Zip quality has plummeted
"I bought a herschel bag in 2016. The metal zip was so strong even under pressure that it did not break in 10 years. In my new bag, a thin plastic zip that will not last more than a year. Highly disappointed."

Reviews
Great quality but too small
"The bag doesn't hold a heck of a lot. 13" laptop, 1 binder, 1 set of gym clothes (no shoes), and a lunch bag is a squeeze. The bag doesn't fully zip open, making it difficult to get things in and out. The quality of materials and craftsmanship is on par with what you would expect from Hershel, but if using for a student who needs to carry textbooks in addition to the items mentioned above this will not work."
Love it
"Lightweight when carrying and spacious."
Size
"It did not fit my 16 inch laptop"
good design, but feels a little cheap.
"The quality has definitely gone down in recent years. You can feel the difference between the older bags and this newer one. One other thing I don't like is the back padding is lacking. Just like an extra cm of padding or rigidness would have been nice."
