    I love that their backpack is made from recycled material. It’s definitely very nice quality. I have had the backpack for 2 years now and really enjoy it still. I got the slim back pack and it holds QUITE a bit. What I enjoy most is probably all the hidden zipper and pouches. Super convenient.

    The laptop compartment is quite small, will only fit a laptop (I shouldn’t be complaining) but it does get pretty hard to get your laptop out of the front is super full.

    I bought a light pink backpack pre-pandemic (not sure when, though!). I use it every day as a purse and laptop bag combo. I like how much I can fit into it while it's still a pretty small bag. I find the little pocket on the top to be super useful for keys I access regularly and my ear buds. The insulated side zip pocked has been useful for water or a small can of soda (don't judge me!) I want to keep cool until lunch.

    I like the bag a lot - so this is nitpicky stuff. The laptop section is *lightly* padded. I'm not actually sure it would keep my laptop intact if I dropped it or it fell off a chair, but thankfully that hasn't happened. I wish for two things: 1. that I could machine wash it (the light pink color is holding up well for as much as I use it but now that covid is a thing I just wish I could wash it once a season), and 2. that is was 1" taller overall so that my laptop wasn't so tightly packed into the bag when it's full, but other than that it's a great basic daily backpack that fits a lot of stuff.

    I love this backpack! Its low profile look, while still being able to fit SO MUCH! They come in a variety of different colors, each having their own personality. Ive traveled quite a bit with this bag and have always been surprised by how much I can fit without it feeling too heavy or too disorganized. The pockets throughout the bag feel very thought out and intentionally. Something important to highlight is their customer service is absolutely fantastic! I originally bought the The Backpack in color Jam Red, after having it for a bit over a month, they released the color Leafy Green. I fell in love and shot them an email explaining the situation. They allowed me to do the exchange, no questions asked and it didn't cost me anything! I love this bag, love this brand, and love their mission! My only complaint is I wish there was a few more pockets and a zipper pocket inside the main compartment. Aside from that, I highly recommend Day Owl!

    Day Owl is so good! I love the mission behind the brand and their products really hold up. I bought the tech pouch and fanny pack. Both are extremely durable and shipped very fast. I couldn't recommend more Day Owl! Might have to purchase a backpack next. Also, the packaging is reusable which is also a plus. So far have nothing but great things to say about the brand.
