Planning our first trip to Disney, I bought myself the other popular brand mini backpack we all know about, because I wanted to match my outfits, and wanted to be cute! My teenage daughter who is naturally very concerned about "aesthetic" wanted a plain white bag. Something simple and less "loud" then the other brand I bought for myself.

I found the Rope drop backpack on tiktok and bought it for her. When it came in, I quickly realized I had made a huge mistake in not ordering us EACH one. And this is all before I even left for our trip.

The Rope Drop backpack has truly thought of everything and created the perfect park day bag!! It is big enough to comfortably carry all the things, without extra keychains and carabiners and add ons, while still being small enough that its cute, fashionable and comfortable to wear all day. We did a test run day using this bag as a purse, and there was no discomfort carrying the bag all day, and I fit twice as much as i had planned to pack for Disney, plus a full 24 oz Owala water bottle. Quality is a 10/10. I have ZERO negative to say about this bag, and cannot wait to leave for our Disney Trip in a few days. If I had enough time, I would order a second so I had one to take myself, but will have to settle for one for my next trip instead.

Thank you, Designer Park Company

Absolutely love this bag! It's the perfect size to carry what I need and what my 2 year old needs for our upcoming trip to Disney. I also purchased a water bottle which fits perfectly inside while still leaving enough room. I added on the backpack cover which is such a nice touch given Florida's weather. Love all the additional features added to this bag! So excited to use this!

I’ve gotten so much use out of my rope drop backpack. I was in need of a new park bag as my Minnie Mouse lounge fly was starting to come apart. I love that I can attach pins to the front of the bag for personalization. I also love that there is a secure way to hold my Mickey ears for when I want to switch to a hat during really sunny days. The photo for the Vanilla vibes color is a little off in my opinion. It comes across as gray in the photo online but it’s more of a cream color which I love. I’m able to bring my essentials to the park and have room for souvenir shopping. I was able to get use out of the hidden cargo net for extra storage as well when a lovely crow decided to drop a load on my husband. He had to get a new spirit jersey and the one that was soiled was held with the extra storage compartment. If you’re debating on spending $100 on a loungefly bag or spending an extra couple bucks on a rope drop bag, I highly highly recommend the rope drop bag!

This bag was great for our recent trip to WDW. I really liked having the hydration system with it....my kids did too, as they kept sneaking my water. (I think I'll have to get them their own backpacks with hydrations systems next time). The only thing to be aware of is the light colored straps (The fabric part) turned a little brown from sweat and sunscreen. Probably wasn't the best color choice for July. In the winter when you might not be wearing tank tops and sweating buckets, it would probably be fine.

While I am impressed with the overall features of the bag and love the neutral vanilla color, I am a bit disappointed that I can't adjust the strap to sit against my back as I've shortened it as much as I can. For reference , I am 5'1 and I think the only way I can remedy this is to buy a chest strap. Please consider this if you plan to make future tweaks/upgrades .
