This is a very well made backpack - 2nd time purchasing! My son Carrie’s the first for 3 years to school but the zipper broke but the backpack is still in great condition. This will more than likely last him the next 4 years through high school!
My two high schoolers love them, they look study. Will see how they will hold up.

Great Features however tears easily

I bought this backpack 5 months ago and I loved it for the many features it had. The many compartments helped me manage my OCD and organised everything perfectly. However, for the price, the quality is not bad but definitely could be better. In just two months I had fabric tears on the part where the straps connect to the main body. In 4 months I had tears on the water bottle mesh and it's beginning to spread. Other than that, it's a great backpack and would recommend buying it.
I believe this will be an excellent travel bag for all my personal care necessities as well as my laptop and electronics. Last year I'd purchased an expensive Nomad Lane Bento Bag which I liked a lot. However, it wouldn't sit well on my hard-sided rolling carryon luggage. Plus it was a very firm item that didn't allow much wiggle-room. My daughter travels with and recommended this XBT backpack as a more versatile alternative. Although I haven't traveled with it yet, I've been able to pack all my Bento Bag necessities in it with enough organization to find what I need -- and there's room to spare. So I'm looking forward to using it in a few weeks when I fly again.
the bag bottom is thin, doesn't seem durable, Seen other high Sierra bags better than this
