### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great for looks, not for heavy loads
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 September 2017*

It looks great. It's ethical. It's a good size. However, I found that I wanted to wear it tight and high on my back as I will be carrying several books and a laptop around and the straps were too long and loose to let me do that, so it was a bit uncomfortable to wear, and also the bottom of it with a laptop in slightly dug into the small of my back.
