Love this bag!

I purchased one of these backpacks and had it for two school years. It has plenty of room for all of your school supplies and is very durable. It has some wear and tear, which is expected and normal. The only thing I would say, is to be careful with the zippers because they can fall off pretty easily. Overall, the bag was very durable, nice, and spacious. Would definitely recommend.

Great Backpack!

This is a great product! The only flaw is that the main compartment zipper unzips but not from the zippers. I can fix it every time by going over it with the zipper, but just a minor flaw.

15+ years of Use!

I have owned this back and used it regularly for the gym, travel, etc and it's still in very good shape after over 15 years. Very good quality overall. I am looking at buying the new model soon.

Tear in back pack.

I've had this for 3 years. I use it daily for school, hiking, and traveling. It did have a tear near the zip about 1 1/2 years in when I loaded heavy books. The tear has not increased since then, even though I use it in rough conditions. Over all is a, versatile, and rugged back pack. Although, the outermost pouch makes it difficult to pull stuff out of the larger pouch, when it is fully filled.

I wouldn't buy this again.

The back pack was poorly designed. The back pack flops over when you open it. The smaller compartment always gets in the way of the main compartment, making it really annoying and difficult to access your items, especially if you're in a hurry. The back pack is also not as rugged.

Would recommend highly

Perfect pack for a weekend getaway with lots of room for expansion. Very durable and ergonomic! Just upgraded from an older Jester model that wasn't even worn out after 5 years.. plan to do the same with this pack.
