So Much Storage

My son picked the gray version of this bag. It has two compartments, one being larger than the other. He has plenty of room for folders, lunch box, and a hoodie.

Solid Backpack, Great Laptop Pocket

I buy these for a carry on item for air travel. Pros for this are that it is on the smaller side (if they are too big I overstuffed and have trouble getting them under the seat) and the laptop pocket is well protected. Con is that it seems a little too undersized. What, I said it was good that it was small and bad that it was small? Yes I did, it is a complicated quantum world, and I'm a complicated, quantum guy.

This Bag Can Not Hold Anything

This bag is nice don't get me wrong but if you seriously need space and you think you need a lot of things DON'T GET THIS BAG. It's seriously misconstruing with the front pocket, thinking you will have extra space in the front but it's literally a half pocket with barely any room. If you fill up the front pockets with things it will heavily weigh the bag down and it will look heavy on the front. With these pictures it looks like it can stand up straight BUT THAT'S A STRAIGHT UP LIE. I have had my jester bag for some time now and I am so so so fed up with the non existent space they give you. This is the ideal bag they say you want for college but if you genuinely hold anything more than a laptop and a couple of notebooks then yeah use this bag BUT ANY MORE THAN THAT, then you mine as well settle for something else. The most frustrating part is that if you hold a lot of things in the front pocket, you will be annoyed to put things in the actual bag because you will have to SHOVE items down in the backpack. I can not tell you how many times I have had to struggle to get something out of the main pocket because these bags were not meant to be flexible. The bag literally droops in the front because if there are a couple of things in the front pocket it will literally sag, and it won't look like these professional pictures. So, ideal if you have an ipad or laptop for school, but if you're old school with notebooks or want to use it casually, I would recommend another bag, because I am about to sell off my old one.
