1st Great Bag! I have dragged this all over the world. It is tough, functional and goes just about anywhere. The only downfall (minor) is the screws on the retractable handle loosen up over time as well as the ones behind zipper inside the rolling bag. It almost caused me a major headache more than once, with the handle falling off in some country. Anyway, if you get this bag and I do recommend it. Get some lock-tight, back the screws out of the handle & behind the bottom zipper in the roller bag, slather that blue stuff on, screw it back down and you should be 100% good. I imagine this could happen on any bag where things are screwed in. For Eagle Creek being a top-of-the-line bag maker I would hope they address this flaw in future bags. One other thing, the screws on the handle face down as you carry/roll the bag, so if the make their way loose the are prime to fall out. They should move them to the other side of the handle so if they do loosen they don't fall off. The ones inside might fall out too, but at least they will be inside the bag. It is sometimes hard to find a screwdriver in a airport these days. Thank god for janitors, security, and other maintenance workers with the occasional screwdriver. One other thing, on the backpack, the stitching where the backpack straps near the O rings has loosened on one side. I usually have the pack loaded up when I travel, yet it seems to be a little weak on that item. I'll need to have that fixed soon. Safe Travels All

Wheeled luggage is ideal for sidewalks, but backpacks are far more convenient when walking over uneven terrain on the way to class. So why not enjoy the best attributes of both with the Eagle Creek Switchback Max 22?

The bag boasts 3,900 cubic inches of storage space, with a zip-off daypack that measures 1,600 cubic inches by itself. Storage chambers include a large main compartment, an organizational panel for paperwork and travel necessities, a fleece-lined interior pocket for electronics or sunglasses, and side zip-away pockets to keep water and other quick-grab items within easy access. In addition, the Switchback Max 22 is remarkably comfortable on the back thanks to the adjustable padded hip belt and the breathable foam back panel. The hip belt and shoulder straps combine to distribute the pack's weight evenly and comfortably over the long haul.
