Backpack for Sister!
This was a great find and I told my sister about the company and wanted to support them. She like the bag as she just had a major surgery and needed something in the medium size range. This is perfect for her as we all tend to overstuff our bags :)

Love it!
It's well built and has structure. Even better than I imagined!


Forget the "almost"--it's PERFECT!
For the longest time, I've been looking for a backpack that could carry a variety of things (laptop, sketching/painting supplies, notebooks, textbooks....you name it, I carry all kinds of stuff around on any given day). But also, I wanted something that fit my smaller frame. And something that was affordable and not blah. I'd been looking at the Sonu backpack in the fun multicolor print for months and was delighted to find it in the "almost perfect" listings recently. The only flaw I could find was that the print wasn't centered on the backpack's cover, leaving a fairly large plain black space which is perfect to display the various buttons I'm generally sporting, so no complaints, especially at such a reasonable price. Fabrics and trim are high quality and stitching is solid. This backpack is roomy, flexible, comfortable, fun to look at, well made, and supports a good cause. And the water bottle pockets really work, so you can pop the bag up on your shoulder without sending a stainless steel travel bottle flying. I could not be happier with this purchase.

From Work to Workout
