The side zipper provides quicker access, but its limited opening makes it difficult for reviewers to see inside and locate unfamiliar items. The Arris Pack's laptop sleeve fits a 15-inch MacBook Pro with room to spare and accommodates laptops up to 17 inches. The pack's clamshell opening lets reviewers access both sides of the interior completely during packing and unpacking.
The main compartment includes an attached dry-wet bag designed to separate dirty gear during transit. The large top compartment holds a tech pouch or packing cube, while its mesh pocket keeps smaller items from getting lost.
Reported strengths
- The reviewer found the adjustable upper back panel comfortable for different body shapes and easy to secure with hook-and-loop fastening.

- The Arris Pack's laptop sleeve fits a 15-inch MacBook Pro with room to spare and accommodates laptops up to 17 inches.
Reported trade-offs

- The side zipper provides quicker access, but its limited opening makes it difficult for reviewers to see inside and locate unfamiliar items.
- Reviewers found the hip belt less breathable than the shoulder straps, and it could leave them sweaty during airport travel.
