Review on Herschel Little America Mid Volume Grey Backpack: Versatile Backpacks for Adults and Kids by Dan Deng

I bought this backpack for work/school to replace an old Jansport backpack that ended up falling apart. Got a disgusting purple bag at 50% off when I was a student on a budget. It took many years and I wanted a new bag that was at least as durable and not purple. We'll see what happens over time, but this Herschel definitely looks and feels like it could use a bit of tinkering. A note on belts with buckles. They are aesthetic. Don't solve them. I've seen reviews of people complaining about straps snapping and snapping. When I first received the bag I opened it thinking this was the only way to open the bag. And then, as I struggled to untie it, the very end of the strap came loose from the bag. I thought I "broke" it before realizing it was a magnetic clip. The straps are stiff and would be a real pain if you had to undo them every time you need to open your bag.
