This bag replaced my teacher workbag of 20 years and I love it

This bag replaced my teacher workbag of 20 years and I love it. The color and materials are gorgeous. Lots of compartments to keep organized and it’s comfortable to wear. I get lots of compliments.

Stylish and Beautiful

I had been looking at this backpack for months trying to decide if it was worth the cost. I have had the backpack for a few months and it has been great!! Everything fits and it is comfortable to walk with. I have to carry a laptop along with a few books and my lunch in my bag and (depending on the size of my lunch) it all fits and doesn’t feel heavy on my shoulders. I will say I find the bottom of the bag more spacious so sometimes I need to work it through the top which seems like a tighter space than the bottom.
Overall no regrets and will use this for a very long time.

Beautiful bag, just doesn't hold up to use

The bag looks beautiful, but after one use, the lining inside ripped. I need a reliable travel bag so I don't know that I would purchase again.

Love my New Commuter Bag!

I have been looking at this bag for months! I finally caved and bought it specifically for an overseas trip. The pockets and space along with the handle for a suitcase made travelling a lot easier. I also really like the strap option so I can carry on a shoulder vs a backpack style. Would recommend this bag to anyone!

Great bag Thought the cup holder inside was a good ideas but doesn’t really work

Great bag Thought the cup holder inside was a good ideas but doesn’t really work. You lose too much room inside. The bigger size was sold out and has been for awhile… I waited and waited and finally went with this one. It really is super light and comfy.

My grown up girly bag

I just can’t say enough about this bag. I’ve been searching for a great professional bag that won’t kill my shoulder and isn’t bulky and this nailed it. I get compliments on it everywhere I go.

I love the color and all the pockets

I love the color and all the pockets. However, it's hard to take advantage of all the pockets because it fills up fast. On my first trip I noticed several threads along the outside zipper and strap. I hope it holds up with all my travels!

Comfortable, stylish and useful

So stylish, so useful. And so comfortable!! I’m so happy that my wife found this bag for me. It’s also very sturdy and still. Comfortable when fully loaded with my laptop, charger and all my usual hand-bag items like business cards, spare underwear- you know all the smart women keep a pair handy 😁

I get compliments on my bag and you will too. My favorite feature I didn’t know I was getting was the strap to slide over my carry-on-suitcase handle. Love this bag.

Very spacious

Very spacious. I’m able to fit my my lunch in it. A little disappointed though because on of the zipper pull came broken

Love it!

Good quality and nice packaging. Love it! I have to be mindful of what I pack because my MacBook weighs it down a bit, but it’s good for daily light use.

Comfortable and stylish!

I am loving my commuter bag for work! I have difficulty with carrying all of my things in a crossbody bag because of a previous shoulder injury. This backpack is so comfortable and I can carry my water, coffee, lunch, tablet, planner and essentials with ease! Plus it looks great! I appreciate the inside pockets for organization; Nothing gets lost. Love it!

Purchased the berry large crossbody and back pack to add to my travel luggage

Purchased the berry large crossbody and back pack to add to my travel luggage. The sizes and color is a perfect match with my luggage. Love the quality and I’m a pocket lover, so the pockets in the back pack was just what I was looking for. Looking forward to purchasing another set.

I absolutely LOVE this backpack and the Heritage Green is perfect!

I absolutely LOVE this backpack and the color is perfect. I love green and it also happens to be one of our school colors. I work in the Tech Dept and I go between two campuses all day and I needed a backpack that wasn't just functional but well made and pretty. Every day I get compliments on it. The leather is soft but sturdy and it holds its shape. I use it all day Mon-Fri and I am so impressed that it looks like it did when I opened it for the first time. I will definitely purchase again when I need to. I can't wait to see just how long it continues to hold up.

Love it!

Love the backpack! Works great, lots of compartments for laptop, planner, charger, credit cards, envelopes. I like that not only does it have straps to carry on your back, it has a single strap to use as a shoulder bag as well!

Great bag for university!

I was on the hunt for a good backpack that was minimalistic (for my internships), spacious (for university), looked pretty AND within my budget and this bag has been so great so far! There's so much space for all my things and I thought the straps wouldn't hold up well but I've had no issues at all :) I was also initially unsure about the zipper that opens at the top since I'm more used to a regular backpack zipper but I really like seeing everything in my bag at once. Also the in-built water bottle holder? GENIUS! I'm never worrying about it tipping ever again :)

The bag itself is a bit on the bigger side size due to its width but I was also happy with how the vegan leather can get bend onto itself if I'm in a crowded space.

I love supporting small, ethical businesses and I will definitely buy from P&P again!
