Review on SwissGear® Maxxum Double Zipper Backpack by Monique Johnson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

product counterfeiting. Best in backpacks

I bought one of these last year and it's already worn out. There are two small tears on the back of the backpack. Very disappointed. I had one 8 years ago that I took to work twice to Hawaii, twice to Cancun, 4 days a week and after 8 years it had a bit of wear on the bottom and that's because it was mostly on that side. I photographed the difference and why I think this product is fake. The label on the back is different because not only are the shoulder straps longer on the original, but there are also some markings on the strap. The difference can be seen in the plastic handle. There is a good mark on the handle. The fabric straps are much thicker and larger than the original. I just want Wenger to bring the original and I'm willing to pay more because they're definitely worth it. Finally, the middle pocket's zipper puller looks much stronger on the old one than on the new one. I'm sure many of us would like to get the old or original backpack back.

Pros
  • Laptop accessories
Cons
  • Poor manual
