JanSport Cool Student 15-Inch Laptop Backpack-Classic School Bag, Navy, One Size

I needed a new packback for when I travel and this one is perfect. The fabric is nice. Well made and I would recommend.

very nice treat

I got this as my son’s school backpack last year. With all the stuff he hauls around, he usually goes through a backpack in 3-4 months.

Great backpack

As expected, JanSports are really great. My son loved the cool student!

Love this backpack. Plenty of storage room. Lots of pockets for organizing. My only complaint is it’s not machine washable.

Great bookbag for my middle school son. Exactly what I was looking for. Looks and feels very sturdy.

Since I was in Jr high, I remember getting Jansport Backpacks. Now Jansport makes good backpacks but this perticular model only lasted a couple of years. Normally, the Jansport backpacks I get is $75, it is about $30 more but it is genuine leather and suade on top. The problem with the synthetic or cheaper material is it has durability issues. I just got a scholarship to my grad program and had to get a backpack that will last me for more than two years. Spend a bit more get the real deal Jansport and you wont be sorry. This one I will give two stars out of fve and I am really being kind because it lasted over a year, other backpacks in that price range will go bad before the year. There is wear and tear on the straps and it has durability issues so what you pay for is what you get. The new one I got is jet black and it has suade and genuine leather, the previous one was navy blue.

Good size, good quality, lots of space. Looking forward to using this on a weekend trip to San Francisco among other future travel.

I had a Jansport in college, several years ago. Material was, essentially, denim and the bag was almost indestructible. I let my son have it when he started junior high and he managed to damage it...but he could tear up an anvil. This bags material is thin, which is not an issue. Its just different than the old Jansport I had in college. The problem I have with this bag is twofold. First, there are flaps that cover most of the zippers. I assume they are cosmetic because they serve no other purpose other than to discourage someone from unzipping the bag in a crowd while its on the owners back. You have to flip the flap up in order to unzip, which I find mildly infuriating. Also, due to the thin, soft material, the bag falls forward when placed on a flat surface. This isnt unique to this bag. Im pretty sure most of them do this. Regardless if what you put in any of the pockets, the bag migrates forward and tries to fall over on its front. It would be cool if they would make a bag that had a rigid bottom that wouldnt fall over.
