Timbuk2 isn't the first name you think of when you start looking for luggage, and that's because they've pretty much only been known for making fantastic computer bags. They recently decided to kick things up a notch and jump into travel bags as well, and if you're a bag-head like I am, you'll definitely want to pick up one of these and put it to good use.

This bag is really two bags in one, because you get the full Suitcase, with an attached laptop compartment that can zip off and become its own bag. Perfect for business travelers! I took this one up to San Francisco for work, and I could literally check into the hotel, drop the bag in the room, unzip the laptop compartment, sling it over my shoulder and head off to my meeting. It doesn't feel gimmicky, but it just plain works for some reason.

The bag features tons of internal pockets, and also has hidden pockets behind the back padding. Internal compression straps keep everything inside tied down tight, and I was able to carry enough gear for three days in this thing, including my laptop, power cables, and external hard drive. It also has a luggage pass through so you can slide this down the handle of your rollaboard, if you need to travel with more luggage.

This thing works best for bloggers, techies, people on the go, and folks who just hate carrying more than one bag. It easily fits in an overhead, and the zip-off feature makes people look twice and turn green with envy.
