Bia Backpack - Black

I love all of the pockets and the fabric. I wish it was slightly easier to unzip the shoe pocket but I know I'll get the hang of it.

Hello I have this backpack in black and since my daughter decided to use it I ordered myself the blue one but the zipper broke from the beginning. Since there are two zipper I can still use it but it's definitely annoying... First it was only the big zipper and now it also happens to my shoe compartment zipper. I love this backpack so much but I'm really sad for the zipper and I'm afraid to walk with an open backpack in the subway.

Like other reviews my zipper broke! I think the problem is it is a thick, metal zipper which sounds great, but once it snags or bends, you’re screwed. It’s a double zipper so that’s helpful because I can zip one way if I can get it unjammed, but it still pops open.

But, other than that I loved this bag. The bow detail in the front is what sold it for me. I bought it right away when it restocked. It’s waterproof and so comfortable. I got so many compliments.

It’s too pretty to throw away! I’m so sad. It’s not even a year old. I bought it Aug. 2022.

I bought this bag in September 2022. Within a few months the zipper broke and I’m scared now every day I’m walking to work the zipper is going to pop open.
Unless you have tiny feet, shoes cannot fit in the bottom compartment that is meant for shoes. I’m a size 8-8.5 and can’t fit my running shoes in there no matter how I try to configure it. Also, if you put anything in the bottom compartment, it will take away the space you have in the main compartment.
If you have anything thicker than an iPad or MacBook, even if it’s the same size, it will BARELY fit in the mesh laptop holder of the main compartment without causing undo stress on the zipper and/or bag. I stopped using the mesh laptop holder completely.
Overall, for $230 Canadian, I’m not impressed with the quality.

I carry this backpack every day. I love how there is compartments for all my stuff. The only thing I wish is that I had waited for the red one. But great backpack. Love how there is a shoe area, at the bottom that way my shoes not get my extra clothes dirty

Yesterday was the first time i used this backpack with my yoga mat. Before , I used this bag, with just books and water bottle. When paired with mat (including water bottle and books), during the first hour the straps (see below) started to ripped. I finally had to give up and carried the yoga mat separately. So this bag did not hold up to what it advertised. It is not strong enough. Visually, this is a beautiful bag.
