I highly recommend this expandable (28-32L) TRAVEL backpack. Many companies make mediocre products to complement their better known merchandise. This is not one of them.
The backpack is made of partially recycled material and has a canvas like water resistant exterior. The handles are well thought out and there is an elastic side bottle holder. The pack opens separately from a top zip or full clam-shell style and is lockable. It also has a handy waterproof compartment to hold a wet swimsuit, etc. The Aion contains two padded compartments to hold your tablet and a large laptop. There is a top zippered pocket that holds your small items like earbuds, cables, etc. The shoulder straps are comfortable and have an adjustable cross strap. The above pics show these features.
After using it on a four day trip I think it's a well thought out and high quality product. It also fits under an airplane seat. Thule has made a great backpack. Who knew?
