Excellent for my daily commute.

This backpack is great. Stylish and clean, it definitely has gotten people to ask where I'd get it from. Holds all my daily travel necessities, and still has plenty of room for more. One neat thing that isn't shown in pictures is that the slit in front of the backpack has a camo design hidden inside. A nice surprise once I received the bag. Comfortable padded shoulder straps make this easy to wear, and so far it seems to be pretty water resistant. This was an excellent buy.

The absolute perfect size for my 13" macbook (with a padded cover) & a decent amount of books, without getting paperwork & similar things lost inside like with larger backpacks. I love that it has two places to carry a water bottle. The straps are also very comfy.

So far, So very good

Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2015

Being a college student, I needed a backpack that was durable with NO SAG (jansport wasabi backpack). I've been using this backpack since classes started on January 12th, so a little over a month now, and it's been a great one to carry around campus. I was initially a little worried since I had a couple heavier textbooks and I was afraid the backpack would sag like the jansport one, but nope! It kept its shape and did not hinder me from having good posture...always a plus, right? So far, it's been great and even though it may seem like it's not much, considering that it only does have 1 outside pocket, but I found it to be no problem. The backpack also features 2 inside pockets: one for a laptop and one small pocket on the side to hold your phone/earphones. *two thumbs up*

I would buy it again

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2017

Verified Purchase

Great bag! I recently bought this bag when I broke my ankle. I am a female and needed something durable and stylish to help me carry my things to work. I found that other backpacks typically made for females were not durable enough. This one is great. Sometimes I wish it was a little bit bigger but I am 5'2 so the size is actually probably perfect for my body type - and I can't carry too much while on crutches anyways. I would love it if this bag had another exterior pocket for a drink/water bottle.I get compliments all the time from men and women. Overall, a great quality bag especially for the price and style. I would get the same one again.

Stylish and comfortable.

Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2014

Bag was comfortable to carry with lots of room for peripherals. Laptop compartment was secure, though I would have preferred it to be more properly padded. Not too big even for petite people at 5.2 ft (around 1.6m) tall.

Update: After carrying this around for two weeks -- did realise one thing I disliked: the zipper pulls. The leather zipper pulls look great, but they "flake" somewhat, and the flakes just go everywhere. That's somewhat messy. More importantly, the zipper pull isn't sewed or glued down at all. It's fastened purely by friction, sort of "knotted" into place, but not very securely IMO. One of the zipper pulls fell off without me knowing once (and left me somewhat bumped out about it, until I found it at work... phew.). It's a small flaw, but I do recommend checking that the zipper pulls are tight and fastened properly when carrying the bag around, or figuring out some method to stitch it down.

Lovely bag still. :)

Amazing Bag, Exceeds Expectations

Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2014

Verified Purchase

This is one of the best backpacks I have owned. It is simple yet stylish. It's not too flashy but has subtle elements that catch the eye. The main pocket is spacious and the laptop compartment seems roomy enough to fit a 15 inch laptop; it fits my 14 inch Chromebook with room to spare. The diagonal front zipper gives the backpack a slimmer profile than other Herschel bags and adds a nice look to the Parker bag.

The material of the bag is thick and seems pretty durable, you can tell from looking at it and feeling it that it is a quality product.

I would recommend this bag to anyone, although if you are a professional you might want to go with a different bag or the all black Parker bag.

Straps are Made of Fancy Sandpaper

Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2015

Verified Purchase

I was so excited about getting this bag. We're talking, wait by the window like a rabid Doberman for fedex excited.
It's smaller than I thought-- measure it out for those of you like myself who can't visualize demensions. Small thing, and it does hold what I need, so, not a big deal.

The big deal is: the straps are extremely rough. How rough? I wore the bag (with a book, iPad and spiral notebook inside--fairly light--) while wearing a tank top and ended up with part of my skin rubbed raw. I wasn't on a trek, it was from my car, a block or two and back.
The straps are not soft or smooth or made of a material that is considerate of being worn by a human person with skin.
The straps are like a very fancy sandpaper.
5/5 for trendy adorableness and print choices. 1/5 for functionality in real life where you wear it on your back in the summer. 5/5 for straps being used to sand down my deck chairs and file my nails.

Good choice.

I usually go for backpacks that look nice, but end up being cheap in quality and uncomfortable to wear. This backpack makes carrying my books much less of a chore. It is also visually appealing. I like the leather zipper straps and the red liner. I have seen many Herschel backpacks on my campus, but no one else seems to have this style. I would recommend this for either gender, though it fits me perfectly and I am 5'5" / 115 lbs.

Avevo già un Herschel backpack, che purtroppo ho perso. Ho deciso di optare quindi per questo modello meno ingombrante e un po' diverso dal classico che ormai a Milano ha chiunque. Come al solito Herschel non delude mai: ottima qualità, comodità e fattura.
