I’ve had this backpack going on FIVE, yes FIVE years. This backpack and I made it through COVID, 3 different jobs, and even marriage. Plus, I live in NYC and I frequently travel so this thing rides the subway with me daily, it gets flopped on the floor in my office, and it has been with me on numerous trips to Europe and South America. In fact, I write this review as I wait for a long haul domestic flight. I’m finally coming back to this page after all these years to find another backpack that has held up as well as this one. The photo is of my backpack today, after 5 years of wear & tear.

This bag is okay for me. Aesthetically, it’s beautiful. Yes, It has all the pockets and the key holder is nice. Outside of that, there are bunch of things that could use an overhaul. The USB charging port is antiquated. I don’t think I have used usb to charge anything since 2014. I would have rather them left a small opening for my own wire that could directly connect to my charger than install a .90 USB cord that is just in the way and essentially useless. The port is also glued into the fabric, so there is no taking it out without damaging the bag. The straps are closed looped which limit how much you can tighten the them. I am 5’7” and find I want to tighten the straps about another inch but can’t because of the closed loop. Because of this the bag tilts a little lower than I find comfortable. There is no chest strap unfortunately. Had there been one. It would have made a difference since I can’t tighten the straps as much as I want. Lastly, the straps aren’t as comfortable as the website and influencers make them appear. They are rather thin for a bag in this price range, IMO. It’s not a bad bag, but it’s not the be all end all either.

Just recieved my order. The blue as a gift for my sister and kelp for me which I thought might show marks being a lighter colour. Now I think not as it’s got depth and I love the colour. We are going on a UK and Europe holiday for 7 weeks with lots of day trips. This bag will fit all our needs for travel,. Plenty of room for jackets, umbrella, food and more. Just what we were looking for so that our hands were free. Quality looks amazing. Prompt delivery, inside one week, just north of Sydney.

They look durable and fashionable

The quality of this bag is pretty good! It’s stylish for work. However, I did think this bag would be bigger. It won’t fit my lunch bag, so I’ll have to carry it still. It does fit all my other work essentials and probably will fit a pair of shoes / change of shoes. The inside water bottle pocket is not secure in terms of holding a water bottle. The bag fits a 15.6 inch laptop. I have some pictures attached! If my work was not paying for a portion of this bag, I probably would not buy it. But nonetheless it’s cute and it’ll work for travelling to work while still being stylish. We will see how the quality holds up.

I love it! It looks good, it’s stylish, and has good compartments. I use it all the time, to go to yoga, to go to work with my two laptops, for day trips…

Love this backpack… everything fits that I need… and the phone charging area fits my own Powerbank and extra cords perfectly!!! My laptop has its own protective case but it fits perfectly in the laptop area.. have used for a weekend trip away and everything I needed all fitted perfectly… very impressed !! Head to Vietnam next year and this will be perfect as we’re planning on doing carry on only …

I mean what can I say… it’s a bag after all. At the end of the day it does what any bag does to be fair, it carries your stuff for you. As for the luggage strap, well, people have managed for generations to carry their luggage alongside their bags with effortless ease and I can only assume will continue to do so for many years to come. Overall I’m happy other people love it so much, I just can’t bring myself to fall in love with a rucksack! 🙂

Loved this backpack! I got it before our family trip to Disney and it was just perfect! It fit what i needed and it looks super cute too! I’m in love with it!

Love the appearance and pockets, would just love to be able to pull the straps tighter for a better fit to my back.

Beautiful and wonderfully made.
I love it.

I order this Eliz backpack in Black from 1.5 weeks ago. It didn’t take too long to arrive. The quality is good and worth for the price. My shoulder is comfortable with their shoulder straps.
For some reason, I didn’t receive a confirmation email nor tracking detail after I made a purchase. However, the customer service was very helpful and efficient to provide the details I need.
I will definitely recommend Nordace to friends !!
