Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

i bought this backpack back in august of 2016, and i've been waiting a while into the school year to review it because i wanted it to be as accurate as possible. for starters, i am a pretty small person (about 5'3) and i'm in college, so i need a backpack with a lot of room but also won't drown me. this is the. best. backpack. ever. it is very light weight, it stores a LOT, the laptop compartment fits my laptop perfectly, the side pockets fit my water bottle and an umbrella, and there are many pockets to keep yourself organized. it is also very durable. i have used this backpack trekking to class in heavy rains without an umbrella and everything inside was still in tact. i also throw my backpack around a lot, i use it as a pillow in between class, and i leave it laying around on the floor all the time. it still looks brand new, and it looks clean. the straps do not hurt my shoulders, despite carrying probably the weight of a small child. and it does not make my back sweat after walking in the heat for long amounts of time (something that i have a problem with in other backpacks). and! when i set it down, it stands upright, and doesnt tip over onto the ground (something that REALLLLLY bothers me). before this, my favorite backpack was an $80 north face backpack. but now, that backpack is trash to me. i recently used it again because i saw it, and after 2 days i decided that this cheap and boring black bag is at least 10000000x better. get this backpack.
