Amazing bag

I’m a nurse practitioner and do home care visits. I carry A LOT (laptop, medical material, books, etc) and I also walk everywhere with this bag and all that it carries. It’s such a comfortable wear. The straps are padded and the weight is well distributed. It’s made of a soft quality vegan leather and IT IS SO PRETTY. I absolutely love everything about this bag. I particularly like the outside laptop compartment. I can access my laptop, planner and pencil case without having to dig through everything. The main compartment is well organized and very spacious. BUY THIS BAG. You will not regret it.

Perfect travel backpack

I honestly love this backpack! I travel for work up to the high arctic frequently and this bag gets lugged, pulled, dropped, kicked under seats (by me hahaha) and still looks as good as the day I bought it! It has slid down ice roads, bounced on the back of quads, sat outside in -60, and is complimented frequently by my amazing colleagues ! I love the pockets it is clearly durable and the style and size are perfect! 5/5 for me!!

Perfect bag for all the kids!

This is my second bag from Poppy and Peonies. I got this to haul around all of my kids stuff. I have twins and with that comes double of everything. This bag fits it all and more. I had so many compliments the first time I used it! It’s soft, fits so many water bottles, and has so many pockets. I love it!

I love it

I wanted one of these backpacks for at least a year now and finally I just went out and bought it for myself. Best decision I ever made. I love it and I take it everywhere. It is so soft and has the best compartments inside to keep everything organized. I think every woman needs a backpack like this.!

So much room

I love this backpack! The separate laptop compartment is a game changer- it’s perfect for a laptop but also for papers and documents you don’t want smushed in with your other items. The main compartment is large and the bag stays structured so it doesn’t look collapsed even with fewer items. It can hold a lunchbox, gym gear, 2 drink mugs, even a 2L carton of coconut milk from the store easily! The chestnut color is so professional looking. Note: it doesn’t fit easily under a seat on the plane. Highly recommend this beautiful bag!

Love it

I debated between the multitasker and the detour for a while and then even the commuter. I didn’t love the shape of the commuter so I got the detour and I could not be happier! I love it there is so much room and your lunch containers don’t need to go in on their side they can sit flat! You can fit so many things in there !!

Unfortunately after minimal use, the interior pouch pocket became detached from the elastic. Likely not sewn together well enough as I had never used that pouch.

Since I am just outside of the 90 day return/warranty, they will not replace even though it is clearly a manufacture issue.

Have been happy with other products, but not very impressed with this.

Perfect gift!

I purchased this backpack for my daughter-in-law who started a new job. She loves it! She works part time at home and part time in office, so needs to have an "office in a bag:. It's large enough for her extra-long laptop, plus has all the pockets and space she needs for her day. She says the weight is really balanced as well which makes it easy to carry. And the colour is so rich and beautiful.

Love this backpack!

I was debating on getting this backpack especially based on some of the reviews saying that people think the straps aren't very comfortable or that the bag itself is too big. I am in school right now but only until June. After I graduate, I won't use a backpack for my everyday so I wanted a backpack that I can use afterwards for travel. The commuter seemed too small for a chronic overpacker. I AM HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASE OF THE DETOUR BACKPACK. The organization inside is perfect! You can tell it's definitely designed by women. I find the straps to be comfortable and I don't personally find the bag to be overly heavy without anything inside. I wanted cognac but it's not available; the chestnut colour is so beautiful.

I gave 4 stars because I wish the smallest arched zipper came with two side zippers. And also because I'm not sure how this will do yet for travel as I haven't traveled with it yet. I'm excited about the trolley sleeve. Some reviews say that the bag fits under the seat in front of you and others say it's too big. Only time will tell but it is the same size as the old raggedy Under Armour backpack that I used to use for travel and I can put that underneath the seat in front of me even when I overfill it. Definitely happy with my purchase overall!

Detour Chestnut Backpack

It is an amazing bag pack, my initial thoughts were it is too big for my needs, but the bag proved me wrong, it is the best bag I ever had, I am so happy with my purchase. It is a quality bag with a lot of space and very comfortable in carrying.

Great teacher and gym back

Love the size and softness. The color is a little fragile. I worry the top loop is going to break if I hang it so I’ve been careful and it’s held up so far.

Great bag!

This bag is beautiful! I love the interior drink pocket with the spot for the handle and that there were plenty of built-in spots for smaller and larger items. The bag great for a a weekend trip or world travel carry-on.

Perfect for work travel

Love this backpack!! I travel weekly for work and sometimes have to bring quite a few work related binders or folders with me and this bag is spacious enough to hold everything I need to do my job and add any personal carry on items for flights as well! I love all the organization inside the bag and the many pockets helps me from just throwing everything inside and having to rummage around. I love how professional it looks as well - I don’t feel like a student walking in with an old backpack anymore.

Absolutely Amazing

This bag holds everything I need and more. As a working mom on the go I can fit my laptop and things I need for work along with the kids snacks and water bottles for the busy kids on the go. This bag keeps all the many things I need to carry around so perfectly organized so no taking forever to find the one thing I am looking for, I always know exactly where it is.

Also Side Note the staff at Poppies & Peonies are amazing and so kind! I Recommend to everyone!

GREAT for any teacher!

I LOVE this bag for my teaching job! I set it up with all of the things I need for the day. It has SO many pockets it helps me get and stay organized.

Great bag

Great bag, wish the straps were a bit closer together at the top to help keep it on my shoulders better. It’s a little on the heavy side, but all in all worth the purchase.
