Herschel Supply Co.  Classic Pack XL

Old vs new classic backpack. They got rid of the second cup holder, the zipper pulls are no longer matching in color and the top strap is nylon instead of canvas. Those were some of my favorite design features. I’m still not sure if I will keep it.

was looking for something i could easily travel with on airplanes, exceeded expectations, was comfortable to wear. i love the fabric and padded shoulders.

Backpack seems well made, but has no interior pockets whatsoever. I've never had a backpack without interior pockets to help organize the small stuff. It would also ben nice if the exterior water bottle pocket could be wider to fit larger bottles. I purchased the pink color, and liked how it wasn't super "pink" in the photo. However, I was not expecting how bland the color is in person. It is more of a taupe with a very slight pink tinge to it. Definitely more of a neutral tone, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but just wasn't what I was expecting.

I bought one of these backpacks when I was going into my freshman year of high school and it lasted until I graduated! it just had a few wear marks where my binder sat in the back but that was about it. Since the zipper pull had fallen off, I was able to get a new one for about 75% off and used that coupon to get another one for college! If you are looking for a long lasting, basic backpack this is the one for you! The price might be steep for some, but it is cheaper than having to buy a new backpack each school year!

I liked the backpack. it’s cool, the material is nice in my opinion. Good back to school backpack. To be honest the XL size is nice but NOT as spacious as jane sport backpack. if you want a backpack for school, i recommend any other brand. If you know you won’t carry a lot of things, this backpack is good. Overall though, great purchase and if you want to try it, i’d say give it a shot. if you don’t like it return it or get the one you’re comfortable with. The price is a bit much but again, the backpack isn’t bad.

Love the color and the fit

I purchased this backpack for my 15-year-old with high expectations given Herschel’s reputation, but both of us were disappointed. The overall look and finish feel quite average, and the size is smaller than expected. For the price, it doesn’t offer the quality or value we anticipated. Unfortunately, I’m left wishing I had returned it, as there are far better options available in the market.

Bought this to replace a bag that’s been in use for five years. This new bag fabric and apparent construction is not as nice as the old bag. The “lap top” pocket of the old bad is padded and well formed. This is gust an extra thin layer of fabric to create the extra pocket, Like every other basic bag out there. Also, I don’t see how it’s an XL size. It’s just average book bag size.

I have had this bag for just about one year and the fabric near the bottom of one of the straps has developed a hole by rubbing against my back. I have never experienced this with any other bag in the past. Also, in case any one is wondering, this bag was only carried to and from my car when I drove to work so it’s not as if I was wearing it for a long time every day.

This bag is perfect for what i needed it for, it holds all my valuables and little things that would take up space in my suitcase which in return creates more room in my suitcase. it’s very spacious but still fits in smaller spaces like under the seat on a plane. i definitely recommend buying this bag if you’re looking for a great personal bag for a plane.
