Have the zippers held up? The zippers on the bag I bought from a different manufacturer failed pretty quick.

The zippers are OK... the seams are a bit of a problem... it looks like the stitches were maybe too close together ?.. the material is pulling out of the seams in a lot of places.. its' still functional and th handles and wheels are great but the seams coming loose on the outer material kinda suck

The zippers are holding up but are a bit oddly situated so, using them is clumsy. After two uses the straps have pulled away from the bag. We are taking the bag to a tailor for repairs already.

If you mean, how secure is the zipper, I've had no issues it has a velco patch to seal it & it stays close :)

I've been using it for the last couple of months without any problem. However, I'm a light user and gentle with zippers...

I just received my bag yesterday... I agree that the bag is very roomy with several compartments and completely disagree with the poor quality comment. Nothing poor about it - no strings dangling and "ALL" the zippers work fine. It's a GOOD bag but that's my opinion.

I've had mine just over a year. None of them have holes, they have been on two international flights. One of them had the zipper snap fall off. That's been our only problem.

This is really good bag and I like mine too but the zipper on the bag has problem after used for 3 days. I contacted the seller and then they send me a new one. But you need to pay the shipping fee back to them.

Yes, my lunch bag has held up under some rather tough situations. My son has put his baritone on top of it. I have accidently left it outside and the bag still looks great. It also cleans up nicely. The zippers are strong, I tend to over stuff. This is very good lunch bag. I hope this is helpful.

Hi. I read some reviews where people reported this, but I have had no problems whatsoever. AND I have washed several batches of wool and also alpaca fiber in them (fine hairs)...got some stuck in the zipper a couple of times, but was able to release it without damaging the zippers. I really like these bags.

I've had a couple pullys connected to certain zippers break off but nothing too serious otherwise!

The zippers seem decent. Whenever I get a new item with any kind of zipper, I take a piece of paraffin wax and wax up the zipper really well. It helps the zipper function and keeps it from deteriorating as well as helps it resist water seepage in the rain. I've had this for over five years and the zippers are still doing great.

Just returned from a trip during which I took four different flights all with no hint of an airline problem, as for the zippers I have found them to be really robust but I do use a strap to ID my bag.

Yes-an inexpensive one that is under sized and hard to use. My first order the zipper was broken, Amazon replaced and that one was broken as well. I finally ordered the deluxe bag separately. That fit easily and was constructed better. I am contacting the company for warranty on the broken bags.

After receiving your question I checked mine out to see if there are any tears and it looks like the day I got it. Honestly it's the best bag I ever owned. I think they have a lifetime guarantee so get with Maxpedition to see if they will repair or replace.

I'm a roadie, so mine doesn't get the wear and tear of a mountaineer, as mentioned by Polarbeadr. I DO have a little trouble with the zipper SOMETIMES. For me, the only REAL problem is that although it is a medium size bag which DOES expand, it's still a little small to carry all my junk, which includes otc reading glasses, patch kit, co 2, pressure gauge and Tire Lever Set. I'm sure I have 1 or 2 other things in there, too. Just can't think of them right now. I must also mention that I have had mine for three YEARS! I must be very gentle!!For someone who does not need much capacity and feels that his rides would not be too rough, I would recommend it.

I haven't had any issues with it. I love this bag. Holds everything I take with me and it was CHEAP...but not cheaply made!

I had an issue with it coming apart at the seams. I emailed them pictures of the damage and a copy of the receipt and they shipped a new bag to me at their cost to Afghanistan with no problems. I just need to update my review of the bag that said the issues I had.

Yes, the blue held up really well. I was backpacking for three months shoving the back under bunkbeds at hostels and you could hardly see any marks. The grey reenforcement at the corners showed a little ware after coming off the luggage hold on the plane. I really liked this bag and the versatility it offers.
