Q & A
Style and function collide with the Marimekko Eppu Black Backpack. Unlike a traditional backpack, the Eppu bag is rectangular in shape and includes a zipper across the top and an exterior, snap-button pocket. Unzip the backpack to find two spacious sections that are the length of the bag and a shallow middle pocket. The natural-toned leather straps are adjustable, making it easy for you to find the perfect fit. Constructed of heavyweight canvas and reinforced interior seams, the Marimekko Eppu Black Backpack is as chic as it is durable.

Care: Hand wash separately 85-65F/20-30C. Remove leather straps before washing. Do not soak, color may fade. Do not bleach, tumble dry or dry clean. Warm iron as needed.
Marimekko is a Finnish design house renowned for its bold, effusive prints and timeless patterns. The company was founded in 1951 by Finnish couple Armi and Viljo Ratia, and the name Marimekko translated literally means “Mary-dress.” Marimekko’s impact reaches far beyond just Finland, howev...

I was not sure if it was too small for me but it’s actually perfect. Not too big and not too small. I love the leather accent it’s different from other marimekko bags.

This bag actually turned out to be even better than expected. The quality of the materials is excellent. The quality of the craftsmanship is excellent. When wearing the backpack the zippered main compartment cannot be accessed due to the straps crossing over the top of the zipper. If you ride trains and buses in the city and worry about people reaching into your back this backpack is the answer. There is an external pocket with a small snap closure which is perfect for a book or in my case a book and a small umbrella. The interior has a small pouch in the middle for carrying your smaller items, i.e. wallet & phone. On either side of the pouch are two large compartments capable of carrying a 15" macbook pro laptop and a few groceries if you happen to be shopping on your way home from work/school.
It is an expensive backpack, but not as expensive as some of the backpacks I was looking at and the quality of the materials, design and craftsmanship was superior the less expensive backpacks I considered.
