Help me, I wish I'd never seen these back packs. I saw them on holiday in London but, even though I hadn't come across them before, I could tell they were a fake of a good make iykwim
I wish I'd never seen them. They cost a fortune and were aimed at school kids originally but I really want one
How can I tell, other than the price tag, if they are copies and does anyone know if they are worth the £

Its a lot of money for a bog standard backpack. I see them a lot around here and they do not age well, look tatty and faded.

You are paying a huge premium for the name badge, as it is a very basic bag. I think Kipling backpacks are far better designed, with a padded pocket inside for a tablet/laptop, external water bottle pocket, padded straps. I have used mine for work and holidays for 4 years and it still look as good as new. Mine was £60, so that’s worked out at £15 per year, and it has taken some punishment!
