love

so happy with this backpack!! It has a nice non bulky look while still being able to fit a lot! I pack my laptop, lunch, planner, and gym clothes in it no problem.

The Exile is sooooo lightweight

I have sleeves and small bags for my laptop so this bag couldn't be better. I also ordered the two-color brown version. Really nice.

Worth the money and the packaging was better than expected

Cool style, poor quality

I still love the look of this backpack - I bought it with the matching duffel - plus I love supporting small businesses, so I was really excited about this purchase! It's also a good size, though I wish it had padding on the laptop sleeve and more padding on straps/back for comfort. But it was mainly a fashion-driven choice for me. Now after less than two years, the zipper crapped out and the seam across the top is splitting. I use the backpack almost daily, but I don't pack it particularly full or heavy. The zipper on the duffel was a goner much sooner. Unfortunately, Hex does not stand behind the quality of its products and only offers a 1 year limited warranty. I am currently shopping around a few brands for a new set of bags - hopefully that will hold up better to normal use!

Useful backpack...

This is a well designed and useful backpack with enough space for all of the items I transport daily. I trust that it will be durable enough to withstand the impact of my daily use for the next few years.
