The Marimekko backpack (”Everything”) was delivered on time, and the design looks nice (with the exception of the oversized and somewhat tacky Marimekko label on the keychain).However, the laptop doesn’t fit properly in the "laptop compartment", the magnetic closures don’t hold securely—so you risk losing items—and the mechanism for opening and tightening the bag is stiff and difficult to use.When the backpack is filled, the top flap doesn’t fully cover the opening, and the straps don’t hold the weight properly—they loosen completely under load. Also the shoulder straps are made of a slippery material, which causes them to slide off your shoulders easily.You also can’t fully pack the backpack, because if you do, it becomes impossible to close—the top flap is simply too small.While the backpack looks stylish, it seems clear that it hasn’t been properly tested in real use.What has happened to Marimekko’s quality?!
