Full details

The Herschel Little America Mid Backpack in Grey Striped is designed for adults seeking a stylish and practical way to carry daily essentials. Its primary benefit is offering a slightly smaller, more streamlined version of the iconic Little America silhouette without sacrificing core functionality. A potential caveat for some users might be its 'mid' size, which could be insufficient for those needing to carry extensive gear or larger items.

Faint odor from the material.

Air out the backpack in a well-ventilated area for a few days. Spot clean with a mild solution if necessary.

Zipper is sticking.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax to the teeth of the zipper.
