KiplingCITY PACK Medium Backpack

I love Kipling, and found this, at a GREAT price, in the recent Prime sale - could not let it go!!!Didn't want or need another bigger/tote/weekend bag but treated myself as a birthday pressie anyway!!Has all the usual Kipling organisational pockets, tough but lightweight fabric quality and good looks!This bag will be used as a weekender, or even cabin bag for short trips as it is a neat size, but holds LOADS!!Had such a bargin with this that I bought a small version the next day, to go with it!!(Though how I am going to carry TWO backpacks at the same time, is beyond me!!)

I have purchased Black Noir City pack in medium sold by Amazon. I already own 2 older version similar backpacks from Kipling, so it is the same high quality.I really appreciate the pocket at the back which stay hidden. You can put your documents there, it is quite big. The deep black colour is stylish. It has taupe colour lining which is very luxury touch. There is no longer a long string with a little catch to clip your key ring inside of the bag which my old Kipling backpack has (only little jump ring on the outside of the bag). Please Kipling bring those back.The only thing: my backpack came with the fluffy key ring monkey (original) called Adriaan. While on the photo there's a plastic one (the one I wanted) instead. But I decided to keep Adriaan anyway as he is cute and I got attached to him.Overall I am very happy. I also purchased beige with red zip backpack for my mum as well.

The bag itself is beautiful, I chose this colour and I am not disappointed at all. Size is just right and with lots of pocket and compartment as expected with most Kipling bags. Love the style and comfort. Best of all, bought it on sale. Thanks Amazon.

Only just got it, but seems a great bag. I first ordered the 'small' version (there's also a 'mini' version) but found it too small so got this one instead. Expensive (prices vary enormously on amazon) but love Kipling so worth it. Side pockets would fit a narrow (500ml, 6.5cm dia) water bottle but not a bigger one (like a 9cm dia).The drawstring compartment is a little weird; it is very deep (handy, but also good for not finding stuff) and basically always open as the drawstring doesn't do much except look pretty. If you don't keep your bag upright, stuff will fall out of that compartment! So handy for non-vital stuff like a gloves, hat, scarf, tissues or bigger water bottle maybe. Wondering if there's anything I can do to make it close-able (glue/stitch in some velcro perhaps).A4 notepad (pukkapad) fits fine in main compartment, as does 13" laptop (note there's no padded laptop section, just a single space). The bag is not very deep so probably too small for lots of books/folders. Should be great for small hand luggage on a plane and walking around city or nature. Internal zipped pocket quite small (wold have been nice if was a touch bigger so wallet etc would fit). Internal pen and phone open pockets work fine. Zipped pocket at the back is very deep and handy to keep stuff safe. Bought a chest strap (if only Kipling would offer these) as for some reason backpacks always end up sitting in my armpits LOL. Padded straps seem nice, although not overly wide and so heavy loads might be uncomfortable.

Really good. It was a gift and very well received. It looks good and should wear well. Great product

Bought as a birthday gift. It was lightweigh, comfortable to wear, stylish and held a lot.

A medium size rucksack, I would call the colour navy blue. Spacious for it's size,appears hardworking as all Kipling bags are. Extremely pleased with price excellent value

I love it. Lots of pockets. Good quality. And good value for money.
