Protege 22" Black Rolling Backpack with Telescopic Handle

The Protege 22-inch Rolling Backpack is the perfect traveling companion I have encountered so far. Made from a rip-stop like material, the bag seems to be very sturdy given this material. It is pretty much like a school laptop backpack but it also has rollers, so it is a very versatile bag. The bag can be opened all the way just like any ordinary piece of luggage, so you can put overnight clothes in it. Also, it has a pocket inside wherein you can insert a medium sized laptop or whatever folder you may need to carry. On the front are two zippered pockets to put accessories or what have you. And on the sides are also two zippered pockets to store whatever you need to be stored. As mentioned in the description, this is a rolling backpack meaning it is foremost a backpack as I have described. But you can also convert this to a rolling piece of luggage if you find it to heavy to lug around especially at airports or railroad stations. The backpack stays can be hidden and then you can unhide the handle to convert it to a a rolling bag. I have not yet tested this in real life as I still have to make my travel plans this summer. But definitely, this piece of luggage is going with me. I would highly recommend this bag.

I absolutely love the Protege Rolling Backpack! It is made with high quality material so it is definitely rugged and can take a beating. There is so much room in this backpack, it could be used as a carry-on for a short trip, for a busy high schooler or even to bring up groceries if you live in an apartment. There are several compartments that will keep your items well organized. I like that you can use as an everyday backpack or, if you load it up and it gets heavy, you pull out the handle and it rolls. Love it!! I always say, when a product offers a 5 year warranty, it's high quality. I also like that the roller handle has a compartment that zips up so it doesn't get in the way when you use it as a backpack. The rollers are sturdy and don't get stuck in cracks, on stairs or rocks. My family takes several small trips per year and this is favorite backpack. I will be using the Protege Backpack every day. I will definitely recommend it to friends and family!

Just what I was looking for. First, it’s very roomy. Great quality. It can be rolled, or there’s also a handle. Many useful compartments. Large enough for long weekends, and then some. Perfect travel companion. Airplane compliant. I’m so pleased with this bag.

First of all this backpack is very lightweight, has a lot of pockets, one on each side (super tall) pocket that would easily fit a bottle of water. Two pockets on the front (the top is smaller and would fit a phone perfectly) the bag overall is trendy and can be used by a male or a female, however i think it suits a guy better. The inside is very spacious (see my picture) has a space for a laptop which is padded (the laptop compartment is not in the back of the bag but the front not sure if it makes a difference to anyone but thought i would mention, and im guessing the reason is better protection due to handle being in the back). As far as the handle goes, it is sturdy and well made. Seems to withstand heavy items. It has one pair of wheels in the back and at first i thought it doesn't stand on its own, but it was because it was empty, as soon as i filled it up it stood on its own without needing to support it. Overall, i think it will go with us on lots of trips. :) if only covid will not interfere ;)

When packed heavy, you can unzip the little compartment on top to extend the telescoping handle and use it as a 'pull-behind' roller bag. If you're packed on the lighter side or just need your hands free, strap it on as a backpack! In addition to the inside clothing straps inside, there is a padded pocket for a laptop (or whatever), and there are 5 outside pockets (two zippered on the front, one zippered on each side, and a velcro-closing slim pocket on the back). Whether used as a carry-on on flights or a simple overnight bag, this one's a keeper!

I like the design, the colors etc. And just as an FYI I don’t think it will fit more than a 15.6” laptop in it. Mine fit just perfectly and that’s what size it is. Seems to have plenty of cushion to protest the laptop. Plenty of pockets to hold other office items for transport. The only negative I have, and it’s slight, is that the wheels don’t feel like they roll smooth. It feels like they’re being drug at times rather than rolling. But I had no issues pulling the bad. All zippers seem to open well and smooth too.

When my bag arrived I opened it to look inside and explore the different pocked areas. The first thing I noticed was the top zipper on the outside was gapped open so I had to unzip it and zip it back up to close it. However, there is a problem where the zipper teeth done line up so I know this will happen again. Then I opened the zipper to look inside and saw the back zipped area, I unzipped it and saw it was covering the handle that pushes down inside the bag. So as I zipped it back up the zipper head came completely off. The heavy duty zippers that keep the bag closed are perfectly fine, so maybe this was a fluke. The problem seems to be the smaller nylon zippers. I think for a rolling bag, all zippers should be heavy duty. The bag has 2 side pockets, two pockets on the front, one is small, the other large. It has a velcro pouch on the back and another area behind the shoulder straps that you can slip an umbrella or laptop, or books down into. On the flap has another large pocket with a velcro strap. upper part of the bag is a zipper that hides the handle for pulling it along behind you. The inside It also has straps you can tighten to lock down a laptop, etc. The wheels seems very well made and the bag easily stands on its own without tipping over. There is a handle on the bottom of the bag in case you want to carry it instead of using the rolling wheels. You can also use the shoulder straps and use this as a backpack. I really hope the company fixes the zipper problems because all in all this is a really good bag.

This bookbag was amazing when we initially purchased it in September. My son used it for school only. However, the straps detached multiple times after the 2nd month and is now irreparable, the fabric on the bottom of the bag is compromised, and the wheels are crooked making mobility difficult now after only 4 months of use. Really disappointed in how quick the bag structure deteriorated.

Defectively made zippers, not water proof or resistant, under-side not road-proof/resistant. Had to replace the zippers at least once, and the the under-side has wear holes from water leakage, and no place on outside to store a 42 OZ coffee thermos or water bottle.

The Protégé 22-inch Rolling Backpack is very spacious and will hold most (if not all) of your necessary short trip items or school supplies. It is 22” tall, 6.5 to 7” deep and about 14” wide at the base and tapers as you move up the backpack. It is roomy with lots of pockets to hold your necessary items including a 10” x 13” pocket to hold a tablet or small laptop computer and 2 zippered pockets on the front; one of them has slots for pens, pencils and a calculator or cell phone. The backpack has a push-button handle (under a zippered cover) that easily pulls out when you wish to roll it. The wheels feel like hard plastic that roll smoothly and that makes steering easy too. When the wheels are not in use and the back pack is being carried on your back, there is a flap that is secured by a Velcro® like fastener to cover the wheels so they do not irritate your back. The straps are padded and adjustable for a perfect fit. They can also be put under the flap for storage when the wheels are in use. There is also a handle on the top, so that the backpack can be carried like a tote. I was happy when I received this backpack and knew I would be able to use it. However, I found the quality of the backpack lacking. I am not going to be able to use it as much as I wanted because there are a couple of things that need to be fixed. The first problem is the flap to cover the wheels is sewn in on one side (see photo) and will need to be cut free, but that may cause the flap to not work properly. I will cut it if I decide to carry it on my back. The second problem is that when I went to zip the inside liner that covers the inside back of the backpack (where the pole comes through) closed, the zipper head came off; it had nothing to stop it (photo attached). The zipper is also made of a thin metal. I am going to hand sew across the zipper because I really want to use it, but I would not buy one now. I do NOT recommend the Protégé Rolling Backpack because it arrived with 2 defects! I give the Protege Rolling Backpack 2 stars because although it can still be used, the uses are now limited until I can repair the defects, but there is no guarantee the repairs will last. Please if you purchase – double check everything. Note: I received this product as a promotion.
