JanSport Spring Break Classics Series Daypack

This is your pretty average backapack. I bought it for school, and when it arrived I realized it was much smaller than I anticipated (which is really my fault for not checking the dimensions). If you need a backpack that is functional and will carry a decent amount of books, I reccommend this product. However, if you are trying to carry around a library for school, which is what I'm having to do, I would look for something a bit bigger.

Well, let me start off by saing I am a mom of 3 school aged boys and one busy toddler. I purchased 11 Jansport backpacks and that was by no mistake.

My oldest son could use a mediocore book bag and make it last for a few years. My middle son, forget about it, he can go through 3 backpacks in one year. HUH, $20 here, $25 there, $20 again. One year, It looked as if my son had dragged his bookbag across the ground with his brothers skating on it, Or, lets say it looked as if it was tied under the bus with a watermelon in it and guess what it burned through the bag. YOu get the picture. This went on for 2 years. I wanted to make sure his next year wouldn't be the same. SO.... I thought, you want quality, and you don't want to pay an arm and a leg for it. HMMMM! $40 that's not bad, but will this bag last?

It's 2 months before the end of the school year, and I must say this backpack will last not just next year but for another 3 years to come. It looks brand new. I am so Proud of him, also myself for getting on the ball fast. The color of his is Hamster Brown, the material worried me because it doesn't seem like the same durable material like the older Jansport, Yet, it seems sturdy, able to take some damage and come out the winner. The straps are a little stiff at first but are quickly broken in, the back support is great and the simplicity of one front pocket and one big pocket makes it easy to locate items in your backpack. Being waterproof or atleast it seems to be, in the light rain, my kids books don't get wet. I couldn't ask for more in a bag.

My older son who isn't hard on bags is still taking care of his backpack and it looks marvelous. I'd say his could last another 5-6 years. The Color of his is Thai Pepper.

My little Man who is just a bud, also is great on bags, his backpack is looking marvelous as well at only 2 months left. Not a scratch or missing thread. His bag is Blue and Black and will last I am sure.

Being a Frugal MOM of four, I wanted a QUALITY bag that I was sure would last for more than one year. I remembered the quality bag I purchased for myself in HighSchool and Jansport was it's name. I feel blessed to be able to provide not only one of my boys with the same, but all of my boys with the name I love and trust on their backs. The other Bags, they are waiting for them. Hey I said I was frugal, I had coupons, so I stocked up. LOL!

I ALWAYS USE BACKPACKS, AND ALWAYS SEEM TO STUFF THEM TO THE LIMIT. SO FAR, THIS ONE CAN TAKE THE PUNISHMENT! VERY WELL MADE, AND THE ZIPPERS HAVENT GOTTEN STUCK ON THE TEETH ONCE, ANOTHER PROBLEM I HAVE HAD WITH PREVIOUS BACKPACKS. AND, AS ALWAYS, FREE SHIPPING VIA MY AMAZON PRIME MEMBERSHIP MAKES IT A WONDERFUL DEAL.

looks good in pic. but i didnt realise its actually smaller till i got it,,,,,
also not that good material used to know for Jansport !!!

The kids wanted something basic, but durable. I wanted something inexpensive. We all got our way. Can't beat it for the price.

I think this is the first back pack to last two whole school years! I bought this for my 8th grader. It's a good size, has roomy front pocket. Most importantly it has stood up to wear and tear very well. I will buy this again.

This bookbag is slightly smaller than what I anticipated, but it fits my son's school supplies just fine. The only thing that he can't fit in there is his Five-Star Binder - unless he shoves it in and fights with it. Other than that, I love the JanSport name and believe that these bags are made with quality product. Highly recommend!!

This bag i bought for my daughter,for school and it was what i expected,quality,size and the right price.

This is a nice backpack but not as substantial as I was expecting for the price. Granted I am a bargain shopper but I will pay more *IF* it will last. And that's what I thought I was doing here but once it was in my hands, it wasn't what I was expecting. IMHO, this is just a step above the cheap character backpacks that don't even last a year but it's also twice the cost. If it lasts more then a year, I'd be surprised. My dd loves the pattern so I gave it 4 stars instead of 3.

My son was looking for a sturdy, no frills book bag. He is loving this one! It came very quickly and in superb condition. Thanks.
