We have bought this backpack for school (9th grade high school), as successor to a 4You who has done faithful service since the 5th grade, without anything broke. But I should write a review for the Eastpack yes now :) The required books and school supplies found in its predecessor, especially in full-time education is always just as space. The newly acquired model "Philosopher" of East Pack now offers considerably more space. Some classmates of my child, but found it a little too big (is rather trendy his school supplies in a tiny Gola bag to squeeze). My child has chosen the Eastpak in the color Black Denim. Our whole family finds that looks really good, not too stuffy, but not too much "chichi". The backpack has several "compartments" and space for a laptop. Front are several small compartments (Organizer), where minor things can be well accommodated, without having to look for it in the "vastness of Eastpak" long. An additional zipped the backpack can be extended again by a small amount if necessary. The shoulder straps that have already criticized elsewhere, are really a bit stiff and covered with a hard coating (which is probably the "anti-slip coating" that does not lead hopefully in the summer to sore skin - just a shirt maybe a little uncomfortable) , We will report. It would be nice even when the ground would be provided with a moisture-proof material - leatherette perhaps. Would be useful in winter and in bad weather. All in all a good price / performance ratio and highly recommended for those who need a "regular" schools, universities and durable backpack that looks good. In addition, this company offers several sizes and many models to choose from. Because there is something for every taste and every need something.
