I received this backpack for Christmas 2014. Not quite 2 years ago. I have used it some but not a lot. It's in very good condition overall. Still very clean. I like the newer one that has the pockets on the outside. I think it will be more functional. So I got my backpack out and was going to list it on eBay when I noticed that one of the straps had a problem. I really don't think this is from use. The other side does not have any problems. I think the space on this side is tighter and there for rubbed the leather away. My problem is that I am over an hour from a Burberry store. If I make the trip is Burberry known for making repairs? I'm more familiar with LV and know they would. Thanks for your help!
