## Our verdict

### Reasons to buy

-   Superb workmanship and made from durable materials that surely last.
-   Great price for the quality it offers.
-   Has numerous pockets for your stuff.
-   Covered by a lifetime warranty that the company honors.

### Things to consider

-   Some reviewer says that the back padding can make your back sweaty as it doesn't allow much ventilation.

## What reviewers said

-   "I like the color why I first picked this bag. And never knew I would have loved it so much. It's actually bigger than it looks with its extended straps. It can hold a ton of things. I took it camping. The straps are super comfortable because it's padded"
-   "Love all the pockets! My 15-inch laptop fits perfectly in the laptop sleeve with room to spare at the top. It is cushioned on the bottom so there isn't that "clunk" when you put the backpack down. Jansport has never disappointed! I use this for traveling and it's comfortable to wear and fits under the seat without any problems."
-   "What is there to say about JansSports bags? If you say that is a JanSport's bag you already saying that the quality is amazing, plus the lifetime guarantee. So let's just talk about the features of this bag: Several pockets, for organization freaks this is amazing because they are not just generic pockets. The back part of it can hold either a Notebook (though the description says a 15inch, it fits my 17.2inch notebook with extra room) or a water bag.There are two main pockets, with plenty of room for all your books, art supplies, whatever you want to fit in there."
