I am a customer that looks at an item and then say yes I like it, which was the case with this backpack I thought it was a brown with orange zipper which I was thinking would look really cool. When I got it however it was an army looking green with a neon orange zipper I did not like it at first because of my disappointment but my son does. it is a very unique color and is very strong.

A couple of people have asked me where I got it, I usually point at them to Academy :D, it's a great backpack, size is just perfect, and the design is great.

It is good backpack. I was searching for plain, black bag with no logos on it, and I am happy.

The backpack was not for me.  It was a gift for my grandson.  All I can say is that he was very pleased with it.

I love this backpack! It did smell a little when I first received it, but it went away over night. It fits everything I need it to and looks stylishly nerdy XD

I was so worried about how this backpack would be when I first bought it, because of how reasonable the price was. I was so so pleased when I got my backpack. The color was beautiful and all in all it's a very high quality and sturdy bag. Everything about it is perfect and I especially love the shoe pouch! Two thumbs up.

I spent a few days thinking about this backpack and if it wold be big enough for my use. For school I have several books and other materials that I have to take with me to class each day, and I just wasn't sure if this little backpack could handle it.

Despite its appearance, this backpack can hold a lot of stuff. I was able to fit two moderate sized textbooks and one small one in the larger pocket, while also putting notebooks and folders in the second one. There was still room at the top for a pencil case, calculator or any other small items. I was impressed. It was heavy when I put it on my back to test out how it felt, but it was as comfortable as I imagine it could be. I really like the way it sits on my back, it doesn't drag me down as others have before. I'm petite so this is the perfect size for me.

I did not get this backpack to carry my laptop in, though it does fit, if barely. It's a 15.6 inch laptop. Any bigger than that and you might have some trouble.

I'm very happy with this backpack and can't wait to start using it when school starts.

I wasn't for sure if I would like this when I ordered it. I needed a bag that could hold my babies things and mine. It was a plus that it turned into a backpack. It turns out I love this bag! I have room for what I need plus extra stuff! There is one zipper thats a pain, but it still opens and closes. You just have to hold the other side when you zip it. Yes, I would recommend it to other people!

"I received the backpack and it looks absolutely amazing. Initial impressions are:-

a. Good sturdy built
b. Good finish
c. Decent Water repelling capacity but I would advise using an external rain protection to avoid water
d. Very functional and as said great tactical backpack

Recommended for 3-4 day hiking trips if packing is done efficiently. I am happy with the purchase and the vendor

I have yet to use this puppy, but so far, I love the way it looks and how many pockets and how much space it has. My last backpack was a JanSport which finally tore in a few spots after many years of use (of course, I've ragged it out over the years and would stick it in the washer every now and again, which I doubt you're supposed to do). But if this one is anywhere near as durable as the last one, I think I'll be more than satisfied. I mean, they ARE guaranteed for life, so as long as I don't stick it in the washer, I should be good.

I bought the green color with a 50% off coupon in exchange for my honest review. I would describe the green as a military green or some sort of pastel olive. I actually like the color, it adds character and blends well in nature. But it is something to point out. The first time I used this backpack I got a compliment from a co-worker "cool bag, reminds me of the one I used to have before the airport ripped the strap." I fit GoPro equipment, Beastgrip, and iBlazer lights and the usual day things like a lunch in glass containers, phone charger, a macbook, external hard drive, and a jacket. Everything fit nicely with plenty of room to spare. The pocket on the front of the backpack should be used for delicate items or smaller things that you don't want to lose, this is where I put my external hard drive, couldn't fit my phone along with it though. Another nice feature is the breathable padding used for the straps. This seems like a standard on backpacks now so if your backpack doesn't have this, it should. There is one thing that I don't like and it isn't a big enough deal to remove stars. I am short, like really short, and the place where you tighten the straps only goes so far, so the bag doesn't fit as snug as I would like. For that reason the bag bounces on my butt when I walk. So if you are short this may not be a good fit. The handling on this bag is very nice, easy to toss and store. I'm happy with my cool bucket shaped canvas backpack overall. I can't wait to take it on a hiking adventure.

(I am rating this product based on its aesthetic and practicality.) There are two versions of this backpack: the Medium size is the one that comes with a strap that you apparently have to adjust on your own to the metal loop. The Large backpack, which is what I am reviewing, has built in padded straps like a traditional backpack. This bag is ideal for school or light traveling. I haven't used it yet but upon testing and examining its initial features, it has everything that is promised! I am curious to see how it will hold up as the year progresses. One major thing to mention is that all the pockets are roomy except for the water holders on the side. The material is not by any means stretchy so depending on the circumference of your water bottle, it may or may not be a good fit. I tested it using my Blender bottle which was a very tight squeeze but made it in there (while the rest of the bag was empty). However if you're someone who uses regular plastic bottles it should be ok. Appearance + price is what originally convinced me to buy this bag. Its competition was none other than the Herschel "settlement".
I can't quite say that this brand's colorways are aimed to be gender neutral so to speak but I guess that depends on the person! It is however more affordable than a Herschel bag and has about the same amount of features! So, what your decision on buying it comes down to price, looks, and lifestyle.
All in all, Leaper is pretty reliable !

In a house with two kids, no matter how many we buy, it always seems like we're one short. Or maybe we just have too many choices; and, it confuses the decision. I don't know. But, there's never a wrong time for a new backpack. Enter the ZipIt Shell Backpack.

On initial examination, it looks like a simple yet colorful backpack. Zipping it open however you're treated to a wealth of interior pockets, pouches, zippers, and compartments. That helps tremendously when it comes to organizing the various sundries you stuff in there, which is great for early school-age kids. At 12x16.5x6 inches though, it's not very big. Now, it will hold up to a 14" laptop. Unfortunately, I haven't owned a laptop that small in over a decade. So, for you commuters it may be a bit more accurate to say the pack will easily hold an iPad Pro or Surface Pro 4. I wish it had some exterior storage spots, but I understand their absence given the overall design.

In terms of wearability, both the back of the pack and the shoulder straps are padded "for comfort". But, I found the shoulder straps to be so narrow (only 2 inches wide) that carrying any real weight in the pack made them uncomfortable over a period of time. That in mind, I wouldn't recommend this as an "all day" kind of pack. I also found that, because of a band connecting the shoulder straps (near the base of the neck), I had to loosen the adjustable straps every time I wanted to take took the pack off, which can be frustrating. It's a minor ease-of-use inconvenience, but an inconvenience, in my opinion, none the less.

The look of ZipIt's Shell Backpack is pleasing both in shape and color/pattern options. The shell is semi-rigid, providing a structured look. The shell does have some give to it, giving me some concerns that it could get creased if it's mishandled or squished. ZipIt does offer a Lifetime Warranty, but only against manufacturer defects. So, let's hope I'm wrong about the potential for creasing. If it gets dirty though, the pack is machine washable. With two kids that's a major plus.

Overall, it's a nice little backpack, as colorful as it is useful.

Pros:
- Semi-rigid shell
- A lot of internal storage pockets
- Colorful
- Unique shape
- Machine washable
- Lifetime warranty

Cons:
- Narrow shoulder straps
- Must loosen straps to take the pack off
- Interior "laptop" compartment is too small
- No external storage
- Minor production flaws

Takeaway:
It's a very nice little backpack despite some design flaws.

I've purchased backpacks in the past but they weren't the kind of backpacks to take on a trip. This is my first outdoor backpack I purchased. The two reasons I wanted to get a backpack was for 1) my upcoming trip to Europe and 2) a backpack for everyday use while I power walk across town to work. I made this purchased based on an video review. I was sold. The color was nice, as red is my favorite color. After receiving my bag and checking it over I felt like there was something amiss. The bag felt somewhat tight inside. I thought it might be because the bag has to get some wear and tear to loosen up. I brought it home, showed it to my mother and she wanted one. The one she chose was the Navy blue one. Once we received her bag I noticed a difference. Hers was somewhat bigger and had the room mentioned in the video review. I finally came to the realization that I picked the wrong bag. The two bags are featured together but the is no indication of how large this bag is.  I researched the Vortex Daypack coming across the video featuring the Navy blue. So by assuming that the two featured were the same, it was only after they were received that I found out that they were different. The red one is 25L while the blue is 30L. Looking at both images now you can see clearly the 25L, but not so much the 30L. Plus, the 30L only comes in blue which is the downside if you wanted to purchase the bag in red. Which is what I wanted but not what I got.

So, the love. Since I can't return the bag, I had to make the most of it. I like the multiple compartments as I'm a sucker for a bag with lots of compartments. There are 3 zipper areas. You can fit quite a bit of stuff in the larger compartment, but it is somewhat snug after a awhile. I tested putting in two small bags, one with portable game systems (DS Lite in red/black Brain Age 2 bundle case, PSP in Logicase, PSP game case, 4 DS slim cases, PSP and DS adapters, 3DS XL and Hori 3DS 24-game case, digital camera adapter, laptop, laptop adapter, snap folder and binoculars. The second bag contained a box of Lattemielle cookies, beef jerky, trail mix 10-pk snacks, and pack of Twizzlers. The second compartment held my digital camera, Seagate mini HD and bill fold. I hadn't even tossed in the travel blankets yet. Considering what I could pack would have worked better in the 30L bag. The bag is well constructed and durable. Shoulder straps are well constructed. The bag also has waist and chest straps for added support (which was something I was looking for in a backpack). My only problem with the strap clips is that they look too flimsy. They're shaped like a pair of scissors and any wrong move could cause breakage. So snap with care. It's a good solid backpack so long as you're not trying to overload it as it has a limit of how much you can fit inside. Mainly because the bag doesn't expand outward as it's 30L counterpart, but it's better than the 15L or 19L that are found in big box stores like Kmart.
