“I love this backpack, I had to get the large due to my laptop size. but I wish I could tweak a couple of things. •The handles on the top stand up slightly too tall, they touch the bottom of my head. •I also wish there was a small pocket on the front somewhere that is just big enough for a phone and or keys. It’s a hassle taking off the back pack completely to get your keys. •The biggest problem I had (and it’s a short person issue) was that the straps didn’t cinch enough, so I had to tie them in a knot, otherwise it was hanging down to my bum. I love the light green color and it’s very well made. I’ve already gotten compliments on it.”
“I originally purchased this pack for my trip to the U.K. but since Covid-19 has changed my plans I can happily take this cute, pink number with me to work and trek around my local parks. I’ll break it in before I take flight; I’m glad it’s made from recycled plastic bottles. It’s comforting to know there are people out there creating products from our trash to our to good use. Digging the fun pockets, especially one for my water bottle! Thank you for being a company that turn Man’s trash into treasure ♻️❤️✊”
“I love my new backpack! I cannot express enough how pleased I am with it! The color is beautiful, and the fabric feels so sturdy. I know this is a bag that will stand the test of time. I purchased this bag (mostly) for work. With the convenient design and positioning of the numerous pockets, it is so easy to pack, organize, and find everything I need for my day.”
“I used it for the first time yesterday. I like the idea that Idon'thave the loose adjustment straps flapping around for me (or others) to trip over. The pack rest better on my back so less lower back pain. I'm over 70. My pack is usually full so the old pack sagged down, and I usually had a sore back after a couple of days of use. I'm glad I bought it.”
“It is really amazing, I even threw away my handbag. The small version is a real TARDIS, so much fits in there... And the weight is balanced in a manner youdon'teven notice you carry a water bottle around. The material is high quality from fabric to zip. Though I was skeptical in the beginning as it is rather pricy, Idon'tregret my purchase and this bag was definitely worth waiting for❤️.”
“I love my new backpack (I checked the tracking page multiple times a day lol). I was so pleased with the craft and intention put into all the features. I love the color and durability of the backpack and can't wait to take it on adventures, outings, etc. That said, there were a couple things that would have pushed me to the edges of my satisfaction.
The pockets:
- the side pocket (not the water/wine bottle pocket) feels quite small. I can barely get my keys and wallet in there. I guess it would be good for lip balms and mayyybe hand sanitizer? I had wanted to use it for things I reach for often (like my wallet), since It's so convenient while wearing the backpack. But oh well.
- the wine bottle pocket feels tight as well - maybe mine is a little defective? The top part of the pocket becomes quite narrow, I can't imagine trying to fit a wine bottle in there at all.
- top pocket is also quite small. I wish it was more roomy, but then again, since It's meant for sunglasses, maybe it doesn't have to be?
So why the 5 stars??? Because I do love it - I do I do! I love the style, the material, and ESPECIALLY the sustainability and positive economic and social impact of the backpack and the company. It is a gorgeous work of art, from the drawing board to the sourcing to the production to the use of it.
Thank you for a beautiful product and an even more beautiful and powerful intention for good in the world.”
“I am completely satisfied with this bag!! I ordered the larger size in charcoal. (I'm 5-7 140#s). I've received a couple compliments on it already and love showing off all the pockets. I travel often so its nice to have a carry on backback that holds all my essentials plus food. I teach brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and can even fold my gi in it. I love it so much I share the link with with anyone I think would love it aswell. Great design. I also ordered the matching cord organizer which helps keep things neat amd accessible. Holds so much but does not look bulky. Really ups your outfit, makes you feel more organized and professional, because you are now! Now that you ordered the Day Owel!”
