The backpack I wanted

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is spacious and I can put all my work-related stuff inside it. High quality and beautiful. There is nothing bad about this backpack

No

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't feel easy to pack items in the bag, kind of not user friendly. I feel more tightness to fill in the bag.

LOVE this backpack

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this backpack after using my father's for a trip and falling in love with it. It is practical, comfortable, has many useful pockets, the front straps that allow you to adjust the weight are very good for long walks. It carries a lot of weight and withstands a lot of use.

Not the correct color description

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very ugly gray color. It looks white in the picture, but it is not.

Good for high school

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this for daughter starting high school. She loves it. Says it will be the right size. It really does look cool. Haven't actually used it yet though

Horrible

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cheaply made. Straps giving way already after 3 weeks. Don't know what the extra piece is that's suppose to be holding/connecting the strap to the bag but it's just a nightmare. Bag is big and awkward for no good reason. Can hardly fit anything. This bag just a big bulky oval thingy that can only fit paper comfortably. It has a strange look, strange shape and very bizarre feeling when you put more than something very flat in it. Would like a refund asap. Terrible cheaply made overpriced product! Stop it

Horrible

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Can't stand this bad. So slippery and awkward. The back part is too hard and the shape is very bizarre... like long and wide at the same time. The bag does not stand up it's constantly sliding everywhere. Strange item. Will never buy again
