I actually really like this purse, I had been looking for a good backpack style bag for awhile and had already tried a few and this one has been my favorite so far. Some of them are just so small, they don’t work for me. The size of this on is perfect for me, because I like to carry a bunch of “just in case” items. Pretty much anything I’ve ever needed but didn’t have at some point is in my purse, just in case. Even with all of that in there, I can still fit my 12.9 iPad Pro in the bag. Which is the main reason I was looking for something bigger. I’ve had the bag now since February of this year, I think, and considering it is PU leather it has held up pretty well. There’s only a little bit of wear and tear on the bottom. I use the bag daily and I haven’t had any issues with the zippers, I don’t see any loose seams or tearing. Mine does have a few loose thread ends sticking out here and there, but that’s something I think is just expected with mass produced items…The previous bag I purchased had very…strong smell when it arrived. I don’t really remember this one smelling too bad. It did have an odor but it was pretty typical and didn’t bother me much. Overall, I think it’s a pretty good bag and would buy it again.I have had this bag for a few months now and it is great. Only thing I would say makes this bag a 4 stars instead of 5 is because I know that the fake leather won’t be able to stand up to time. Other than that, this bag is the perfect cross between backpack and purse. It’s a great size and there are plenty of pockets that are placed all around the bag. The main pocket is almost elbow deep from my fingertips at the bottom of the main compartment. The pockets on the inside are great as well so I don’t have to use so many zipper pouches to organize my purse. Absolutely love this bag and hope to buy more colors of it! I’m also a new mom so I use it to pack my baby’s stuff on small outings where I don’t need her diaper bag and I don’t have to compromise space in my bag for my stuff and hers! The side pockets are great sizes too because I can put a pretty big water bottle in it and it isn’t difficult to put in and take out. Great buy, I highly recommend.Apricot is beautiful - a beige-like almost pink, but still neutral.Backpack seemed well designed, but the shoulder strap fit awkwardly or maybe it was too short.The zip around to open the main body of the bag was my main issue. I couldn't easily open and close the bag.I also found myself wishing for a lighter colored interior so I didn't lose items instantly into a black hole.And the studded look is not preferred.I'll have to keep looking.I ordered the darker gray and I absolutely love it! Its a bit bigger than I had expected; however, its very durable, attractive, and unique. I've only had it for a few days, and I've already received so many compliment's. This bag is affordable and well worth every penny!I bought two backpack purses from this company and like them both for different reason. This one fits my small laptop and so many things. Great for travel and the straps are comfortable. I like how deep the pockets are and I only worry about the front zippers being vertical. So far nothing has fallen out.It is holding up to daily use and rough handling. It has loads of compartments for excellent organization. My main complaint is lack of structure ar the main mouth requiring 2 hands to zip it closed. It must be closed to sling it on the shoulder, although the studded stop can be used as a shoulder strap AZ long as you don't sling it around (if it is unzipped) like many of us are aptto do.It's bigger than I thought, but in a good way. Perfect for what I need to put in it. As a owner of 2 businesses, I carry a lot of stuff. Didn't want a traditional bagpack so opted for bagpavk purse. Haven't used it yet, so can't speak on wear and tear, but the size is perfect.This was a gift for my daughter and she loves it. She uses it constantly and stuffs everything in it that she needs and it is holding strong. I thinking of getting her another one in a different color.PLEASE SEE EDITED REVIEW BELOW INITIAL REVIEWInitial product and review:Arrived in time, exactly as shown. Love the colour, size and numerous pockets. I carry a lot with me and it fits everything I need.However, after 3 uses, the teeth of the main compartment zipper began to fall off. Was able to return it without any problem. Ordered a new one, will assess quality once used a few times.EDITED TO ADD:After returning the initial product and receiving the new one, am again very disappointed with the quality. I initially bought it as it was ideal for use when travelling. However, after 2 weeks of use, the teeth of the main compartment zipper have again started falling off, to the point where the zipper won’t fully close. By the end of my trip (after about 12 days of using) the main compartment zipper had started completely separating and wouldn’t stay closed. Extremely inconvenient as it was my only option while travelling. Though I love the design, I can’t recommend the product based on quality.I will be returning for a refund if the company will allow.
