alright. 3 week review on the Herschel Heritage. shit is stylish. gets alot of compliments on the daily basis. However, the quality is a little disappointing. The pleather bottom has two mini holes or rips in them. ANd i'm always careful... I guess its from the weight. I carry only two notebooks and a binder too. Second, the stitching is coming apart from the inside. Gonna try to stitch it together. Thinking about walking in UO or nordstroms and say I bought it there and Im not satisfied with the quality or something and maybe switch it out with a different herschel. any of you guys experience this shit?

goruck...'nuff said

In all honesty I like the Herschel Heritage but I would probably switch the pleather bottom with real leather scraps haha. I dunno, I think it'd make for a more durable bottom.

I have the heritage in red and get a lot of complements on it. My initial thoughts were that it was too small, but I can fit 2 binders, a folder, 2-3 big textbooks, a graphing calculator and a bagged lunch just fine.

Need suggestions, a Blue Heritage or a Green Settlement? Do both have a laptop case?

I have the Little America, about 2 months worth and still holding up. Quality is a little disappointing though like already stated.

Porter bags are cool I love mine. Try looking into Outdoor backpacks if you want to get away from the Herschels/Jansport lol.

Actually quality on my classic sucks now

loose threads and the seam was coming apart today

it's stitched up now but it's hard to stitch right
I don't even think they have a warranty, I contacted them an hour ago

its crzy how fast they blew up, just last semester i was the only one who had a herschel backpack. Im not hatin though if everyone has it just shows they must be doin somethin right n ill just keep supportin them. Its not as popular as northface or jansport backpacks though and if high school kids use them at least its not as bad as those stupid kids backpack.
