If you are looking for a bag that's both functional and stylish, Herschel Classic is here. It has a minimalist look but performs well as an everyday use backpack. Made of sturdy polyester, it offers great protection to your items while you are on the go. It features adjustable straps and has enough space for most laptops and books.

The Settlement pack is also stylish and simple. One big main compartment and a small zippered front pocket give you the space you need. The bag is made of strong, sturdy, thick nylon fabric. Herschel Settlement has a vintage look with modern hues.
