Targus EcoSmart backpack City backpack Black

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For £49 ex-VAT, the Targus EcoSmart City backpack is a sensible “commuter staple” rather than a rugged workhorse. It’s the sort of bag you buy for everyday travel to the office, trains, and light site visits, where you want decent laptop protection and practical organisation without paying the premium for a fashion-brand pack. If you’re someone who values sustainability branding and just wants something that does the basics well, it’ll likely feel like good value.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it if your day-to-day involves heavy loads, frequent throws in the boot, or you need seriously tough build quality and maximum weather resistance—this is more city-focused than expedition-focused. Also, if you regularly carry a lot beyond a laptop (work kit, chargers, documents, maybe a small tripod/tables), you may find it a bit limited compared to larger office backpacks. Overall: worth it for standard office users looking for a tidy, reasonably priced everyday bag; not ideal for demanding “carry-everything” setups.
