Yes, EP is right, it's by Philippe Starck for Samsonite. It has retractable shoulder straps too, and is padded inside for laptops. Sadly it isn't available anymore (for some years now).

Absolutely amazing! I can believe how much movement there is in those shots over such a short time. Extremely impressive Hubble team!

Natural selection.
