Would this would work as a nice weekender backpack? To hold a day or two worth of clothes and toiletries? Thanks!

Absolutely. I fit a 15.5 inch laptop, 3 shirts, 2 shorts and a toilet bag pretty snugly.

I purchased the backpack for school books, binders and supplies for my daughter. There is sufficient space in the backpack for these items. I'm not so sure weight would be an issue for the amount of groceries that would fit. If you are thinking of using this for small purchases at a corner market, or something along those lines, it may work. However, bulky items will obviously limit your space. You may be better off exploring a different option if you expect to purchase more than a handful of items. Additionally, this wheeled backpack would be a little difficult to clean if any of your groceries "leak" inside. I purchased the backpack for school books, binders and supplies for my daughter.

It is a big day pack. Lunch, rope, socks, gorp, jacket and lots of stuff like that. I don't think it would hold any sleeping bag etc. but stoves and water and whatever you need to go out for the day is no problem. It is a great pack.

It would hold a pair of shoe and a small amount of clothes. I use it for carry things back and forth to work and it is perfect.

My son stuffed (I mean stuffed) clothes in it and it held up great. I guess it would depend on what you're putting in it. I think clothes would be fine.

This backpack is small. I could use it as a carry on if I used it for small items. My grandson uses his for swimming and it works great for a towel,goggles and swim shoes. He is 8 and I have never checked out the space. I hope this helped somewhat.

Hmm, not this tank bag; I would opt for a larger one, or add additional stowage for a weekend. It can hold flipflops and a cap, billfold, water bottle, toothbrush, sunscreen. Maybe a tiny tee! It is handy, but tiny.

No, you can't fit any clothing in the bag. That's about the only downside. I switched over from a Filson computer bag/briefcase and traveled with it extensively. I could get all of my toiletries and a couple of shirts, eytc., into it am live out of it for 3-days. But - it didn't protect my computer as well and I got tired of carrying it as opposed to a daypack over the shoulder. Always a trade off.

I think that under occasional use it would be a great bag. I was using it for daily commuting and it seemed to to not hold up under such frequent use.

It is great for travel but may be a bit bulky for school. I think you could find one better suited for that situation. That being said, I LOVE this backpack!

This is not a huge backpack, I bought it for when I want to go light. I also have a Lowe pack that you might be more interested in for you size. Take a look at this one. Lowepro 350 AW DSLR Video Fastpack (Black)

It's pretty small, good for a day pack. You'd be pushing it to pack enough in it for an overnight trip.

I think this bag would be big enough. It is on the bigger side. I am an over-packer and this bag worked just fine for me :) Lots of pockets too!

I guess it depends on how much equipment you're lugging around. It's a smaller gym bag than most use but it's deep and actually holds quit a bit. I used it travel for 5 days and it held all those clothes, shoes, toiletries, etc. I think you'de be safe but I guess you're the only one who can make that determination. :)

Yes this backpack should hold all those things well. Not much more than that though. Not sure if it is waterproof.

I guess it depends on how much stuff you want to take with you on the plain. It will work fine as a bag pack, but not big enough as an carry on.

I guess that would depend on how much stuff you need to bring and whether you are carrying a laptop as well. Regrettably, the way the compartments are organized, you would have difficulty putting in anything but your computer and whatever documentation you need to bring. Albeit, this is an excellent bag that is very well made, it is best suited as a mobile office and not a weekend bag. Hope this answers your question.
