Rated 3 out of 5 by cmrtnx Love the design but other brands of backpacks are more durable Pros: This backpack is aesthetically pleasing. Good size for a few classes (I usually carry a small binder, iPad, pencil case, wallet, agenda and misc. items in the main compartment). Two beverage holders, with one being expandable. Lightly padded separate laptop compartment. The shoe bag comes in handy. Removable sternum strap. Easy access pocket is very handy. Water resistant and easy clean fabric. Cons: The reflective panel scratches easily. After one semester of school, some of the seams have become undone. For a $138, I am disappointed, considering other backpacks I've owned have lasted 4+ years. So beautiful but I'm not sure how long I'll be able to get out of it :( January 7, 2017
Rated 3 out of 5 by RDPD Only a few months in... I ordered the all day backpack just before the start of the semester, back in August. I don't carry around a lot of books, just a very lightweight laptop and snacks, usually. However, by the end of the semester, the seam on the front pocket (which I usually use to hold my phone and keys) had already started to fray and has developed a full-blown hole. I removed the crossbody bag that attaches at the front (which I left empty), as I imagine the weight of it is what caused the fray/hole in the first place. Otherwise, the bag is actually a perfect size, the water resistance is good, and the reflective strip is awesome. Just think that crossbody bag highlighted a design flaw, and if you buy one, remove it pronto! Who knows, maybe they'll make another one with that in mind. January 3, 2017
Rated 2 out of 5 by cardiochick Had it only for a couple of months.. So just through wearing this backpack to school for five months I've seen so much wear! The reflective paint came off, and one of the seams ripped connecting the "easy access" pocket to the backpack. Disappointing in that regard...Perfect size for storing school stuff though. But I expected more paying for a $128 backpack when my north face one, that costed around $90, lasted so much longer! December 2, 2016
Rated 2 out of 5 by fitninja it's okay. I love the dottie tribe pattern, that's the one I got. However, I was disappointed that it doesn't fit as much as I would have wanted it to. Also there could have been more pockets. I love the look of the bag but It could be more practical. Another thing is the sternum straps, they actually come off really easily. I use mine every day and one day I lost one of the straps, and I bike to school everyday, so losing it really sucks...I feel like I can't use it the way I wanted to. If only the straps weren't able to come off so easily. November 20, 2016
