Durable
I had my last Crossover for 8 years, and carried it everyday. No question what I was getting when the time came to replace.

Nice big bag, but has to be full or crumples
I love the exterior and the whole over all look and features of the backpack. But unless the bag is full it really crumples and doesn't stand up like I felt it should. The problem this creates is making it difficult to easily zip and unzip compartment zippers and the hook will become loos and unhook in front of the bag, see pic. There is ample room and padding for laptop and ipad in the pc holding area. It will support a 17" laptop which I don't need and makes it feel like the bag is too tall for what I wanted. This bag feels very tall and even so for me while I am 6' 4". There are a lot of places/compartments to put various items in that are handy for batteries, cards, etc. If you want to take a lot of stuff then this is the bag for you.

Excellent Quality, Wears Well
An excellent bag constructed from quality materials with clear thought put toward pocket placement and sizing. The major downside of the bag is the "Stuff it" pocket and the metal buckle on the front, though it feels quality, it tends to come loose. I regularly carry three laptops, their power bricks as well as an assortment of electrical tools with ease. I've carried this bag for 2.5 years daily and it does show some wear in the "smalls" pocket in the front. The exterior remains in excellent condition showing very little wear despite my general mistreatment. Overall, this bag is head and shoulders above every other bag I've owned (including two high end name brand bags).

Great backpack with big issues
I'm a full time employee, full time student and I work on film sets on the side. I require a lot out of a bag. Having said that, I like this backpack. I really do. I've heard great things about Thule's quality, and it is a well deserved reputation. This Crossover is made of tough material that I'd take on my toughest adventures. But the pack is poorly executed and the capacity is seemingly nowhere near 32 liters. I originally had an Ogio Renegade RSS as a daily driver a good pack for technology, but not very tough that I was upgrading from because it only held 27 liters and when I joined a major film set, I needed room for work, school and film essentials in one bag and the RSS would hold everything but some of my film stuff. Unfortunately, when I got this 32 liter Thule bag, it wouldn't even hold my work and school gear without filling up to its max. I don't know if there is variance with how capacity is calculated by manufacturer, but my Ogio can hold 25% more than this bag can despite being a smaller bag. And at even a modest capacity, the front accessory pocket becomes unusable and incompliant due to the contents of the main pocket pushing on it something the Ogio never did even when stuffed. Overall, the style, build quality and choice of material is good, but the overall execution is flawed and the capacity claims are misleading. Still, I was impressed enough by this pack to return it and get a Subterra 34L. Having said all of this, if you arent going to be relying on using all 32L of space in this thing, this will likely be a good buy for you. But if you're in the 95th percentile of extreme backpack users needing something a bit more serious, this is not your bag. It just doesn't cut it.

Great all arounder
I have used this pack daily for about two years. Big enough to use for an overnight trip without using a carry on.

longevity disappointment
I got this backpack just over a year ago and it worked awesome for the first 6 months, loved how everything fit (including my giant 17 inch laptop) and how comfortable it is. After the first 6 months one of the zipper seams came unstitched. Then 6 months later one of the buckles/plastic adjusters on a strap broke. I did a decent job with some superglue, but it makes me nervous to use. Then shortly after inside mesh pockets started to come apart. I've really liked this back pack and am bummed that it didn't last longer. My last backpack (not Thule) lasted over 4 years and I paid ALOT less.

Thank you for letting us know about the issue with your Thule Crossover backpack. The damage shown appears to be something that we would look into replacing under Thule's limited lifetime warranty. I reached out via email to get that process started!
