Stylish and Practical
I am very impressed with this alternative to the Herschel backpack. I bought the Nylon Green 600D polyester version. When choosing, pay attention to the material used in the style you choose; the newer versions Kaukko released are made with 600D polyester which is more water resistant than previous versions.These backpacks come with two external pockets for water bottles. Internal pockets include a laptop sleeve(this fits my 15'' laptop well but of you have a larger laptop it may not fit) and 4 smaller pockets. The main compartment can be sealed with a drawstring.Overall, this pack is significantly cheaper than the Herschel backpack and offers identical features. I am most interested in seeing the durability of this pack; after 1 month I have had no problems. The backpack is made well and has no visible flaws. I do expect this pack to last years from my initial impression

Bought it twice!
I bought this backpack when I went back to grad school in 2018. My daughter took it when she went to college in 2020. I teach middle school and work in three different classrooms. I bought this backpack again for use at school and it has been perfect to take all my grading, laptop, charger, and supplies from room to room and to home.

Nice backpack. Not too many medium sized storage pockets but has a few small storage pockets
Nice backpack. Lots of space to put stuff in especially for travel and long trips. Its a little too big for most of my college stuff since I would only carry a laptop + accessories, folder, and a notebook. Perfect for high school though.

Doesn't REALLY compare to a Herschel bag...
EDIT: 2 years later: I still have this backpack and have used it a ton. The bag straightened out and so did the pencil bag. The straps are still thin as they were from when I first got it, but my Herschel backpack's straps thinned out to the same thickness after only a couple years. I forgot to revisit this review but only remembered as I got an Amazon giftcard for a substantial amount of money and was eyeing a new Herschel bag in plum to switch things up. I've increased my rating to 4 stars from 3 stars before, and would increase to 5 stars if the straps were thicker. Other than that, it's actually pretty well made for the cost and I definitely love the side pockets which I use constantly. Good value for your money!PREVIOUS REVIEW: This bag just got delivered today and although it looks nice overall, like a lot of things from China (unfortunately), there's compromises to the structure of the bag. Perhaps it's because of the way it was packaged (folded in half and tightly packaged, thus compromising the structure), but the padding on the backside and the straps is actually pretty thin compared to the product listing photos and just slightly thinner than my current Herschel bag, a backpack I've had for about 4-5 years now. It also looks semi-permanently folded because of the way it was packaged.I would say this Kaukko bag's padding is about half of the thickness of my current Herschel bag which has padding that's gotten pretty thin over the years, and the primary reason why I wanted to replace it, which says a lot. In addition, the inside felt lining is nowhere near as soft to my current bag either, which is a bummer. Also, the outside fabric shell itself feels pretty durable, but the quality of the linen (or whatever it's made out of) feels way more synthetic than a Herschel bag, as well as the fabric of the inside red/white lining, which feels more "plastic-y" than the lining of my Herschel bag.It looks attractive and from the front looks comparable to a Herschel bag, so I was hoping for a really great bag to replace the one I currently own since Herschel bags are so expensive and this looked like it had great reviews for half the price, but it's really just good for temporary or light use for someone who uses it every day to carry my laptop, charger, wallet, planner, and for a mobile lifestyle. If I hadn't had my current bag to compare it to, I'd probably think it was just fine, but in all actuality, it's probably better for light use, but I wouldn't recommend it for people who carry a lot of heavy stuff in their backpack, like textbooks, etc. I will say that I like the extra pockets on the sides to carry water bottles and the extra pockets on the inside of the backpack, features that aren't on my current Herschel bag.Also, the pencil case that it came with was also folded tightly, giving it wrinkles. I'm sure it has to do with the fact that imports from China are weight-based so they have to accommodate and fit as many products in a tight space as possible, but it lowers the quality when you try to open it back up and it looks semi-permanently folded, and also makes the straps thinner because of the lack of air and tightly compressed.All in all, I'd say it's a decent knockoff, but in comparison to the actual quality of a Herschel bag, it's not really that comparable. I'll update this as I use the bag more and see if the bag straightens out better as it gets more breathing room.

I don’t know why I don’t see these everywhere!
I was using a NorthFace backpack before purchasing this. Aactually I was on my second NorthFace backpack, just because my old one was a year old. and I’m not complaining about north face because it’s a great product but I absolutely adore this and have not even thought about my prior two backpacks. I work in law-enforcement and I have to carry a lot of paperwork, a notebook computer, my laptop charger cords, my mouse, my multiple pen cases, Small items like my badge in small items like my badge and other small equipment items, Plus I usually pack things like deodorant and some personal items since sometimes just can go 12 hours or more. We don’t really carry items like this around with our uniform as we’re on the job but caring all that to him from home and getting it all packed up quickly is easy when you have Plus I usually pack things like deodorant and some personal items since sometimes just can go 12 hours or more. We don’t really carry items like this around with our uniform as we were on the job but caring all that to and from home and getting it all packed up quickly is easy when you have a great bag. I carry a purse also but I have been able to move to smaller purses because of switching to a backpack for carrying all my stuff with me to my job/duties. I like this one because it’s simple and I don’t have to maneuver things through the zipper. I never realized how kind of annoying a zipper book bag is until I didn’t have one. Everything I need to carry has its place in this bag and it gets in there quickly and easily and safely and then I just tighten the strings and close the flap. So easy so simple and so far it has been able to carry everything up put in it.And the price is unbelievable compared to what I was using before. Again not knocking the prior brand, as I’m a big fan of that brand, but the price and the durability and the resourcefulness of this bag has made it my favorite. And it’s just so pretty/cute/stylish, whichever works for everyone.I want another one, not because mine is worn out or messed up or that I need one, but because I just want one. We have family that live out of state so I’m thinking of getting one to pack items you need nearby, but not necessarily in your purse, on a 5 to 6 hour car ride.

Achtung!! Andere Farbe, trotz dessen toller Rucksack!
Der Rucksack hat eine dunklere Farbe als erwartet, trotz dessen bin ich mit dem Produkt sehr zufrieden.Das verarbeiteten Material erscheint qualitativ hochwertig, robust und wasserabweisend.Im Rücken- und Schulterbereich ist der Rucksack ausreichend gepolstert und ermöglicht ein angenehmes Tragegefühl.Er bietet ausreichend Stauraum für den alltäglichen Gebrauch.Vorteile :+ Material+ Rücken- und Schulterpolsterung+ angenehme Größe+ Vordere Tasche mit Reißverschluss+ Optisches Design+ Taschen/ Trennwand im Innenleben (Fotos)+ Platz für DIN A4- OrdnerNachteile:- Andere Farbe (grau, statt dunkelblau)Fazit: Der Rucksack eignet sich vor allem für die Universität/ Schule, aber auch für kleinere Ausflüge. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist angemessen, sodass ich den Kauf dieses Produktes empfehlen kann. Der Rucksack erhält lediglich 4/5 Sternen, da die Farbe nicht den angegebenen Bilder entspricht.

Starker chemischer Geruch und dreiste Verkäuferrückmeldung
Ich habe mir den Rucksack für die Uni bestellt, da vom Laptop bis zum dicken Ordner alles dabei sein muss.Bestellt habe ich den Rucksack am Di.25.09, ankommen sollte er am Do.27.09. Leider kam er erst heute (Fr.28.09), aber naja, der eine Tag mehr macht den Kohl ja nun auch nicht fett.Der Rucksack kam leider zusammengefaltet an, weshalb ein unschöner Knick in der Mitte entstanden ist.Hinzu kommt ein starker und unangenehmer chemischer Geruch; der Rucksack hängt nun schon seit knapp 7 Stunden draußen, langsam wird es besser.Der Rucksack an sich macht optisch einiges her, er ist sehr schön und die Farbe ähnelt dem Bild.Zudem ist er groß und hat viel Stauraum. Innen befinden sich auch noch einzelne Fächer, bzw Taschen, das ist sehr praktisch.Das Laptopfach ist extra noch mit Fleece gefüttert, das finde ich persönlich sehr gut und mein Mac dankt es mir auch.Insgesamt ist es ein sehr schöner Rucksack, praktisch und dennoch sehr schön anzusehen! :) Abzug gibt es für den wirklich störenden Geruch und den Knick (verzögerte Lieferung ausgenommen).Nach dem dritten Tag auslüften ist der Geruch immer noch da!Samstag, den 29.09 kontaktierte ich den Verkäufer, der mir antwortete, dass der Geruch völlig normal sei und ich den Rucksack einfach 1-2 Tage zum lüften draußen lassen solle. Absolute Frechheit, ein solcher Geruch ist definitiv NICHT normal! Sehr schade!

Impressed!
Very impressed by this bag. Exactly what I was looking for and cheaper than the well known brand that makes a bag very similar. The laptop section is padded and would protect your laptop or tablet well. I would recommend buying this one over the more expensive alternative!

Very sturdy
This backpack looks amazing and it's probably the best canvas bag I have seen around at this price. It's very sturdy, spacious enough for daily commuting or a day trip. Only flaw is the lack of a front upper pocket.

Very good backpack
The material is really great. I'm using it for more than six months and didn't had to clean it even once!You can fit really a lot into it and it hold shape fantastically. It's well though because you don't feel weight of stuff inside on your shoulders - comfortable straps.It's very good for every day and very good for walking and hiking.
