what I had expected.

Typical Tumi quality (exquisite). The bag is really nice but was a bit small for my needs. The bag is very unstructured yet has a lot of high quality hardware on it. This will tend to make the bag look even more unstructured and floppy when not completely full.

Great business case/carryon bag. Fits all business essentials plus travel pillow, sweater, noise canceling headphones, water, etc with a bit of room to spare. A bit floppy when not full. Have loved it on international business trips with long flight when I tend to cart around more stuff. Looks new after a year of pretty heavy use.

Well made. Handsome and very functional. Lives up to the Tumi name!

This is an exquisite bag. I am a bag junkie but always on a quest for the perfect carry-on. This is the closest I've come to perfect. I got the black and white, which is gorgeous. I'm a little nervous about the white getting dirty, but I'm hoping spraying it will help (if I had to do it again I'd probably get the Spruce with the gorgeous orange lining but seeing the black and white in person truly made me gasp). The ballistic nylon is top quality, the zippers are durable and the shoulder strap is really comfortable. The size of this bag is perfect for me (I'm petite--5'1") and it really can hold a lot. I received this as a gift while with my family in Chicago for the weekend and was able to fit the tote I traveled to Chicago with, as well as 4 days worth of clothes, toiletries, one pair of shoes, plus some things I bought while there (two scarves, 4 shirts, and a wallet). Keep in mind I'm small and it is summer, but I was impressed with the capacity of this bag. Other Pros: 1) there is a double zipper for the main compartment and rear zipper so you can lock them if needed. 2) mine has white interior so it is really easy to see what's inside the bag. 3) the ability to slip the bag over the handle of a rollaboard bag. The video doesn't highlight this, but there is a zipper in the rear bottom of the bag that you can unzip so you can slip the bag over the handle and through the top rear zipper pocket (downside is that if you already have something in the rear pocket, you have to be careful of things falling out. There is a pocket in this section though for things like a boarding pass). 4) Open side pockets!!! which work for a water bottle or phone, etc. 5) Shoulder strap is really comfortable and I appreciate the clipping mechanism- you have to line up the clip with the holder in order to release it which is great for safe keeping or accidental releasing; also, the clips of the shoulder strap are hidden in the side pockets-another thief deterrent. 6) Front zipper compartments filled with pockets/sleeves/clips are great for those small items you want accessible (though these can get hard to use if the bag is really stuffed). Cons (these are just based on my personal preference): 1) I'd like one more full length pocket in the front, right above the two small pockets. I'd rather put an iPad there than in the back or main compartment. 2) You can really stuff it so if you're not careful, this bag can get heavy. 3) Again, this is just me, but I would love the straps to be longer so I can carry it like a purse. I know they make women's versions of their totes but they are always either missing a should strap to wear is messenger style or a pocket that will accommodate a water bottle.

I have wanted this bag for a long time but resisted because of the price. It's a great bag though. Very sturdy, well built and durable. I have other Tumi bags too & I really like their quality. They are worth the price.

This bag is perfect. It has lots of compartments for better organization. The design and quality is excellent. I take it with me whenever I travel.

This is a great bag. I have been looking for a bag like this one for about a year. It has a light colored inside lining which makes it easy to find stuff in the bottom. Though the bag is pricey it has the features I wanted. Pockets on the outside to hold large water bottles was a must. It is so well made it will last for years. Zappos as usual delivered overnight with no hassle.
