Cute backpack - low functionality

Originally posted on Herschel Supply

This bag is cute, I bought it so it could be a daily commuter bag for me for work (laptop, notebooks, planner, etc. ), but there are a few issues. 1. There is nowhere to put things like pens, tampons, any other small item. 2. The drawstring top is very annoying to open and I can see how it would be frustrating on a daily basis. I would return it, as I was looking for a good commuter bag, but this one was Final sale.

This bag is exactly what I was looking for! I have the larger standard size 23L bag and hav been using it for years. everything from work, to a day trip to a short backpacking trip, yes!! I bought this smaller one for smaller stays, as a gift for my husband who was looking for something for short work travel and it's great. the additional waterbottle pockets are wonderful! and the size and color are what he loves!! Cannot recommend more!

Just the right size and charm

I got the small bag, and it's just the right size for a city or nature excursion. It's sleek and comfortable, and just overall a great look.

I bought this backpack for my grandma and she loves it! It’s very lightweight and has a lot of room to pack. Not too bulky and not so tiny.

I bought this bag for my daughter for her middle school year and she loves it. Not to big but big enough to fit her books. Minus her lunch box. :)

Durable, Gorgeous!

Originally posted on Herschel Supply

Gorgeous, and durable quality! My laptop didn’t fit inside the sleeve but it’s understandable because it’s a gaming laptop and it’s quite wide. The laptop is 16 inch. Still, I can carry it inside. The pockets are functional and easy, as well as the bottle sleeve that expands with a rubber. The straps are also thick and overall, the fabric is definitely made to withstand years of use. Overall pretty satisfied!

Great backpack

Originally posted on Herschel Supply

It’s a little bit hard the material, but I think with the use of it it will be better day by day. The animal print it’s great.
