    I bought mine in 2019 for the sole purpose of being my carryon and travel bag while overseas. I simply love it! Love how secure it is while traveling. It’s a timeless bag and believe I will continue wearing it for many years happily.

    The eastlisa canvas tote bag actually reminds me of Hermes Garden Party, too.
    Thanks for making this video on suggesting more budget friendly alternatives. Love it!

    Probably the best Prada bag investment as far as longevity. I have all mine since the 90s and can still wear them. They actually look cool a little worn.

    thanks for the review. I just saw this backpack in the store and was thinking of upgrading from my Lululemon backpack. I had a Prada nylon bag for 15 years and the nylon and leather held up so well (knock on wood). the Prada backpack has gotten so expensive now so I got a Lululemon backpack. according to your video, the lululemon backpack is much more functional. it has deep pocket in the front for cell phone. and it's all zipper closure and it has a big buckle closure for security. the only CON is that the nylon got scratched within 9 months and so did the hardware. that's why I went to the Prada store to see if the Prada one can do better. but I definitely want a functional backpack (already have many pretty and not functional bags already). I don't know why luxury stuff is less functional than popular brands.

      Hello there! I will have to check out the Lululemon backpack in the future. I find it so odd too why luxury goods can sometimes be less functional. I think some luxury items are more “statement” pieces than anything else. 🤣😂 Another viewer did mention to me that the newer Prada Nylon is in the “renylon” material, so maybe the quality is not as good as the older ones? I have never seen the renylon in person so I’m not sure of the quality level.

      @@mikokitton you can make a statement piece with anything. for luxury items, we are making a brand-specific statement that's has some prestige and culture associated to it. In reality, the most 'functional' backpacks are just regular school backpacks. I found Lipault's backpack elegant and functional. they are like Longchamp on a backpack.

      @@mikokitton I bought a Prada cardholder a couple months ago. I recently discovered that one of the three nails on the Prada Logo plaque is slightly shifted when compared to my other Prada bag. So I went to the store to discuss that just on Monday. I can't believe that the only 'statement' feature on the cardholder is not made to the luxury level. So I am disappointed in my second Prada purchase. hope they will fix it under the manufacturer's warranty.

    Thank you for this review! I have not found many reviews on this backpack in the small size. I just got mine from Fashionphile. I know you said the buckles are hard to get in and out of but are the leather straps hard to pull in and out of the buckles? The one I got is super stiff and passing the leather strap in is not easy.

    • @mikokitton
      @mikokitton  2 місяці тому

      Hi there! Mine are on the stiffer side for sure. Definitely not easy to pass through on mine either.

    Thanks for the review! How comfortable are the shoulder straps when your bag gets heavy?
    I really like the size of it but the one thing that really bothers me and is stopping me from getting it is the nylon shoulder straps. Somehow I feel like unless they are padded, such straps would dig into my shoulders and flesh.

    • @mikokitton
      @mikokitton  8 місяців тому +2

      The straps are actually really comfy! I think it’s because the backpack is so small that you can’t really fit too many heavy items in it for it to dig in.

    I bought this because I was looking for a functional luxury backpack I can use when I’m out with the kids. However, I end up not using it because of how hard it is to access things. The straps also dig in!

      That is most likely as I don’t think my bag was made using the renylon material. The price point is so high nowadays. Hopefully the new material’s quality is just as good or better.
