As a teacher, I bought this bag to finally be my ugly backpack going on and not look like a student, but as a lady ... The bag must because of their innards (laptop, books, notebooks, about vital things) to withstand a lot and it looks as if the bag also particularly able to withstand. The Henkel alone pleases me very well. I am not a fan of obvious, silver zippers. The view here but from yet elegant enough. The belt is due to the carabiner times really stable. As mentioned in another review, it would not have been bad if there would be even a zippered pocket in the bag. But this one has outwards two (hopefully not the bulges like this). I can see the bag for people who carry a lot or heavy things and still want to look elegant with it, highly recommend it.
