Rugged

So far so good. Seems rugged and built to last but time will tell

Great Bag

I bought this bag about two weeks ago. I really love it. It looks great very comfortable to use. has too many buckets. I recognize my stuff easily.

Well Built, But Not Roomy

My son picked this for middle school. It’s well made, not too heavy when empty, but it’s a tight fit with just a 1.5” binder, one spiral notebook, one comp notebook and 3 plastic folders… no room for books or anything extra. The second / back section is a tight fit for his iPad. The water bottle pockets are large. But the elastic holding them in place had no give , making it hard to get anything into them.

Great Backpack

Super convenient and has tons of room, perfect for College

Great Features But Maybe A Little Small

I bought this for my 7th grade son. He has always had Jansport backpacks which easily fit everything he needs. This fit his big binder, Chromebook and lunch but after its full, it tends to tip over because of the rounded bottom. Jansport never did that. We also struggled to fit his P.E. shoes in while he waited 2 weeks for a locker. My other small complaint is that the water bottle holder feels a little shallow for a 32 oz. bottle, so it feels top-heavy, like it's going to fall out, but to my knowledge, it has not yet. All in all, it's a great backpack with lots of well-placed pockets and my son seems to really like it.
