Mi-Pac backpacks

Does anyone have one of these? I'm looking for a backpack that is comfy but stylish. There are several made by Mi-Pac that seem to fit the bill but I'm worried that the straps look like they might dig in if the bag was full. I use mine every day for a 40-min walk to work so comfort is of the essence.

Bumping as I'm looking for a rucksack for my commute. Love the leather Herschel ones by they are so pricey and have heard from friends that the Kanken are roomy but the straps are rubbish and rub if it's heavy. I cart my laptop everywhere plus books, lunch etc

It's nice but as you said the straps don't look that comfortable.
It isn't terribly expensive, so perhaps you could try it.
When it arrives, before you use it try putting the same weight as your normal daily bag contents in it.

I have a laptop bag that seems to weigh far too much empty, so am on the lookout for a replacement.

I think it looks nice but ditto the straps- look like they may dig in. Also will it keep the contents dry when it rains.

Not comfy. I can't wax lyrical enough about my fossil leather backpack. It was £££ but I've spent £££ trying to find the right one. This is it.

Have a look at the mi-pac website for more designs. My dc have the children's styles with roomy strap & they're very hard wearing. They've had them a few years now & all I've done is wipe them clean & they're fine. One downside is that they don't have an external drinks bottle holder.

I feel like I have fallen down a rabbit hole and am obsessing with backpacks. Current faves:

Inwood which one do you have? I'm a sucker for a leather backpack and I also love fossil.

Following- I am putting something like this on my xmas list... I currently use a very soft (but lovely) backpack from accessorize. I need something more solid to stop books etc getting damaged
