My Third Hershel-Best One Yet
on March 16, 2025
Posted by: Ellis H.
I had a similar model but didn’t have side pockets for drinks. After 3 years I figured I would get a new one. It’s a little softer than my first one but otherwise the same great quality! I like the environmental component of how these are made and I am by no means extreme on the subject. I just think it’s responsibly brilliant! You will not be let down my this product. I work in Chicago, walk to work and use this bag daily plus to travel twice a week. It’s excellent!
The bag arrived with an awful musty odor. The smell was so bad that the entire bedroom smelled musty from the bag. I put it out in the sun and sprinkled some baking soda inside the bag for an entire weekend. It didn’t help with the odor at all. I took it back to the store and they wouldn’t take it back because of the baking soda dust. I even wiped it down with vinegar but the musty smell wouldn’t go away. I ended up just throwing the backpack away! So awful
Had this backpack for 10 years. Day in and day out, every day. Finally got a new one even though my old one probably would have lasted another 10 years. Love this backpack. I wish they would have kept one water bottle holder on the inside however, they also took away the padded laptop sleeve, and did away with the business card holder. Little sad, but I can make it work.
