IN LOVE! I bought the last one. Hesitant at first because of the price, but it is indeed WORTH IT.Me encantó. Bellísimo ?I loveee this bag! I went on a trip during Christmas and took this bag everywhere. It was the perfect size bag pack! I simply loved it. I carried my things as well as my son’sI’m a huge huge huge Disney fan! ALSO a huge fan of everything Kipling? So when o saw this backpack I couldn’t resist! It arrived quicker than stated and it did not disappoint! It’s absolutely beautiful and I’m so happy I bought it! Highly recommend!Perfect!Good quality! Pretty niceSo upon arrival I instantly fell in love with this bag it was a simplistic cool functional type of bag I was going for. Exactly 10 days later one of the side pockets popped at the seem and it wasn’t over stuffed so I could not understand why. I’m sad no and will see if I can returnI liked the product a lot. However, I accidentally scratched my finger on the Velcro and got a cut. It hurt! I donated the backpack. Kipling must replace the Velcro with magnetic snap closure.I’d had this backpack on my wish list for a few months, as I couldn’t decide if it would be suitable. I wanted something for daily use and of a size that I could fit everything in for work. Finally made a purchase and so pleased I did. It’s always difficult to gauge the size of a bag online, even with the help of measurements. If you’re looking for something small, not too big then this is definitely not the bag for you. It’s a cavernous bag with plenty of pockets for all of your bits and bobs. The big selling point for me was the weight, it’s not a heavy bag before you’ve put anything in it. Very comfortable to wear with adjustable, padded, webbing straps. It’s Kipling so you know it’s really well made and will wear well. Hoping it’s going to be waterproof, not been tested yet. All in all really pleased with my purchase and would highly recommend. ?I love Kipling and have many bags but this is definitely inferior quality. The straps slip, won't stay up and even on minimum length are far too long and it bag sits badly and slips off my shoulders. I will have to cut and stitch it for it to be comfortable. My love affair with Kipling may be over. It is a big bag and useful size if you put a lot in it but too big for as an ordinary handbag.I wanted a larger bag so size is good for me IF I can fix these slipping straps. I can't afford to waste £40+.Overall this product is good for the price. All the usual Kipling features EXCEPT, disappointingly no internal key fob. I have many different Kipling bags & they all have a key fob. Maybe a small issue to some but it’s very useful so I know I’m going to miss this feature.So really easy to carry around, either as a backpack, when you are more or less unaware of any weight or by holding the loop, or one of the long, adjustable mesh straps. The overall colour is a perfect light blue denim, this will match most outfits.I love the size, there are the two side pockets for sunglasses, keys, perhaps, the outside oblong pocket for a phone, zippered. Two interior pockets for all the bits you need, a loop comes down over the front one, and one zippered at the back for items that need to be more secure. I enjoy the Kipling gorilla who sucks his thumb attached to the zip, very cheerful and jolly.I have been using this for several weeks and find it perfect for my needs, the front phone pocket is my favourite, simple to quickly extract my iPhone 6+ from even with quite a large case. Altogether using this makes me feel young and bright, ready for adventures. Hands free!No key fob so was returned. This was always an excellent feature but due to Kipling skimping on quality they've seemingly decided to do away with the fob. I won't be buying any more Kipling and have been a collectors for many years.
