This is a black Northface Backpack with gold hardware on zippers, stitching, and logo. Not bulky. It has 3 compartments, and a place to securely store a laptop. Two compartments on the side, one for storing a water bottle. It also has a small top compartment and adjustable straps to accommodate anyone. It does have a highlighter stain on an inside area but barley noticeable. Great school bag!
